the Battle of Bunker Hill
/ðə ˌbætl əv ˌbʌŋkə ˈhɪl/
/ðə ˌbætl əv ˌbʌŋkər ˈhɪl/
- the first major battle of the American Revolution. It is named wrongly because the battle was actually fought on Breed's Hill. It was on 17 June 1775 near Boston. Although the British won, the Americans were encouraged because they fought well and killed many British soldiers until they had used all their bullets.
邦克山战役:美国独立战争的第一场重大战役。之所以命名错误,是因为战斗实际上是在Breed's Hill进行的。那是1775年6月17日在波士顿附近。尽管英国人获胜,但美国人受到鼓舞,因为他们打得很好,杀死了许多英国士兵,直到他们用尽了所有子弹。
