Foggy Bottom
/ˌfɒɡi ˈbɒtəm/
/ˌfɑːɡi ˈbɑːtəm/
- an area of low land in Washington, DC, by the Potomac River, on which the US State Department buildings are located. The name is also used to refer to the State Department itself, and journalists often joke that this is a good name for the Department, because the information it gives them is 'foggy' (not clear).
有雾的底部：位于波托马克河旁的华盛顿特区低地，美国国务院的建筑物就位于该区域。这个名字也用来指国务院本身，而记者经常开玩笑说这对国务院是个好名字，因为它给他们提供的信息是“模糊的”（不清楚）。
