最近聽(tīng)人說(shuō)起什么外企必知的幾個(gè)英文縮寫(xiě)，像HR（human resource，人力資源）、OT（overtime，加班）等常見(jiàn)的縮寫(xiě)都一閃而過(guò)，倒是有一個(gè)cc讓我停頓了好一會(huì)兒。你知道這個(gè)縮寫(xiě)代表什么嗎？咱們今天就來(lái)說(shuō)一說(shuō)。

Carbon copying (abbreviated cc or c.c.) is the technique of using carbon paper to produce one or more copies simultaneously during the creation of paper documents.

復(fù)寫(xiě)（carbon copying，簡(jiǎn)寫(xiě)為cc或c.c.）指在創(chuàng)建文本文件時(shí)用復(fù)寫(xiě)紙同時(shí)復(fù)制出多個(gè)副本的技術(shù)。

The use of carbon copies declined with the advent of photocopying and electronic document creation and distribution (word processing). It is now common for a business letter to include, at the end, a list of names preceded by the abbreviation "cc:", indicating that the named persons are to receive a copy of the letter, even though carbon paper is no longer used to make the copies.

隨著復(fù)印技術(shù)以及電子文件創(chuàng)建和處理技術(shù)的出現(xiàn)，復(fù)寫(xiě)技術(shù)的運(yùn)用急劇減少。現(xiàn)在，很多商務(wù)信函的結(jié)尾處都會(huì)以“cc”開(kāi)頭列出一些人名，表示這封信函要抄送給這些人看，不過(guò)已經(jīng)不用復(fù)寫(xiě)紙來(lái)創(chuàng)建副本了。
