- 1n/ˌiː iː ˈdʒiː/EEG machine腦電圖儀(腦波機)
A machine that records the electrical activity of a person's brain. Sensors are placed on the head, and the machine turns the signals it picks up into lines.
這個意思的 EEG 是 electroencephalograph 的縮寫。它指的是那台機器本身。機器會接上頭皮的感應片。收到的電訊號被轉成一條一條的線。舊型機器用墨水筆畫在長長的紙上。新型的直接顯示在螢幕上。因為是機器,所以可以推、可以買、可以壞掉。句子裡出現這類動作時,多半就是這個意思。
示範例句 · Example
The nurse wheeled the EEG over to the bed and began sticking sensors on Leo's head.
中文翻譯護理師把腦波機推到床邊,然後開始把感應片貼在里歐的頭上。
In this meaning EEG is short for electroencephalograph, the piece of equipment. It is a thing that sits in a room. It can be bought, moved, switched on and broken. Old ones drew the lines with ink pens on a roll of paper; new ones show them on a screen. The word around it usually tells you this is the machine meaning: someone wheels it in, plugs it in, or buys one for a lab.

- 2n/ˌiː iː ˈdʒiː/brain activity record腦電圖
A record of the electrical activity inside someone's brain, drawn as lines that go up and down on paper or on a screen. Doctors read the shape of the lines to see how the brain is working.
EEG 是 electroencephalogram 的縮寫。做的時候,頭皮上會貼很多小感應片。它們接收腦細胞發出的微弱電訊號。機器把訊號畫成上下起伏的線。畫出來的那張圖,就是這個意思的 EEG。醫生看線的形狀和快慢。由此判斷腦是在睡、在醒,還是有異常。這個意思可以數,所以會說 an EEG、three EEGs。最常見的說法是 the EEG shows…(腦電圖顯示…)。同樣三個字母也能指機器、指那一次檢查,要看句子怎麼用。
EEG is short for electroencephalogram. Small sensors are stuck onto the skin of the head. They pick up the very weak electrical signals that brain cells make. A machine turns those signals into moving lines. The sheet or screen of lines is the EEG. In this meaning you can count it: an EEG, three EEGs. People usually say that an EEG shows something, or that something shows up on the EEG. The same three letters are also used for the machine and for the test itself, so the words around it tell you which one is meant.
常見搭配
