健身車的英文怎麼說 (已解決)

Pic CC-BY-SA 2.0 by rmgimages


常見的有兩種寫法：

stationary bike

stationary=不動的
不動的腳踏車，就是放在室內、原地騎的腳踏車。

exercise bike

exercise=運動


稍加變化也都是可接受的：
stationary bicycle
exercise bicycle
stationary exercise bike


照慣例英解說明，自認英文不好的人、我更要鼓勵您努力看完英解：

a machine for taking exercise which looks similar to and is used like a bicycle but does not move from one place. (cambridge dictionary)

a bicycle that stays in one place, used for physical exercise. (macmillan dictionary)

背書有兩種 1. 背課文那種背 recite Cambridge字典 ：to say a piece of writing aloud from memory, or to publicly state a list of things 不過這個背是指記好了、開始「背出來」的背誦。 要指正在默背的動作的話，可以用memorize、rote（死背）、或prepare for recitation（較少用， 不過外國人很聰明應該聽得懂 ）。 2. 保證的背（源自在票據背後簽名） endorsement（異體字indorsement） 這是一個法律術語，指的是在票據上簽名，票據所規定之權利由背書人轉讓給被背書人。但也有衍生出保證、支持的意思，例如為候選人背書等。 照慣例 Cambridge字典的說明 ： the act of signing the back of a cheque, bill of exchange, etc. that has your name on it in order to give your permission for it to be paid to someone else a public statement made by someone saying that they approve of or support someone or something
