The news often refers to a 'Downing Street spokesperson'.
Tips
usage
In Chinese news, 唐宁街 is a metonym for the UK government - the same way 白宫 (White House) stands for the US administration. The street is named after 17th-century English diplomat Sir George Downing.
memory
唐 (Táng) = 'Tang (dynasty)' + 宁 (níng) = 'peaceful' both are auspicious characters often chosen for transliteration, so the name sounds both foreign and dignified.
