短释义
Commerce made its way into English from the Latin word commercium — com-, meaning “together,” and -mercium, meaning “merchandise.” Business, trade, and retailing are all common synonyms. Commerce doesn’t always refer to buying and selling, though, just as the marketplace doesn’t always refer to goods and services. Data, information, and opinions, too, can be exchanged and traded, as on the Internet, which is a great place for the commerce of ideas.
商业是商品和服务的交换。这是生意。想要举办奥运会的城市之间的竞争非常激烈,因为奥运会促进了旅游业和商业的发展。

商业从拉丁语单词 commercium 进入英语——com-,意思是“在一起”,-mercium,意思是“商品”。商业、贸易和零售都是常见的同义词。然而,商业并不总是指购买和销售,就像市场并不总是指商品和服务一样。数据、信息和意见也可以交换和交易,就像在互联网上一样,互联网是思想交易的好地方。
