秋天無論東西方，在詩人口中都是浪漫的季節,裡面都有用到 autumn 或 fall ！

秋天可以說 autumn 或是 fall 。簡單來分的話，autumn 屬於英式、 fall 屬於美式，不過現在沒有那麼明確區分英式美式了，所以不管講哪個大家都能明白你在講秋天哦！

It was a breezy autumn night that I fell in love with him.
我在一個微風輕拂的秋夜裡愛上他。

autumn 也常常被拿來當作片語使用，像是 autumn year 是「晚年」的意思。

He spent his autumn years with his beloved one.
他與他的摯愛一起度過晚年。

現在就來看看西方國家是怎麼描寫秋季的吧！
