Technique 表示做事的方法,也可以表示操作或表演的技巧:a breathing technique、her piano technique。有些语言中近似的词也指机器设备,但英语的 technique 不这样用。家电是 household appliances,工作所需工具与设备是 equipment,大型机器的统称可以是 machinery。

修改原因
修改前We bought new kitchen technique last month: a fridge and a dishwasher.
修改后We bought new kitchen appliances last month: a fridge and a dishwasher.
冰箱和洗碗机是设备,而 technique 表示做事的方法。厨房电器应说 kitchen appliances。有些语言会用一个与 technique 相似的词统称家中的机器,逐字套用就会造成误解。
讨论设备、电子产品和技术进步整体时,英语常用 technology:Technology is changing the way we study。Technique 则关注怎样做事,例如 good exam technique 指考试中有效安排时间和精力的能力。
动手练习
Our office got new computer ___, so everyone now has a faster laptop and a second monitor.
查看答案
equipment — 笔记本电脑和显示器是硬件设备,因此选 equipment。Technique 指方法或技巧,不是这里买来分给员工的实物。Computer technique 不能用来统称电脑及相关硬件。
