1. 1火盆、炭盆(露天取暖用的金屬盆,燒木炭)

    An open metal container — often a bowl or a pierced metal box on legs — that you burn charcoal or wood in. Its job is heat and light out of doors: night workers, market traders, guards, and people at winter street protests stand around one to keep warm, and you see them at outdoor bars and . Some are made for cooking, so the word can shade into 'barbecue', and in older buildings and temples a brazier is the metal bowl where things are burned. In English it is a fairly or scene-setting word — in a novel about a cold night there is always a brazier; in everyday speech people often just say 'fire' or 'fire pit'. Say it 'BRAY-zher' or 'BRAY-zee-er'. Be aware of an unrelated older word spelled the same way, 'brazier' meaning a worker in brass; you will only meet that in old texts and in family names.

組成From French brasier 'pan of hot coals', from Old French brese 'embers, hot coals' — a word of Germanic origin. That same brese gives English 'braise', cooking slowly over low heat. The other, unrelated brazier meaning 'brass worker' is simply brass + -ier.
