「人踩人」 (Stampede)

有讀者問「人踩人」的英文是甚麼?在人多擠逼的情況,「人踩人」事件不時發生。它是Stampede,即是「驚跑、
奔逃」的意思。例如月前山西省一家中學在下課後發生「人踩人」意外,導致六名學生喪生,三十九名學生受傷。

Six middle school students were killed and 39 injured in a stampede after a study session in Jiangxi province。當時,一名學生在學校的2樓和3樓的梯間蹲下來綁上鞋帶,其他學生相繼仆倒,因而造成 「人踩人」意外。One student squatted down to tie shoelaces on a staircase between the first and second floors of the school. The students then started falling over each other, sparking the stampede。

其他例子 :School stampedes involving deaths and injuries have become a frequent occurrence across the country
in recent years 是「近年來,涉及傷亡的校園『人踩人』事件在全國各地經常發生」。
