“站票”怎么說(shuō)
[ 2007-02-15 16:23 ]
春運(yùn)回家，一票難求。對(duì)普通老百姓而言，最沒(méi)辦法的辦法就是搶購(gòu)一張“站票”了。“站票”怎么說(shuō)？看看下面這篇題為“Track of my
tears”（《辛酸的旅程》）的新聞報(bào)道：
Migrant workers, employees working outside their hometowns and students are
the main body of passengers during Spring Festival.
Students and migrant workers are generally distributed in the cheaper
hard-seat coaches, crowded with people who bought the standing-room tickets.
These passengers stand, sit or even lie on the aisle. Many take children with
them.
報(bào)道說(shuō)，春節(jié)返鄉(xiāng)，學(xué)生和民工一般購(gòu)買(mǎi)低價(jià)的硬座票，而硬座車廂里又?jǐn)D滿了只有站票的無(wú)座乘客。
顯然，“站票”相應(yīng)的英文表達(dá)是“standing-room ticket”。稍作提醒噢，直譯而來(lái)的“standing
ticket”絕對(duì)語(yǔ)義不通，詞綴“-room”在此表示“space”（空間）。
順便提一下，報(bào)道中的“hard seat”指的是“硬座”，相應(yīng)的，“軟座”則是“soft seat”，而“軟臥”則可表示為“cushioned
berth”。此外，為乘客訂票的“訂票點(diǎn)”可表達(dá)為“tickets-booking agency/office”。
