<< review queue entry 61434 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> LA ~ 1. 桌面。 2. 比喻公開、正式的場合。 例 「往事又浮上檯面」、「這不起眼的玩意兒上不了檯面」。 3. 指賭博時放在桌面上的賭資總額。 例 「檯面很大」。 1) In electronics, "mesa" is only used in relation to a type of transistor that was developed in 1955 and is now obsolete, as far as I can tell. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesa_(disambiguation) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_transistor#Mesa_transistor http://www.iciba.com/%E5%8F%B0%E9%9D%A2%E5%BC%8F%E6%99%B6%E4%BD%93%E7%AE%A1 It could go in an entry for 台面式晶体管 perhaps, but there aren't many G hits for that term, and there seem to be none at all for the trad version of it. ------------------- 2) "on the table" and "in public" are adverbs. 台面 is a *noun* (公開、正式的場合). 政治性的議題也浮上台面， 許多原本被忽視的歷史紛紛浮出檯面。 一九九七年電影界「借牌靠行」的紛爭正式上了檯面。 In 1997 the film industry's practice of borrowing licenses came under scrutiny ------------------------ 3) ante ~ "The stake that each poker player must put into the pool before receiving a hand or before receiving new cards." According to dictionaries (e.g. LA, K) 台面 is the total stakes on the table, not the stake an individual player puts in. |
