【使用地区】：英国

【释义】：

The term for what would be regular coffee in the United States—that is，coffee with cream or milk．Black means the same as in the United States—coffee with no cream or milk．“Black or white?”a waitress will ask in Britain，not“With or without?’

此词组的字面意思是“白咖啡”，即指“加奶油或牛奶的咖啡”，也就是美国人通常所说的regular coffee。同样，“黑咖啡”指不加奶油或牛奶的咖啡。英国服务员会问，“白的还是黑的?”，而不是“要不要加牛奶?”
