语域:neutral 常见场景:school、workplace staffroom 多用于英式英语,通常指学校等场所中供教职员工休息或备课的房间;美式英语中更常说 teachers' lounge。该词属于中性词,正式和日常场合都可使用。
staffroom 在英式英语读 /ˈstɑːfruːm/,美式读 /ˈstæfruːm/。room、broom、groom 都含 /ruːm/ 音,彼此押韵;它们与 staffroom 后半部分同音,但 staffroom 重音在第一个音节,所以不是完整押韵。classroom、bedroom、bathroom 也以 -room 结尾,拼写相似,但重音在前半部分,读音与 staffroom 并不相同,注意别按拼写类推。
