lock down

EN: 'Lock down' (two words) is the phrasal verb meaning to secure or restrict; 'lockdown' (one word) is the noun or adjective form.

ja: 'Lock down'（2語）は、安全を確保するまたは制限するという意味の句動詞です。一方、'lockdown'（1語）は名詞または形容詞の形です。

綴りのヒント

EN: Remember that 'lockdown' (one word) is a noun/adjective, while 'lock down' (two words) is the verb. Writing 'lockdown' as a verb (e.g., 'they lockdown the city') is a common error.

ja: 'lockdown'（1語）は名詞・形容詞であり、'lock down'（2語）は動詞であることを覚えておきましょう。'lockdown'を動詞として書く（例：「they lockdown the city」）のは一般的な誤りです。
