A deejaydeejay is a disc jockey是disc jockey(唱片騎師)的意思: the person who chooses and plays recorded music就是負責挑選、播放錄好的音樂的人, and often talks between tracks而且常常在歌曲之間講話, on the radio or in a club不管是在電台還是夜店。 People nearly always write DJ人們幾乎都寫成DJ; deejay is simply those two letters spelled the way they sounddeejay只是把這兩個字母的發音拼出來而已。

You can also use it as a verb: to deejay a party is to be the one on the decks. It feels informal, and a little showy — posters, magazines, and music talk like it.

Though actually the job has split more than the old name suggests. A radio deejay talks, plays songs, and keeps company with listeners; a club deejay mixes tracks for a dance floor. Neither is just “the person who puts a record on.” The older full phrase disc jockey still exists, but younger speakers mostly say DJ.

Though actually不過其實, the job has split more than the old name suggests這份工作分化得比舊名稱所暗示的還要多。 A radio deejay電台的deejay talks, plays songs, and keeps company with listeners會講話、播歌,還會陪伴聽眾; a club deejay夜店的deejay mixes tracks for a dance floor則是為舞池混音。 Neither is just “the person who puts a record on.”這兩者都不只是「放唱片的人」而已 The older full phrase disc jockey still exists舊時的完整說法disc jockey依然存在, but younger speakers mostly say DJ但年輕人大多只說DJ。
