(美式橄榄球)两分转换:球队在达阵(touchdown)后选择进行一次短码数进攻(通常从两码线附近开始),若成功再得2分;不同于踢加分球(extra point)的1分。也常写作 two-point conversion 或简称 two-point try。
/ˌtuː ˌpɔɪnt kənˈvɝːʒən/
After the touchdown, the coach called for a two-point conversion.
达阵后,教练决定尝试两分转换。
They trailed by two late in the game, so a successful two-point conversion was the only way to tie it without giving the ball back with time left.
比赛末段他们落后2分,因此成功的两分转换是把比分扳平的唯一办法,而且还能避免留太多时间把球权还给对手。
two-point 表示“得两分的”,conversion 原意为“转换、改换”,在体育语境中引申为“把一次得分机会转换为额外得分”。该说法在美式橄榄球规则中固定化,用来指代达阵后的“改用一次进攻来换取2分”的加分方式。
