近期的新型冠状病毒疫情是每个老百姓都关注的话题,今天我们来学习一下,“冠状病毒”用英语该如何表达:
coronavirus /kə,rəunə'vaiərəs/
IELTS丨TOEFL丨专八
外刊例句
Better vigilance in where humans and animals mingle, as they do in markets across Asia, would help catch viral newcomers early. A tougher task is dissuading people from eating wild animals and convincing them to handle livestock with care, using masks and gloves when butchering meat and fish, for example. Such measures might have prevented the new coronavirus from ever making headlines.
在人和动物混杂的地方提高警惕,就像他们在亚洲市场所做的那样,将有助于早期发现新型病毒。一项更艰巨的任务是劝阻人们不要食用野生动物,并说服他们小心处理牲畜,例如在宰杀肉类和鱼类时使用口罩和手套。这些措施本可以防止这种新型冠状病毒登上新闻头条。
——《经济学人》
基本释义
Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans, the virus causes respiratory infections which are typically mild but, in rare cases, can be lethal. In cows and pigs they may cause diarrhea, while in chickens it can cause an upper respiratory disease.
n. 冠状病毒
追根溯源
单词coronavirus里的coron部分,来源于希腊语korōnē, 意思是“乌鸦”。因为乌鸦的爪子分成了几瓣,所以后来很多分成几瓣的东西都有词根coro-的身影,例如: crow n. 乌鸦 crown n. 皇冠 corona n. 日冕 coronary adj. 冠状的
扩充内容
那么“新型冠状病毒”该怎么说呢?我们可以用这两个地道的表达:
The novel coronavirus
The new coronavirus
这时候可能就有小伙伴会好奇地问 :novel不是小说的意思吗?
其实“novel ”在这里可不是“小说”的意思,而是“新奇的,异常的”。
例句:
Dialogic novel is a novel category of fiction.
对话小说是一种新颖的小说类别。
Fever and cough are the typical symptoms of the novel coronavirus.
发烧和咳嗽是这种新型冠状病毒的典型症状。

Dear Amy,
It is so considerate of you to receive your letter inquiring about novel cononavirus in wuhan. I am writing to tell you about this.
Since the outbreak of an infectious disease in wuhan in December 2019, the Chinese government has decisively closed down the city to prevent the spread of the disease. At the same time, although cases have been found throughout the country, the Chinese people actively face it, together with wuhan to fight the epidemic.
At this particular time, we should go out as little as possible, isolated. If we go out, we must wear protective masks to prevent ourselves from getting infected. In addition, we should keep good healthy habits and keep our body clean.
As many Chinese say, “come on Wuhan".
Yours,
Li Hua

满分佳作
Since the pneumonia epidemic broke out in Wuhan in December, the number of people infected and patients who have died keep climbing. It is reported that the epidemic has something to do with the killing and selling of wild animals at South China Seafood Market. With the decrease of wild animals, many animals are endangered. Worse still,some of them may disappear forever.
There is no doubt that hunting and killing wild animals has a bad influence. For wild animals are killed for their fur, which causes the imbalance of nature. For another, due to the contact between humans and wild animals, epidemics like SARS and pneumonia may infect humans easily.
As far as I am concerned, something must be done to stop this illegal action. First, Nature Reserves are supposed to be built so as to offer more living space to wildlife. Second, be aware that never have wild animals for food, as they are part of environment. Third, it is high timethat we raised people’s awareness to protect wildlife. In this way, we can build a harmonious society and ensure a sustainable development.
