fire department vs fire brigade
🇬🇧 fire brigade = 英式英语更常用
🇺🇸 美式英语基本不用

对比总结:

  • 🇺🇸 American English
    ✅ fire department
    ⚠️ fire brigade(听得懂,但不地道)
  • 🇬🇧 British English
    ✅ fire brigade
    也可以用 fire service

📌 在美国说 fire brigade,不会被纠正,但立刻暴露是非母语或英式背景。

Lottery

在美国,“Lottery” 是统称,但真正最受欢迎、最常听到、奖金最高的两种彩票 是:
1. Powerball(强力球)— 全美最有名、最常爆巨奖的彩券
2. Mega Millions(超级百万)— 和 Powerball 一样超热门

“Lottery” 是统称,但美国人平常口语里会直接说:
“Did you buy a Powerball ticket?”
“The Mega Millions jackpot is huge tonight.”
