【BEC高级热词】十月房价再跌:“房价”如何说?
由于国有土地的使用限制阻碍了资金周转,越来越多的房地产开发商们开始降低房价,中国主要城市的房价在十月份仍在持续下降,这种情况已经持续了两个月。
请看相关英文报道:
Home prices in major Chinese cities fell for a second month in October, with more developers cutting prices as government property curbs crimped their cash flow.
【解析】
上述报道中的"home prices"就是“房价”的意思,而一般直译出来的"house prices"也常被用来指房价,此外,还可以用"housing prices"。
例句:
After a year of record mortgage foreclosures and slumping home prices, Americans are more determined to shape up their flabby finances in 2008 than their bodies, according to a study released by Countrywide Bank on Tuesday.
美国全国银行于本周二公布的一项调查显示,在经历了今年的次贷危机和房价大跳水后,美国人2008年最大的新年愿望就是“财务健康”,其次是“身体健康”。
Unlike share prices, house pricesrarely plunge in nominal terms.
和股价不一样,名义房价鲜有下降。
China's housing pricesare higher than the United States?
中国的房价高于美国?
