    room, apartment, dormitory, flat

    这组词都可表示“一套房间”。它们的区别在于:
    1.flat指比较简朴的住宅,通常占有不大或不很讲究的楼内某一层,多用于英式英语中。
    2.apartment通常指单房,复数形式时指套房,也可指私人房或出租房,有无设备都可,多用在美式英语中。有时也可称作condominium或condo。例如:
    He told me it cost him 1000 dollars to furnish his apartment, and I believe it.他告诉我他花了1000美元为这套住宅配置家具,这话我信。
    I need to buy a new apartment so as to the more convenient to go work.我需要一套新公寓,以便上班更方便。
    3.room常指单人住户使用的房间,不仅指住宅楼里,而且也指公共宿舍,或旅馆里的单元房间,有时有公共厨房和其他公用服务间。例如:

    This is the place where we can play tennis.这是我们打网球的地方。

    2.house指“遮蔽以免受气候等侵袭”(提供有顶盖、有墙、像房屋般的遮蔽)。例如:
