喜樂美語
  1. 1nB1/ˈnaɪtklʌb/夜店

    a place that opens late at night and stays open into the early morning, where people go to dance, listen to music, and have drinks.

    示範例句 · Example

    The new nightclub near the station is open until three in the morning.

    逐字車站附近那家新的夜店開到凌晨三點。

    「nightclub」指的是晚上才開、而且開到很晚的店：裡面放音樂、有舞池，大人在那裡跳舞、喝東西、跟朋友聊天。可以想成 night（夜晚）＋ club（一群人聚在一起的地方）合起來——一個「屬於夜晚的聚會場所」。日常英文裡，大家多半直接說 club（We went to a club last night），nightclub 是講清楚一點、或寫下來時用的說法。

core核心畫面

Think of a place that only wakes up when everywhere else is closing: doors open late, music loud, people dancing with drinks in their hands, and it keeps going into the early hours of the morning.

可以想成一個別人都在打烊時才醒過來的場所：門很晚才開，音樂放得很大聲，人們拿著酒在裡面跳舞，一路熱鬧到天快亮。字面上就是 night（夜）＋ club（有門、有人管、要進去的場所）兩個部分拼起來，畫面比較像「夜裡才營業的那種店」。
