汉语中的“清洁工”,说成英语可以是 a cleaning man 和 a cleaning woman。如:
Cleaning women in big cities usually get paid by the hour. 大都市里的清洁女工通常是按时计酬的。(1998高考英语全国卷)
当然也可以是 cleaner。如:
I used to work as a cleaner in a hospital. 我过去在医院里做清洁工。
They entered the building disguised as cleaners. 他们化装成清洁工人的模样进入大楼。
The cleaner putdown his mop and bucket and sat down. 清洁工放下拖把和桶,坐了下来。
The cleaner had muddled my papers, and I couldn’tfind the one I wanted. 清洁工把我的文件弄乱了,我找不到我要的那份了。
