1. 1nB2/ˈændrɔɪd/仿生人

    a robot that is made to look and move exactly like a real human.

    示範例句 · Example

    In the film, the android looked so human that no one knew it was a machine.

    逐字在那部電影裡,那個仿生人看起來太像真人,沒有人知道它是機器。

    android 是科幻小說、電影裡常出現的「長得跟真人一模一樣的機器人」。可以想成一般 robot 可能是金屬手臂或方形身體,但 android 外表、動作都像真人,你可能一時分不出來。台灣常譯「仿生人」或「人形機器人」。(注意:手機系統 Android 是專有品牌名,跟這個字用法不同。)

core核心畫面

A machine built so carefully in a person's shape that at a glance you would not know — the face, the walk, the hands. What makes it an android rather than just a robot is the human likeness.

可以想成:一台做得極像人的機器——臉、走路的樣子、手的動作,乍看之下分不出來。它跟一般 robot 的差別就在這個「像人」:工廠裡的機械手臂是 robot,但不會有人叫它 android。這個字幾乎只出現在科幻小說、電影和相關討論裡。
