英语词汇“disturbance”的英英意思、用法、释义、翻译、读音、例句、短语、词组-英语词典

A disturbance is a noisy commotion that causes a hubbub or interruption. It can also be a worried mental state.

In hotels, people put up "Do not disturb" signs when they want to be left alone. That's a good clue to what a disturbance is: something, usually noisy or rowdy, that bothers people. An audience member yelling during a piano concert would be a disturbance. Disturbances can also be interruptions, like a disturbance in cable service when the cable goes out. Disturbances can also be mental: if you're worried or anxious, that's a type of internal disturbance.
