Leftover通常用於表達在寫作或進食後剩餘的數量。通常在談論食物時會用到這個詞,但也用來表示剩下的東西。例子: I used to cook everyday but now I'm so busy we sometimes eat leftovers. (我每天都做飯,但是現在我很忙,所以有時我只吃剩飯。)示例: She thought we would need more fabric but we just use what was leftover. (她以為她需要更多的衣服,但我們只用剩菜剩飯。)例如: There are some leftovers in the fridge if you're hungry. (如果餓了,冰箱裡有剩菜,所以要吃掉。)示例: Most of these buildings have features that are leftovers from the past.下來的Most of these buildings have features that are leftovers from the past. (這些建築物大多數都具有使用過去的殘蹟的特徵。)
