the Crown Estate
/ðə ˌkraʊn ɪˈsteɪt/
/ðə ˌkraʊn ɪˈsteɪt/
- all the lands and buildings owned by the British King or Queen and the money that is made from them. In 1760, King George III gave up the rights to these in return for the Civil List, a payment made to the King or Queen every year by Parliament. As a result the money from the Crown Estate is now collected by the government for the British people.
皇冠庄园：英国国王或王后拥有的所有土地和建筑物，以及从中获得的金钱。1760年，乔治三世国王（George III）放弃了这些权利，以换取《公民名单》，这是国会每年向国王或王后支付的款项。结果，皇冠庄园的钱现在由政府为英国人民收取。
