When talking about traffic in Chinese, you'll definitely come across the word 交通灯 (jiāotōngdēng). It literally translates to "traffic light."
It's a straightforward term. You'll see these at every intersection, just like in English-speaking countries.
For example, when you're driving or walking, you might hear or say: "红灯停，绿灯行" (hóngdēng tíng, lǜdēng xíng), which means "stop on red, go on green."
This phrase directly uses the concept of traffic lights to convey a fundamental rule of the road. It's an essential term for understanding and navigating urban environments in China.

سوالات متداول
10 سوالYou say 'traffic light' in Chinese as 交通灯 (jiāotōngdēng). It literally breaks down to 交通 (jiāotōng) meaning 'traffic' and 灯 (dēng) meaning 'light'.
Yes, 交通灯 can refer to a single traffic light or a set of traffic lights at an intersection. It's a versatile term.
Here's an example: 红色的交通灯亮了。 (Hóngsè de jiāotōngdēng liàng le.) This means 'The red traffic light turned on.'
While 交通灯 is the general term, you might hear specific colors mentioned. For example, 红灯 (hóngdēng) for 'red light' or 绿灯 (lǜdēng) for 'green light'. But 交通灯 covers all of them.
You could ask: 前面有交通灯吗？ (Qiánmiàn yǒu jiāotōngdēng ma?) meaning 'Is there a traffic light ahead?'
You'd say: 在交通灯那里左转。 (Zài jiāotōngdēng nàlǐ zuǒzhuǎn.) Here, 在...那里 (zài... nàlǐ) means 'at... there' and 左转 (zuǒzhuǎn) means 'turn left'.
交通灯 is a standard and neutral term, suitable for both formal and informal conversations. You'll hear it commonly.
You could say: 交通灯变绿了。 (Jiāotōngdēng biàn lǜ le.) meaning 'The traffic light turned green.' 变 (biàn) means 'to change' or 'to become'.
You typically don't use a specific measure word for 交通灯 when referring to a single one. If you're talking about a set of lights, you might say 一个路口的交通灯 (yī gè lùkǒu de jiāotōngdēng) meaning 'the traffic lights at an intersection' where 个 (gè) is a general measure word for the 'intersection'.
No, 交通灯 specifically refers to traffic lights for vehicles and pedestrians on roads. For train signals, you'd use a different term like 铁路信号灯 (tiělù xìnhàodēng).
