释义

Men who play sports, especially in competitions. It can also refer to men who are athletic or interested in sports.

用法与细微差别

'Sportsmen' is a formal and somewhat old-fashioned way to refer to male athletes. Today, 'athletes' is more common and gender-neutral. Do not use 'sportsmen' for women (use 'sportswomen' or 'athletes'), and avoid confusing it with 'sportsmanlike' which means fair and respectful in sports.
