meter ['mi:t&*]

I n [c]

1 (=instrument)
(for gas, water, electricity) 仪(儀)表 yíbiǎo [个 gè]
(also: parking meter) 停车(車)计(計)时(時)器 tíngchē jìshíqì [个 gè]

2 (US) (=unit) = metre

II vt [+ gas, water, electricity] 用表计(計)量 yòng biǎo jìliáng

请勿将 meter 和 metre 混淆。在英式英语里，以 -er 结尾的 meter ，是用来测量或记录某事的工具，而以 -re 结尾的 metre 是测量单位。在美式英语中，meter 对于这两个含义都适用。

metre, (US) meter['mi:t&*] n [c] (=unit) 米 mǐmeter
