最近聽人說起什么外企必知的幾個英文縮寫，像HR（human resource，人力資源）、OT（overtime，加班）等常見的縮寫都一閃而過，倒是有一個cc讓我停頓了好一會兒。你知道這個縮寫代表什么嗎？咱們今天就來說一說。

Carbon copying (abbreviated cc or c.c.) is the technique of using carbon paper to produce one or more copies simultaneously during the creation of paper documents.

復寫（carbon copying，簡寫為cc或c.c.）指在創建文本文件時用復寫紙同時復制出多個副本的技術。

The use of carbon copies declined with the advent of photocopying and electronic document creation and distribution (word processing). It is now common for a business letter to include, at the end, a list of names preceded by the abbreviation "cc:", indicating that the named persons are to receive a copy of the letter, even though carbon paper is no longer used to make the copies.

隨著復印技術以及電子文件創建和處理技術的出現，復寫技術的運用急劇減少。現在，很多商務信函的結尾處都會以“cc”開頭列出一些人名，表示這封信函要抄送給這些人看，不過已經不用復寫紙來創建副本了。
