喜樂美語
  1. 1aC1/ˈʌpkʌmɪŋ/即將到來的

    Happening or coming very soon.

    示範例句 · Example

    Everyone is getting ready for the upcoming exam.

    逐字每個人都在為即將到來的考試做準備。

    「upcoming」形容「很快就要發生、即將到來的」事情，多半放在名詞前面，例如 the upcoming election（即將到來的選舉）、the upcoming concert。跟 coming 意思接近，upcoming 更常用在正式的活動、事件預告。

core核心畫面

One way to picture upcoming: something already on the calendar, moving towards you. It sits in front of the noun (the upcoming election), and it points only forward — an event that has not happened yet but is close enough to name.

可以想成 upcoming 是「已經排在行事曆上、正朝你走過來」的那件事。它放在名詞前面（the upcoming election），而且只指向前方——那件事還沒發生，但近到已經可以講出名字了。
