關於Cemetery的意思和用法的提問

A: contains

A: it just means he goes to the cemetery.

The “down” part could mean that the cemetery is literally a “downward” drive from where he lives. To get to the cemetery he travels north to south for example.

A: Cemetery has the same meaning as graveyard :)

A: the same as graveyard, somewhere people are burried

A: Good question! They mean the same thing, but cemetery sounds more elegant, dignified, beautiful, etc., like the ones next to churches or where you would go to visit the grave of someone you knew. Graveyard is the word you would use at Halloween, talking about ghosts and zombies and the graveyard being a scary place. But even though they have those different connotations, in normal situations you can use either one. “There’s a graveyard a block from my house” or “I live down the street from the cemetery” – both sound totally normal.

A: A graveyard is a small burial ground attached to a church.

A cemetery is a large burial site that is not usually associated with a church.

A: Same thing, but I would say Cemetery feels less creepy and more proper than graveyard.

A: Today in American English we use them exactly the same. Most people probably don't know the difference. But if you want to get technical then a graveyard is located near a church or churchyard where a cemetery is any other burial land.
