“石头地”常见的英文表达是 “rocky ground” 或 “stony ground”。
rocky ground:强调地面布满岩石,相对更常用一些。例如:The hike was challenging because the path was mostly rocky ground.(这次徒步很有挑战性,因为大部分路径都是布满岩石的地面。)
stony ground:侧重于表示地面有很多石头,“stony”本身就有“多石的;布满石头的”意思。例如:The farmers had a hard time growing crops on this stony ground.(农民们在这片多石的地上种庄稼很困难 。)
