- 1莫斯科
Moscow is the capital city of Russia, and it was the capital of the Soviet Union before that. The government sits in the , a heart of palaces and churches. Next to it is Red Square, and St Basil’s Cathedral with its coloured onion domes — the picture many people have in their heads when they say Moscow. It is a huge city, cold in winter, and news reports often let “Moscow” stand for Russia’s government, the way “Washington” can stand for the United States. People say in Moscow, never the Moscow. The name is tied to the Moskva River; Moscow and Moskva are two shapes of the same old name, probably once about damp or ground. In English you may also meet for a person from Moscow, from the older English name Muscovy.
組成Ultimately from Old East Slavic Moskov-, first the Moskva River, probably from Proto-Slavic *mosky (“swamp, dampness, moisture”). Doublet of Moskva. Distant cousins in other languages are sometimes listed; those are not extra English words you need.

Moscowname/ˈmɒskəʊ/
- 1
A federal city, the capital and largest city of Russia.
- The mother, Ekaterina Pavlovna, who at one time had been handsome, but now, asthmatic, depressed, vague, and over-feeble for her years, tried to entertain me with conversation about painting. Having heard from her daughter that I might come to Shelkovka, she had hurriedly recalled two or three of my landscapes which she had seen in exhibitions in Moscow, and now asked what I meant to express by them.
- I was inclined to accept Yeltsin's invitation to go to Russia, but Tony Lake said Moscow shouldn't be my first foreign stop, and the rest of my team said it would divert attention from our domestic agenda.
- 2
An oblast of Russia surrounding the city, which itself is not part of the oblast; in full, Moscow Oblast.
- 3
governmentpoliticsThe government of Russia or the Soviet Union.
- Moscow doubtless wants to make trouble for the Western Powers so far as she can without losing their recognition or encouraging actual hostility. She wants peace and trade and an opportunity for internal economic reconstruction above everything just now. It seems doubtful whether she expects to Bolshevize China, though she wants China fully independent of Western imperialism and friendly to her.
- I could not agree with the tactics or approach of those who, like Chiang Kai-shek in a speech on July 3, 1950, wanted the U.N. to charge the Russians with the full responsibility for this Korean conflict and to demand that Moscow put an end to it. This kind of bluster is certain to lead into an impossible dilemma. If these suggestions had been followed and the Soviets had ignored the order, as in all likelihood they would have done, either the United Nations would have stood convicted of weakness or World War III would have been on.
