喜樂美語

Picture a huge official building with gates and gardens, where a king or queen lives and where the business of the crown gets done. Two things follow. Because the building stands for the people inside it, news reports can say the Palace said when they mean the royal household. And because it is the picture of , any very grand house can be called a palace.

可以想成：一棟巨大的官方建築，有大門、有庭園，國王或女王住在裡面，王室的事務也在裡面處理。由此長出兩件事。一是建築可以代表裡面的人，所以新聞說 the Palace said 時，指的是王室方面；二是它就是「氣派」的代表畫面，所以任何極為華麗的宅邸也可以被叫做 palace。
