'Gigs' refers to live performances, usually by musicians or comedians, and can also mean short-term or temporary jobs, especially in the context of the 'gig economy'.
用法与细微差别
Informal term in both meanings. In music, it almost always means a live performance; 'play gigs' and 'book gigs' are common. In work, 'gigs' refers to freelance or short-term tasks, often found in 'the gig economy.' Don't confuse with 'jobs' (more formal, longer-term).
