Single room
SING-gel room
Neutral Neutral
What it really means
A bedroom with a single bed, smaller and cheaper than a double. Note: it means the room size, not "for one person" — almost all rooms in UK house shares are for one person anyway.
Chinese explanation
放单人床的卧室，比双人间小且便宜。注意：它指房间大小，而不是"限住一人"——英国合租房的房间本来几乎都是单人住。
Example conversation
A: The single room is £90 a week.
B: That’s decent for this area — is it available from September?
A：单人间每周90英镑。
B：在这个区域算不错了——9月起可以入住吗？
