话说公务员的英语词汇
A civil servant or public servant is a civilian public sector employee working for a government department or agency.The term always includes the state's employees; whether regional, or sub-state, or even municipal employees are called "civil servants" varies from country to country.
从上文中我们看到,“公务员”的英语就是“civil servant”或者“public servant”了。
说起“servant”,想必大家第一反应就是“仆人,佣人”的意思吧。其实除此之外,“servant”还有“persondevoted to sb / sth(终于某人/某事)”的意思。比如说:a servant of Jesus Christ(耶稣基督的忠仆)
不过各个国家对“公务员”的称呼都不尽相同,比如说在美国,他们将公务员称为“Government employees”,大家更喜欢哪种说法呢?请您留言讨论!
