- 1nA2/ˈhiːtɪŋ/暖氣
the equipment in a house, school, or other building that keeps the rooms warm, and the warm air it sends out.
示範例句 · Example
It got cold last night, so Dad turned the heating on.
逐字昨晚變冷了,所以爸爸把暖氣打開了。
「heating」講的是「讓房間或整棟建築變暖的那一整套設備」——鍋爐、牆上的暖氣片、地板下的管子,以及它們送出來的暖空氣。它是不可數名詞,所以說 the heating,不說 a heating;「開暖氣」英文是 turn the heating on。可以想成 heat(熱)加上 -ing,就像「持續把熱送進屋子」這件事本身變成了那套設備的名字;跟 heater 容易搞混——heater 是一台可以搬來搬去的暖爐,heating 是整棟房子共用的系統。

One way to picture it: the whole warming system of a building — the boiler, the , the radiators under the windows — plus the warm air it pushes into the rooms. In English the equipment and the warmth it produces sit under one word.
