也許你遇到過(guò)這種囧況，向合作伙伴、客戶闡述耗資巨大的項(xiàng)目時(shí)苦于沒(méi)有專業(yè)詞匯，而總要把金額一提再提，結(jié)果不僅自己說(shuō)得啰嗦，人家聽(tīng)著也累。別急，小編來(lái)幫你解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題^_^今天，我們就來(lái)介紹各種巨資項(xiàng)目的英文說(shuō)法：

Teraproject refers to a massive project, particularly one that costs a trillion dollars or more.

“超巨型項(xiàng)目”指非常大型的項(xiàng)目，尤其是那種耗資過(guò)萬(wàn)億美元的工程項(xiàng)目。

For example:

Moon building is probably a gigaproject or even teraproject.

建設(shè)月球也許是個(gè)特大項(xiàng)目，甚至是超巨型項(xiàng)目。

除了teraproject，指代金額巨大的相關(guān)詞匯還有superproject(超級(jí)項(xiàng)目)、gigaprojects(特大項(xiàng)目)和megaproject(大型項(xiàng)目)。

Speaking pedantically, you could say that this term should be used for projects that are a million times more expensive than mere megaprojects, since tera- means "trillion" and mega- means "million."

如果要咬文嚼字的話，這個(gè)詞可以用于形容那些耗資比“巨型項(xiàng)目”(megaprojects)高100萬(wàn)倍的大型項(xiàng)目，因?yàn)椋瑃era-是“萬(wàn)億”的意思，而mega-則指“百萬(wàn)”。

The sharp-eyed reader will have noticed that we skipped right over gigaprojects, meaning large projects with costs that run into the billions (since the prefix giga- means "billion"). However, most of us use the word megaproject to refer to any really large project, regardless of cost, so a strict prefix-based distinction is hair-splitting.
