喜樂美語
  1. 1

    A formal word meaning 'to get' or 'to obtain' something, especially something that takes effort, planning, or an official process to get. Companies 'procure' supplies or equipment, and you might hear 'procurement department' in a business. It sounds stiff and official; in daily conversation, people just say 'get' or 'find,' not 'procure.'

    取得；採購 (常用於正式或商業場合)
