1. 1

    A submarine is a special boat that can travel underwater, used by navies and by scientists exploring the ocean. In American English, 'a submarine' (often to 'a sub') is also a long sandwich made in a long bread roll, named because its shape looks like a submarine. As an adjective, 'submarine' can describe anything under the sea, like 'submarine cables' - the wires under the ocean that carry internet signals between countries.

    潛水艇(船)/潛艇堡(三明治,也叫sub)/海底的(形容詞,如海底電纜)
