2/15(六) Lantern 馬臉燈籠

Lantern

Lantern in english means a portable way to bring light.

As a child my parents would tell me about how in england

it would become so foggie at night due to burning of coal

in peoples houses that bus companies would employ a person

to walk infront of a bus with a lantern to warn other vechiles

of them being on the road.

燈籠

不止是台灣有哦.在英國也有.英國人也用燈籠來做照明

TEACHER的爸爸媽媽跟TEACHER說過,在早期時,因為英國

地形很容易起霧,加上天冷大家都燒煤取暖,所以在行車巴士

有個人提起燈籠,以警示路人.讓Eva回想起一些經典福爾摩斯的影片中,

在霧濛濛的敦倫街景.

This is further details of how lantern is both used and its history:
