- 1nA2/dɪˈzɜːrt/ · /dɪˈzɜːt/甜點
sweet food that you eat after the main part of a meal
示範例句 · Example
What are we having for dessert tonight?
逐字我們今晚要有什麼當甜點？
「dessert」是正餐吃完後的那一道甜食——冰淇淋、蛋糕、水果、布丁都算。常見說法是 have something for dessert（某樣東西當飯後甜點）。它跟 starter / appetizer（開胃菜）和 main course（主菜）排在同一條用餐順序裡：先開胃、再主菜，最後才是 dessert。英國口語有時說 pudding 或 sweet，意思也是飯後甜點。注意拼寫：dessert（雙 s）才是甜點；desert（單 s）是沙漠。
