你知道怎么用英语表达“夺冠”吗

冉红

在英语中，常用win来表达“夺冠”“夺金”。同学们最常见“夺冠、夺金”的英文表达是“win the game/win the championship/win the gold medal/win the firstprize/become（be） the champion/come first”等。

女口，Lang Ping wonseveral championships beforeshe became a coach.郎平在成为一名教练前曾获得几次冠军称号。（人教版必修第1册UNIT 3：Sports andFitness）

再如，The Winter Olympic Games are not just anopportunity for athletes to win medals and honour fortheir countries.对于运动员们来说，冬奥会不仅仅是一个为祖国获堡奖牌和争光的机会。（人教版必修第1册UNIT 3：Sports and Fitness）

又如，But if he's out there every day and playinghard， you should praise his effort regardless of whetherhis team wins or loses.（2019年高考英语浙江卷）

但浏览《中国日报》关于2022北京冬奥会的相关英文报道后发现，除了使用wm，take外，還可以用claim， clinch， earn， grab， snatch， secure， bag， pocket， fin-ish等，表示“夺冠”。

冬奥会开赛第二天，中国队首开记录（open host'saccount），获得东道主的第一块金牌。请看China Dai-ly的两则英文报道：

Wu Dajing spearheads thrilling mixed team relay tri-umph as Team China grabs its first gold of the Games.武大靖带领中国队夺得奥运首金。

China's short-track speed skaters claimed the host'sfirst gold medal of the Beijing Winter Olympics in the in-augural 2，OOOm mixed team relay on Saturday.周六，中国短道速滑选手在北京冬奥会2000米混合接力赛中为东道主夺得首枚金牌。

两天后，中国又添一金。China Daily这样报道：China's Ren Ziwei won the men's 1，000- meter shorttrack speed skating final at the Beijing 2022 WinterOlympics on Monday night， earmng the host country itssecond gold medal of the Games.周一晚，中国选手任子威在短道速滑男子1000米决赛中获胜，为中国赢得了本届冬奥会的第二枚金牌。

从以上的英文报道中可以看出，grab，claim，win，earn四个动词表达的均是“夺冠／夺金”之意。下面笔者以北京冬奥会期间China Daily的相关英文报道为例，总结并梳理一下“夺冠／夺金”的英文表达及其相关用法，同时附上Collins词典的英汉释义。
