    口語Using or making very advanced electronic machines and equipment, especially computers. Hi-tech is another spelling of high-tech, and the two words mean exactly the same thing.

    逐字我們學校圖書館有一套高科技系統,它讓你用你的手機借書。

    「hi-tech」就是「high-tech」的另一種拼法,兩個字意思完全一樣,只是把 high 寫成 hi,看起來比較短、比較口語,常出現在廣告、產品名稱和報紙標題裡。它的意思是「用了很先進的電子機器,尤其是電腦」,通常放在名詞前面:a hi-tech company(高科技公司)、hi-tech equipment(高科技設備)。可以想成「high 是把技術放在很高的地方」——高到目前人做得出來的最上面那一層,所以是高科技。

core核心畫面

Think of the word as a label you stick on a thing to say 'this runs on the newest machines' — especially computers and electronics. It is simply a shorter spelling of high-tech, cut down the way people cut words down in everyday writing; the meaning does not change at all.

可以想成一張貼在東西上的標籤,寫著「這裡面裝的是最新的機器」——特別是電腦和電子設備。它就是 high-tech 的另一種拼法,把 high 寫成 hi,像日常書寫裡常見的縮寫一樣;意思完全一樣,沒有多一分也沒有少一分。
