Metropolis 大都市
Nowadays, it refers to a large city — particularly an important one. 这个词现在多指大都市，尤其是地位比较重要的城市。
In ancient Greece, metropolis referred to the mother city of a colony. Metropolis comes from the Greek mētēr ("mother") + polis ("city"). 在古希腊，metropolis指殖民地的宗主城市。Metropolis一词源于希腊语的mētēr(母亲)和polis(城市)。
