Tips

culture
Phonetic spelling of 'Camelot', King Arthur's mythical castle. In English the word is also used metaphorically for the Kennedy White House (1961–63) — a usage that occasionally surfaces in Chinese subtitles of American films and political docs.
usage
Other transliterations exist (米洛, ). 卡默洛 stresses the silent middle vowel — (mò, silent) is chosen for its sound, not meaning.
