最近疫情關係掀起了搶購潮,搶購的英文是什麼?
1. When I work on a laptop outside, I always have to worry that I have to go [2]scramble and find an outlet when the battery is low.
2. In the housing boom, people are [1]scrambling to buy property before prices rise even further.
[1] to scramble to do something
[2] to scramble and do something
這裡通常是指很多人一起去搶某些東西,並非像搶匪一樣搶東西不付錢,而是大家都想要某東西,以合法正當的手段得到。
scramble = 跟很多人一起搶某個有限的資源,也就是「去搶」的意思,這是標準的英文
