- 1後甲板(艦上靠船尾、傳統上給軍官用的那一塊)
On a ship, the quarterdeck is the back part of the upper deck, toward the stern. In the old navy, officers stood there and gave orders; ordinary sailors did not lounge on it. Even now, navy people treat it as a rather formal place: you do not walk onto it casually, and on some ships you salute when you step onto it. The word is specialist sea talk. “” here is an old sea word for the back side of the ship, not a coin and not fifteen minutes, and the deck is not “a of the ship’s floor” — though that is what the spelling makes students guess.
組成From quarter + deck. Quarter here is the after part of a ship’s side; deck is the floor of the ship. (Quarter itself goes back to Latin quartus, “fourth”, through the older ship sense.)
