英文释义
名词 n.
-
A grandchild of a Japanese immigrant to the Americas.
— Born and brought tip mostly in South America, the United States (particularly Hawaii) and Canada, the nisei and sansei have Japanese features but often speak the language imperfectly, if at all. “If you don't speak Japanese well,” one sansei said ruefully, “it's better to he white.”
词源
Borrowed from Japanese 三世 (“third generation”), from 三 (san, “third”) + 世 (sei, “generation”).
