“quarantine”《剑桥词典》日前发布消息称，其评选出的2020年度词汇是“隔离”。

The dictionary’s editors said that it was the third most searched-for word of the year, but comes in at number one once you discount words that recur almost every year, such as “hello” and “dictionary”.

According to the dictionary, “quarantine” was searched for the most in between 18 and 24 March, when restrictions began to be imposed due to the pandemic.

《剑桥词典》称，在封锁期间，“隔离”有了新的含义，因此也有了新的定义。

"A general period of time in which people are not allowed to leave their homes or travel freely, so that they do not catch or spread a disease," it reads.

除了“隔离”，“大流行”和“封锁”等其他新冠病毒相关词汇也在《剑桥词典》2020年度词汇榜单中名列前茅。

There were also several new words added to the dictionary, including “HyFlex”, which is short for hybrid flexible, a term used to describe a style of teaching that sees some students participating in a class virtually while others are also there physically.

“撞肘”也被添加到《剑桥词典》中，这是一种可以让人们保持社交距离的友好问候方式。

In a poll, readers were asked which words they think should be added to the dictionary this year.

读者选出的最常见的词汇有quaranteen（封锁措施下的青少年）、lockstalgia（对封锁的怀念）和coronnial（新冠疫情期间出生的人）。
