Haha... thanks! Obviously I didn't go to elementary school here. :-) "In geometry, a rhombus or rhomb is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length. The rhombus is often called a diamond,

after the diamonds suit in playing cards, or a lozenge, though the latter sometimes refers specifically to a rhombus with a 45° angle."

  • 工作学习 / 外语学习 / 发现自己基本英语词汇的全面性还是不行,昨晚被5年级的孩子将了一军,问我rhombus这词是不是start with rh,我承认不认识这词。你们中有多少以前学过这词?(现在查字典的不算)
    • 不认识。我说过,我英语是小学四年纪水平。
      • 我女儿小学三年级毕业时问了我十个词(多来自哈利波特),我只答对四个~~
        不过按照几位本地资深培训人士的说话,成人需要的语言能力,到小学快毕业还是刚上初中(忘记了)就已经够了。
        • 我现在就是拜小学生为师,从他那里还学到不少,包括一些童谣和黑话。
    • 菱形?
      • 对,也叫平行四边形,这么常用的数学名词,就不在我们以前学的英语单词中。
      • 菱形 translated to English should be "diamond". If you ski/snowboard, you'd know it.
        • 俺小孩也在学这个,所以俺上个礼拜刚查过字典。RHUMBUS是菱型,四边必须等长。DIAMOND只是日常用,不是数学名词。平行四边型叫做PARALER。。。很长很饶
