unemployed

adjective

unemployed ♦︎ jobless ♦︎ out of work ♦︎ redundant ♦︎ on the dole ♦︎ on welfareThese words all describe people who do not have a job. 这些词均表示失业的、无工作的。PATTERNS AND COLLOCATIONS 句型和搭配◆unemployed / jobless people◆unemployed / redundant workers◆currently / still unemployed / out of work◆newly unemployed / redundant◆the long-term unemployed / jobless■ unemployed without a job although able to work 失业的；待业的；下岗的◆How long have you been unemployed?你失业多久了？◆He's an unemployed builder.他是个失业的建筑工人。  see also be employed ⇨ work verb 2 ▸ the unemployed

noun

 [plural] ◆We're working on a programme to get the long-term unemployed back to work.我们正致力于一个让长期失业者重新就业的计划。■ jobless (journalism 新闻) unemployed 失业的；无工作的◆The closure left 500 people jobless.这次倒闭使500人失业。ⓘ Jobless is used, especially in journalism, to talk about unemployed people as a group; it is not used to talk about individual unemployed people. * jobless尤用于新闻报道，指作为一个群体的失业者，不用以指个别的失业者◆How long have you been jobless? ■ ˌout of ˈwork unemployed 失业；无工作◆She had been out of work for a year.她已经失业一年了。   see also be in work ⇨ work verb 2 NOTE 辨析 Unemployed or out of work? Out of work is used more in everyday conversation, especially when you are talking about a particular person. It can sound less permanent than unemployed, and is therefore a gentler term to use. * out of work多用于日常会话，尤用以指特定的某个人的状况，听上去不如unemployed所指的失业时间久，因此是个较温和的说法。■ redundant rɪˈdʌndənt (BrE) without a job because there is no more work available for you in a company 被裁减的◆I've been expecting to be made redundant for a year now.一年来我一直等着被裁减。  see also make sb redundant ⇨ fire verb ■ ˌon the ˈdole (BrE, informal) without a job and claiming money from the state 领失业救济金◆He's been on the dole for a year.他领失业救济金已经一年了。ⓘ A more formal way of saying on the dole is claiming social security/unemployment benefit. 较on the dole更为正式的说法是claim social security/unemployment benefit。■ ˌon ˈwelfare (especially NAmE) without a job and claiming money from the state 领社会保障金◆They would rather work than live on welfare.他们宁愿工作而不愿靠社会保障金过活。   see also welfare ⇨ aid
