看到一封信写:
This is a feed-back from our previous interlock with COMPANY A, pls help schedule a meeting after spring festival.
这linterlock什么意思根据上下文能猜出来。但从没见过这个用法。于是查了一下。
当名词
Noun
- S: (n) interlock, ignition interlock (a device that prevents an automotive engine from starting) "car theives know how to bypass the ignition interlock"
- S: (n) mesh, meshing, interlock, interlocking (the act of interlocking or meshing) "an interlocking of arms by the police held the crowd in check"
那肯定取名词第2个解释啦。那怎么翻译好呢?感觉怎么都不合适啊?用这个词就不合适。
