春運(yùn)來(lái)襲
01
春運(yùn)
Spring Transportation ?
the Spring Festival travel season?
Spring Festival travel rush?
春運(yùn)一般開(kāi)始于除夕得前十五天
并持續(xù)持續(xù)40多天左右
已經(jīng)形成人潮擁擠得一個(gè)
“季度”(season)
rush:a very busy time when a lot of people are shopping or traveling
rush作名詞時(shí),表示高峰期和繁忙活動(dòng)期
所以說(shuō)“春運(yùn)”比較標(biāo)準(zhǔn)得翻譯為:
the Spring Festival travel season
或者
Spring Festival travel rush
It's difficult to buy a train ticket during the Spring Festival travel season.

02
關(guān)于“春運(yùn)”得詞
high season
高峰期
The high season is the time of year when a place has most tourists or visitors.
如果是持續(xù)時(shí)間較長(zhǎng)得高峰期,
用high season
相反,淡季則是:low season
而持續(xù)時(shí)間相對(duì)來(lái)說(shuō)比較短
像上下班得高峰期
則用rush hour會(huì)更恰當(dāng)一些
Don't travel to Thailand in March, It’s high season.
