"nan" in Chinese (Simplified)

馕饼奶奶

Definition

有两个常见含义:(1) 一种在坦都尔烤炉中烤制的柔软印度扁面饼,也拼作 'naan'。(2) 英式非正式用语,指奶奶/外婆,尤其在英格兰北部。两种用法在日常英语中都很常见。

Usage Notes (Chinese (Simplified))

面饼含义:'nan' 和 'naan' 两种拼法都正确;'naan' 在美食文章中稍微更常见。常见搭配:'garlic nan'、'peshwari nan'、'nan bread'(严格来说是冗余的,因为 'nan' 本身就是面饼)。奶奶含义:主要是英式英语,尤其是英格兰北部和工人阶层。类似 'nana',但更具英国特色。上下文通常能区分含义。
