I.e意思正是嗎
"i.e." 是拉丁文 "id est" 的縮寫,意思是 "that is" 或 "in other words",用來解釋或提供進一步的說明。它可以用來引出一個同義的陳述,或者用來澄清一個詞語或短語的意思。
例如:
- The company's flagship product is a smartphone, i.e., a handheld mobile device.
- She meant to say "computer", i.e., a device used for processing data electronically.
在這些例子中,"i.e." 後面的陳述是用來進一步解釋前面的詞語或短語。
與 "i.e." 相關的另一個常見縮寫是 "e.g.",它是 "exempli gratia" 的縮寫,意思是 "for example" 或 "for instance"。它用來提供例子或樣本。
例如:
- The store sells many types of fruits, e.g., apples, oranges, and bananas.
- She enjoys various sports, e.g., swimming, tennis, and skiing.
在這些例子中,"e.g." 後面的列表是用來舉例說明前面的總括性陳述。
