喜樂美語
  1. 1nA2/ˈkoʊlə/ · /ˈkəʊlə/可樂

    A sweet brown drink with bubbles in it, sold in cans and bottles. The word also means one can, bottle, or glass of this drink.

    示範例句 · Example

    Leo bought a can of cola from the shop after the game.

    逐字里歐在比賽之後從那家店買了一罐可樂。

    cola 是「棕色、甜甜、有氣泡」那一類汽水的通稱，不是某一個牌子——Coca-Cola、Pepsi 都算 cola。它兩種用法都有：講飲料本身時不可數，前面不加 a（Do you want cola or juice?）；講「一罐、一杯」時就可以數，也有複數（Two colas, please. ＝ 兩杯可樂）。可以想成：這個字就像從 Coca-Cola 這個商品名字的後半段長出來的，後來同樣顏色、同樣味道的汽水都借用了它。

core核心畫面

You can think of the dark brown fizzy drink in a can — sweet, bubbly, served cold. The word covers both the drink as a type (a taste, a category on a menu) and one serving of it, so two colas, please means two glasses or cans.

可以想成罐子裡那種深褐色、有氣泡的甜飲料，冰過再喝。這個字同時罩住兩種說法：一種是把它當「這類飲料」講（一種口味、菜單上的一欄），另一種是拿它數份數——Two colas, please 就是「兩杯／兩罐可樂」。它是這類飲料的通稱，Coke、Pepsi 是牌子，cola 是牌子背後的那個品項。
