1. 1

    Crockery is the cups, plates, bowls, and dishes you eat and drink from, talked about as a group. It usually means the ceramic or china ones — the things that can chip or break — not the knives and forks, and not the pans you cook in. A box of crockery is what you pack when you move house. The word is more at home in British English; American English often just says dishes. It is a household word, a little old-fashioned in some mouths, but still clear. You would not usually call a single mug a crockery; you say a cup, and crockery for the set or the lot.

    陶瓷餐具、碗盤(杯子盤子當一批來說;不含刀叉)
