1. 1nA2/ˈkɑːliːɡ/ · /ˈkɒliːɡ/同事

    someone you work with, especially in an office, school, or government job.

    示範例句 · Example

    I'd like you to meet a colleague of mine, Aisha.

    逐字我想要你認識我的一位同事,阿伊莎。

    colleague 指跟你在同一個地方工作的人,特別是辦公室、學校、政府機關這類比較正式的職場。跟 friend 不同,colleague 強調的是「一起共事」這層關係,不一定表示兩人感情很好;比英式口語的 workmate 更正式一點,美式英語則常用 coworker。

    常見搭配

    • close colleague

      親近的同事

      a colleague you know and trust well

      She and her close colleague always help each other with hard projects.

    • former colleague

      以前的同事

      someone you used to work with, but not anymore

      He still keeps in touch with a former colleague from his last job.

    • a colleague of mine

      我的一位同事

      a common way to introduce someone you work with
