【翻譯解析】
1.“土豪”這個(gè)詞首次被延用到虛擬世界時(shí),是用來(lái)形容那些愿意在電腦游戲上花大錢(qián)的人:“被延用到”可譯為beextended to,extend意為“擴(kuò)展,延伸”!疤摂M世界”可譯為the virtual world。
2.黃金象征著高貴、財(cái)富和興旺:“象征著”可譯為symbolize,如:Olive branch symbolizes peace.(橄欖枝象征著和平。)。
3.“土豪金”曾在許多零售渠道脫銷(xiāo):“脫銷(xiāo)”可譯sell out!傲闶矍馈笨勺g為retail channel,其中channel有許多詞意,如“海峽;河床;通道;渠道;頻道”等,使用時(shí)需注意。
