Remote Manipulator

大概要翻成遙控操作手臂之類的吧。

Heinlein which features a man who invents and uses such devices), is a device which, through electronic, hydraulic, or mechanical linkages, allows a hand-like mechanism to be controlled by a human operator. The purpose of such a device is usually to move or manipulate hazardous materials for reasons of safety. (wikipedia)

[已解決] zh或zh-tw, zh-cn是什麼的縮寫？

問：常見在很多網站的網址都會有zh-tw或zh-cn，雖然可以猜到zh-tw是指台灣正體中文、zh-cn是中國大陸簡體中文，但zh到底是什麼的縮寫呢？ 答：zh是 zh ong wen的縮寫，zhong wen就是「中文」的發音啦。 zh這麼常用其實也是有原因的，因為它是 ISO 639-1 中定義的代碼，既然是國際標準，當然大部分網站就會遵循囉！
