我认为suburb和outskirt意思是一样的,但有什么区别呢?

没错,这两个词很像。 Suburb是远离城市的住宅区! Outskirt是指城镇或城市以外的区域。换言之, suburb可以被认为包括在市区的outskirt 。 Outskirt也可以指居住区之外、附近或边缘的区域。所以outskirt有时可能在suburb之外!示例: I live on the outskirts of the city. It's nice and quiet there in the suburbs. (我住在附近的郊区。那里很安静,很好。) 例子: If you go to the outskirts of the suburb, near the mountain, you'll see a lot of nature. (如果你去郊区郊区的山附近,你可以看到很多大自然。) 例子: There are a lot of families that live in the suburbs. (许多家庭住在郊区。)
