单词 东南亚人
释义 〔Asian〕The termAsian is now preferred for persons of South and East Asian ancestry (Indians, Southeast Asians, Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, Indonesians, Filipinos, and others) in place of the term Oriental, an older usage that denotes some of these groups.Oriental has been objected to on two grounds: because it suggests racial, rather than cultural identity,and because it identifies the place of origin in terms of its location relative to the West (i.e., "from the East"), rather than in absolute terms.这个名称亚洲 现在用来称呼南亚和东亚人的后裔(包括印度人,东南亚人,中国人,朝鲜人,日本人,印尼人,菲律宾人和其他人),而不用 oriental, 这是一个老的用法,用来指这些亚洲人中的一些人。反对使用oriental 这个词有两个理由: 因为它暗示着种族的而非文化的特征,还因为它把人与相对于西方(如“来自东方”)的出生地混为一谈,而不以很清楚的名称指称。
