    World-famous means known by people all over the world, not only in one country. A world-famous singer is one whose name people recognise in , in Lagos, and in Lima. It says nothing about being good — it is about how far the name has travelled. Someone can be world-famous for a crime, or for one strange video.

    World-famous means的意思是 by people all over the world全世界的人 known都認得,not only in one country不只在一個國家。A world-famous singer一位 world-famous 的歌手 is one就是:in Taipei在台北、in Lagos在拉哥斯、and in Lima和在利馬,people人們 whose name recognise都認得他的名字。It它 about being good對好不好 says nothing什麼都沒說——it is about它講的是 the name這個名字 has travelled傳得 how far多遠。Someone一個人 can be可能 for a crime因為一樁罪案、or for one strange video或一支奇怪的影片 world-famous而全世界出名。

    It normally sits in front of a noun: a world-famous painting, the world-famous night market. You can also use it after be — "He is world-famous" — and that is fine, though slightly less common.

    It它 normally通常 sits in front of a noun放在名詞前面:a world-famous painting、the world-famous night market。You你 can also也可以 use it把它用 after be在 be 後面——"He is world-famous"——and that is fine這樣沒問題,though slightly less common只是稍微少見一點。

    Here is where students get pulled in: the word is popular in tourism and menus. Small restaurants advertise their "world-famous" beef ; a town calls its little festival world-famous. Everyone knows this is friendly , and in a serious essay it can make you sound like a poster.

    Here is where students get pulled in學生容易在這裡被拉走:the word這個字 in tourism and menus在觀光和菜單裡 is enormously popular紅得不得了。Small restaurants小餐館 advertise廣告著 their自家 "world-famous"「全世界都知道」的 beef noodles牛肉麵;a town一個小鎮 its little festival把自己的小節慶 calls說成 world-famous世界都有名。Everyone大家 knows都知道 this is friendly exaggeration這是善意的誇飾,and但 in a serious essay在正式的作文裡 it它 can make you sound可能讓你聽起來 like a poster像一張海報。

    If you actually mean "very well known here", say famous, well known, or famous throughout Taiwan. Save world-famous for names that truly cross borders.

    If you actually mean如果你其實想說的是 "very well known here"「在這裡很有名」,say就說 famous、well known、or或 famous throughout Taiwan。Save留著 world-famous,for給 truly cross borders真正跨得過國界 names that的那些名字。
