A gale is a very strong wind, with speeds between 39-46 miles per hour (63-74 kilometers per hour) or more. It is classified as a moderate windstorm and can cause damage to trees, power lines, and buildings.
The term "gale" comes from the Old Norse word "gola", which means "to sing." It was used to describe the sound that wind makes as it blows through trees or across open water.
Examples:
"The gale knocked out power to thousands of homes."
"The ship was tossed around by the gale."
"Forecasters are warning of a gale-force wind tonight."
中文翻译:
"强风把数千户人家的电力切断了"
"船被大风摇来摇去"
"预报员警告今晚会有强风"
