现在我开始讲我的故事:) G. D& p% l. P' }) M5 c0 v; u, \
有一天,一个黑人问我,"where r u from?" 我答:"China"接着他问:"China has 50 nations, is that true?"5 G# o) p% f; t% C. I
我当时把nations理解为民族(不怕您见笑),所以我答:"yes, even more."
, A* Y6 e$ g8 E% `# o C 紧接着这黑人说,"Do u know what nation mean? it means country."
, Z( ~1 L1 l& }* M0 @) i2 c$ C这下子把我气着了,我立刻翻了脸,怒视着他问“what u mean?why u ask such question?”- p) C# N3 V; M2 o9 Y
他看我怒了,不停滴sorry,sorry,然后滚蛋了。- S7 N: l7 a& e: Z2 _' t T5 V
我也不知道我这样做是对还是错,只是觉得英语不好,很障碍。

Nation has different meanings in different contexts. In worldwide diplomacy, nation can mean country or sovereign state.[1] The United Nations, for instance, speaks of how it was founded after the Second World War with “51 countries” and currently has “192 member states”.[2] Nation may more broadly refer to a community of people who share a common territory and government—but who are not necessarily a sovereign state; and who often share a common language, race, descent, and/or history, such as the “Palestinian nation”.[1] The word nation can more specifically refer to a tribe of North American Indians, such as the Cherokee Nation.[1] |
