「每日英文閱讀分享#010」
今天的文章：Abandoning Globalization Will Only Hurt U.S. Businesses，標題已經完全道盡作者的想法，但是他舉出了四點，為什麼deglobalization對於美國是有害的，一樣會把連結附在下面喔！
（再度預告，本週會整理跟international business相關的報導一起做講解，希望可以也跟大家有些討論～）
回到今天的單字，
「decouple」分享的原因，是因為用拆解的方法來看，這個字就是「不當情侶了」感覺很可愛（還是很悲傷？），卻是一個正式的商業用字。
動詞意思是：to separate two or more things or activities, or to become separated，
當作名詞時會變成「decoupling」意思為：a situation in which two or more activities are separated, or do not develop in the same way
常用的動詞用法為：decouple (sth) from sth
例句：Europe and Japan might decouple from the United States by growing on their own, but right now they're dependent. --Cambridge Dictionary
再給大家一個用於國家的例句給大家看看：Tractors that haul Mexican-made goods to American consumers must decouple from their trailers on the Mexican side. --Cambridge Dictionary
或是用在公司之間：Zhang also began trying to decouple the company’s technology from China, and has pointed out that all the data on U.S. TikTok users is stored in the United States and backed up in Singapore. — Washington Post, "TikTok’s fate was shaped by a ‘knockdown, drag-out’ Oval Office brawl," 8 Aug. 2020
就是沒有用於分手的用法（期望落空中ＸＤ）
最後還是正經一點附上原文的例句：
1. Coming on the heels of the trade war and Washington’s push to de-couple economically from China, this has brought widespread predictions of deglobalization.
2. They know that deglobalization of supply chains and de-coupling from China will actually reduce their ability to produce in the U.S. and compete with Chinese companies in the long run.
