［時事英文］「超前部署 」英文怎麼說？
　
由於最近這個詞出現的頻率很高，所以陸續有同學寫信問我「超前部署」的英文是不是「advanced deployment 」？
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
１、「advanced」意味著在「程度／層次」（level）上是更高等的、更高級的，例如：
　
➣ an advanced English course
　進階英語課程／高階英語課程／高級英語課程（相對於初、中級）
　
➣ advanced learners of English
　進階英語學習者／高階英語學習者／高級英語學習者
　
➣ advanced physics
　高等物理
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
２、「advanced」也可以表示非常現代的、最新的（modern），例如：
　
➣ advanced weapon systems
　先進武器系統
　
➣ advanced technology
　先進技術／前瞻技術
　
➣ high levels of unemployment in advanced industrial societies
　先進工業社會的高失業率
　
詳參：https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/advanced
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
３、若你想表達某事發生在其他事之前，則須用——「in advance (of something)」。例如：
　
➣ I should warn you in advance that I’m not a very good dancer.
　我應該事先告訴你，我不是一位出色的舞者。
　
➣ Many thanks, in advance, for your help.
　在此先感謝您的幫助。
　
➣ The Assembly passed legislation which required organizers of demonstrations to apply three days in advance for government approval.
　議會通過了立法，要求示威的組織者提前三天申請政府批准。
　
詳參：https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/advance
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
４、在中文的語境裡，「超前部署」本為國軍術語，用於軍事上的部署與配置。因今年疫情而輾轉進入公眾視野，也成為公共衛生的防疫語彙。在英文裡，若想表達兵力上的預置，你可以說：
　
➣ the early deployment of troops
　
➣ deploy troops in advance (of something)
　
➣ deploy troops in preparation (of something)
　
➣ deploy troops ahead of something
　
「超前部署」見於國軍「主動防救」的災防思維，國軍採「超前部署、預置兵力、隨時防救」的作法，以因應重大天災對國家安全的威脅。詳參：https://bit.ly/2WuyIXb
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
５、在英文裡，「advanced deployment」雖是慣用語，但多用於計算（computing）以及網路管理（network administration），其中涉及較高階的（higher-level）電腦或系統的安裝過程，以利於真實環境裡的高效作業。

６、可能有些文章會使用「advance deployment」來作為「超前部署」的英文用法，以表達對流行疫情所採取的準備措施。但在英文裡，這並不是常見的用法：
　
That decision did make inconveniences to passengers and losses to THSRC, but that measure in conjunction with Taiwan's “advance deployment” has indeed effectively reduced the risk of people being over-exposed in mass transportation.
　
詳參：https://yhoo.it/3dHexLq
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
７、「超前部署」雖可置於防疫的語境中，但在英文裡並沒有一個全然相應的用法。而在中文與英文的脈絡下，其所關聯的語意也不盡相同。英語使用者通常會這麼說：
　
❖ 用法Ａ： (early) preventive measures
　
“A contact-tracing app developed in Singapore as a preventive measure against the coronavirus.”

詳參《紐約時報》：https://nyti.ms/3bjfxDT
　
“For the general public, basic preventive measures include keeping a safe distance of 1 to 2 metres, washing hands with soap for 20 seconds or using a hand sanitiser, wearing a face mask if crowded situations cannot be avoided and not touching one’s eyes, nose, and mouth.”

詳參《路透社》：https://reut.rs/3fEMZrK
　
❖ 用法Ｂ：「something＋prevention measures」也頗為常見
　
“Efforts are better spent boosting infection-prevention measures at hospitals.”

詳參《經濟學人》：https://econ.st/2YUoMYu
　
“Vice Premier Chen Chi-Mai shared Taiwan's deployment of big data in our epidemic-prevention measures with two professors visiting from Stanford, C. Jason Wang, director of the Center for Policy, Outcomes and Prevention, and health law scholar Michelle M. Mello.”

詳參中華民國外交部：https://bit.ly/3cnuRk6
　
★★★★★★★★★★★★
　
其他可以使用的相關片語：
　
➣ take protective measures
　
➣ implement preventive measures
　
➣ infection prevention and control
　
➣ early prevention and detection
　
➣ immediate government intervention

📌 Internet Slang 📌 Part 2
老外聊天必知！『線上聊天限定』縮寫

📣貼心提醒：本篇縮寫請勿用在客戶寫信等正式場合喲！💙

如同中文論壇（如批踢踢或Dcard）有固定的縮寫用法，國外聊天室也一樣。有時候同一個縮寫，中英用法可是大不同～

1. OP
2. NSFW
3. FYEO
4. BOT
5. FIFY, FTFY
6. TL;DR

-
In addition to abbreviations of common phrases, there are also a lot of abbreviations that are specific to online communication. This most basic is probably 📌 OP (original poster), which refers to the person who started a thread on an online forum.

Another handy term if you want to post a link to something that contains nudity, profanity or other adult content is 📌 NSFW (not safe for work). This is a friendly reminder to people not to open the link at work so they can avoid embarrassment. Or if you don’t want someone to share your message with others, you can use 📌 FYEO (for your eyes only).

If someone goes off topic in a thread, you can use 📌 BOT (back on topic) to indicate that you’re returning to the original topic. And if you want to correct an error that someone made, you can write 📌 FIFY (fixed it for you) or FTFY (fixed that for you) after your correction.

Have you ever followed somebody’s link to an article or post that was long and maybe a little boring? In this situation, you can warn others with 📌 TL;DR (too long; don’t read, or too long; didn’t read). And if you want to be helpful, you can follow the TL;DR with a short summary of the content in question—if you actually read it!

【✍關鍵單字】
1. thread：「討論串」或「發文串」
2. nudity：「裸體」，當名詞。
3. profanity：「髒話」
4. go off topic：「離題」

【📕中譯】
網路縮寫除了來自日常片語外，有更多是專門用來線上溝通。最常見的大概是OP（original poster，指『原po』或『樓主』），跟中文論壇用法不同，這裡的OP指一開始發表言論或文章的人。

另一個好用的縮寫則是NSFW（not safe for work，工作場合不宜），當你轉貼給別人的連結含有裸體、髒話等成人內容，就可以用這個縮寫，善意提醒對方不要在工作場合上點開，以免窘境發生。如果你不希望對方把你的訊息分享給別人時，則可以寫FYEO（for your eyes only，限收件者閱讀）。

如果有人在同一則討論下方離題，你就可以寫BOT（back on topic，回到正題），接下來繼續討論正題。要是你發現前面討論串有錯誤，你想修正，就可以在你更正的內容後面加上FIFY（fixed it for you）或FTFY（fixed that for you，兩者都翻作『幫你更正了』）。

你是否曾經點開某人的轉貼，卻發現那篇文章實在有夠長，甚至有點無聊？遇到這種狀況，你可以在該連結下方寫TD;DR（too long; don’t read，或too long didn’t read，太長勿入）來警告後面的人。如果你想當個好人，你甚至可以在寫出TD;DR之後，加上兩三句你對這篇又臭又長文章的總結──如果你真的看得完的話！

《純真的愛》
True Love
(English version below)

感情的事，本來就是你情我願。
兩個人都是大人了。
當初你們親密時，難道他有拿槍逼妳嗎？

怎麼現在妳就變成母夜叉，還請人幫妳下降頭呢？
那根本不是愛，是恨。
妳跟有婦之夫在一起，本來就是錯。

醒醒，快醒醒！
這是一種惡行，不能夠用法術去對付不懂法術的人。
拿妳錢的降頭師，將來也一定會有禍害。
妳的這個舉動，害了多少人，下一世妳都得還。

我們做什麼都瞞不過天地，鬼神是無所不在的。
現在妳害他，未來他也找人來對付妳，這樣冤冤相報，何時了？

妳要趕快洗刷妳下地獄的惡因。
悔不當初以外，妳也要把妳的故事告訴別人，提醒大家千萬不要走妳的路。
這是一個「大善」！
將不好的事情拋出心外，才能真正地掃除妳的憂鬱。

妳希望別人對妳專一，妳要先能夠對人專一。

⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯

It always takes two hands to clap when it comes to affairs of the heart. Both of you are willing parties, and mature adults. When you shared intimate moments, did he use a gun to force you?

Why did you turn into an evil demoness, even hiring a sorcerer to cast malevolent spells onto him?

That is not love at all, but hatred.

You were wrong in the first place to even start a relationship with him, a married man.

Wake up, please hurry and wake up!

This is an act of pure evil. You cannot use spells on a person with no such skills. The person who took your money to cast the evil spell shall reap his just deserts. Your act has brought harm to so many people and you shall pay your dues in your next life.

Whatever we do can never be hidden from the Heaven and Earth, for the gods and spirits are omnipresent. You inflicted harm on him this time, and he will get back at you in time to come.

When is this vicious cycle of hatred and revenge going to end?

You need to quickly uproot your karmic seeds of suffering in Hades. Beside repentance, you must share your story and warn others against going down your path. This is an act of great virtue!

Trash the unhappy issues out from your heart, to truly rid yourself of worry and depression.

You wish for your partner to be faithful, but you must first do your part to be one.
