释义

名词

一种载货的汽车。也译为罗里。

DEFINITION

Noun

A type of vehicle for transporting goods. Also known in Mandarin as “罗里”.

由来
  • 英语“lorry”的音译。
  • 罗厘一词源自英式英语,估计20世纪初期英国推出了这类载货汽车,之后才传到新马一带。
  • 在新加坡,常见的罗厘类型分为敞篷罗厘、带顶篷的罗厘、带箱的罗厘和带起重机的罗厘。比较特别的是,一些罗厘在载货的部位是没有车顶的。
  • 罗厘按尺寸的大小,还可分为三种:
  1. 10英尺罗厘,通常用来运送货物。
  2. 14英尺罗厘,用于运送大件商品,如长金属制品或长管道等。
  3. 24英尺罗厘,适用于运输较大的货物。可能带有顶篷,有些还安装了起重机,以便于装卸货物。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “罗厘” is the transliteration of the English word “lorry”. 

  • The term “lorry” originated from British English. This type of cargo vehicle was first launched in the United Kingdom around the early 20th century before it was introduced to Singapore and Malaysia. 

  • Types of lorries that are commonly seen in Singapore include pickups, lorries with shelters, container lorries and crane lorries. A unique characteristic of some lorries is that there is no cover for the part of the vehicle carrying goods.  

  • Lorries can be categorised into three groups, according to their length: 

  1. 10 feet: typically used to transport goods. 

  2. 14 feet: used to transport large items such as long metal products or pipes. 

  3. 24 feet: suitable for transporting bigger-sized cargo. Some may be equipped with a cover while others may have a crane installed for easy loading and unloading.

例句
罗厘与电单车骑士公路纠纷,原来电单车是骑士向朋友借来的,他向朋友声称,事发时先超车的是罗厘,还在他面前不断刹车,他才生气地反超罗厘要讨说法。(《联合晚报》,4/1/2019)
