An Oscar is the golden prize given each year in the United States for the best work in film — best picture, best actor, best actress, and many jobs behind the camera. The official name is Academy Award; Oscar is the nickname everyone actually uses. People say “She won an Oscar,” and “the Oscars” for the night of the show.

An Oscar奧斯卡 is是 each year每年 in the United States在美國 for the best work in film為電影裡的最佳表現 given頒發的 the golden prize金色獎項 — best picture最佳影片、 best actor最佳男主角、 best actress最佳女主角， and many jobs behind the camera以及許多幕後工作。 The official name正式名稱 is是 Academy Award； Oscar奧斯卡 is是 everyone大家 actually實際上 uses在用的 the nickname暱稱。 People大家 say會說 “She won an Oscar”「她得了一座奧斯卡」， and而 “the Oscars”這個說法 for the night of the show指的是頒獎那一晚。

Though actually, nobody is sure why the statue got that nickname — there are a few stories, and they do not all agree, so it is honest to say we do not know for certain.

Though actually不過其實， nobody is sure沒有人確定 why the statue got that nickname這座小金人為什麼得到這個暱稱 — there are有 a few stories幾種說法， and they do not all agree而且彼此並不一致， so it is honest to say所以老實地說 we do not know for certain我們並不能確定。

Oscar is also a much older personal name. That name is a mix of two different old names: an Irish Oscar (often explained as “deer” + “friend”) and an Old English name meaning “god’s spear.” Napoleon later helped the given name spread in Europe.

Oscar奧斯卡 also也是 a much older一個古老得多的 personal name人名。 That name那個名字 is是由 two different old names兩個不同的古名 a mix混合而成： an Irish Oscar一個愛爾蘭的 Oscar （often explained as常被解釋成 “deer”「鹿」 +加 “friend”「朋友」） and和 an Old English name一個古英語名字， meaning意思是 “god’s spear”「神的矛」。 Napoleon拿破崙 later後來 helped讓 the given name這個名字 in Europe在歐洲 spread傳開。

When film people say “an Oscar,” they mean the award, not a man called Oscar.

When當 film people電影圈的人 say說 “an Oscar”「一座奧斯卡」時， they他們 mean指的是 the award那座獎， not不是 a man called Oscar一個名叫 Oscar 的男人。
