在《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》第4版插图版的 steerage 词条有这样一个例子:
travel steerage 乘坐统舱
但词典说这个steerage 是名词,这该如何解释?
steerage n. 驾驶,操舵; 舵效; 统舱
The ship went with easy steerage.
这条船容易操舵.
Passengers traveling in the steerage paid the lowest fares.
坐下等客舱的旅客付最低的票价.
But He , that hath the steerage of my course, direct my sail!
可是让支配我的前途的上帝指导我的行动吧!
He was re - elected for his miraculous steerage of the country through an economic disaster.
他奇迹般地引导该国渡过了一场经济灾难,因此再度当选.
