saloon [səˋlun] ( 注意 oo 發長音的 [ u ] ) 在美式英文裡指的通常是圖一這樣的酒館
在西部片中常看到
它也可以指火車上或船上的交誼廳
salon [səˋlɑn] ( 注意 o 是唸 [a] 而不是 [o] ) 現在中文裡都音譯為 ”沙龍”
主要是指 美容或美髮院 beauty salon / hair salon
salon 在古時候是歐洲貴族邀請音樂家, 畫家或作家到家裡聚會或表演的房間
現在則是指做頭髮和美容的地方
有時也指賣高檔設計師衣服的店
大家要注意, 兩個字沒有一個是像中文的 ”沙龍” 唸 [səˋlon] 的
而且這兩個字的意思和拚法也不一樣
下次在使用時要小心囉~
