Significados de Glass em português

Le mot "glass" en anglais se réfère principalement à deux concepts : un matériau transparent utilisé pour fabriquer des objets et un récipient pour boire.

  1. Utilisation du mot "glass" :

    • Matériau : "Glass" désigne un matériau dur et transparent, souvent utilisé pour les fenêtres, les bouteilles, et divers objets décoratifs. Par exemple : "The window is made of glass" (La fenêtre est en verre).
    • Récipient : "Glass" est également utilisé pour désigner un récipient, généralement pour les boissons. Par exemple : "Can I have a glass of water?" (Puis-je avoir un verre d'eau ?).

  2. Contextes d'utilisation :

    • Le mot "glass" est utilisé dans des contextes variés, allant de la vie quotidienne (comme dans un restaurant ou à la maison) à des discussions plus techniques (comme en architecture ou en design).
    • Il est employé par tout le monde, des enfants aux adultes, dans des situations formelles ou informelles. Par exemple, dans un restaurant, on dira : "Please bring me a glass of red wine" (Veuillez m'apporter un verre de vin rouge).

    • Synonymes : "Cup" (tasse), "bottle" (bouteille) pour des récipients, "pane" pour une vitre.
    • Antonymes : "Opaque" (opaque) pour décrire un matériau qui ne laisse pas passer la lumière.

  6. Prononciation :

    • "Glass" se prononce /ɡlæs/ en anglais. Attention à la prononciation du son "g" qui est dur, et le "a" qui est prononcé comme dans "cat".

  7. Grammaire et étymologie :

    • "Glass" est un nom commun et peut être utilisé au singulier et au pluriel (glasses pour les lunettes ou plusieurs verres).
