- 1NFL（美國國家美式足球聯盟）。指美式足球，不是台灣常說的足球；中國大陸較常稱美式足球為橄欖球。
The NFL is the National Football League, the body that runs the highest level of professional American football in the United States. It sets the rules, runs the season, and is made of two conferences: the NFC and the AFC. Each year those two conference winners meet in the Super Bowl, the biggest game of the year. “Football” here is American football — pads, helmets, an oval brown ball — not the sport Taiwan usually calls 足球. People say “the NFL” as a name. In the US it is hugely famous; in Taiwan, fans and sports channels mostly keep the English letters. It is not a university league, and it is not soccer.
組成Short for National Football League.
