英语短语 "in the open air" 的核心含义是 “在户外;露天”(即不在建筑物或封闭空间内),用来描述动作发生的地点或主语的状态。
等同于 not inside a building,强调“暴露在开放的自然环境中”,比如户外的草地、公园、营地等。
该短语是介词短语,主要作状语(修饰动词/句子)或表语(说明主语的位置/状态),常置于句末或系动词后。
修饰动词或整个句子,说明“做某事是在户外”。
We had a picnic in the open air by the lake.(我们在湖边露天野餐。)
The children love playing soccer in the open air on weekends.(孩子们周末喜欢在户外踢足球。)
I enjoy reading in the open air when the weather is nice.(天气好时,我喜欢在户外读书。)
与系动词(如be, remain等)连用,强调“主语处于露天状态”。

自然体验:camp in the open air(露天露营);breathe fresh air in the open air(在户外呼吸新鲜空气)
outdoors(副词):更简洁,用法类似(如“We played outdoors.” = “We played in the open air.”)。
in the open:更强调“在开阔的空间”(如“The dog ran in the open.” 狗在开阔处奔跑),而“in the open air”更侧重“不在室内”。
“in the open air”是描述“户外场景”的常用短语,口语和书面语均适用,核心是区分“室内”与“露天”,用法灵活,只需根据句子结构放在合适位置即可。
