一台液晶电视机:

1366乘以768的分辨路,5毫秒的快速响应时间,性能极佳,还配有多功能接口。

 

配有 = 'with' or 'equipped with' or 'has' or that just depends on who is translating? Or does '配有‘ have some special not easily apparent meaning?

 

Personally I think 配有 is the contraction of '配备有‘.

 

The Taiwan dictionary which was recommended to me does not have '配有‘, nor do the other online dictionaries I usually use.

 

 

性能极佳,还配有多功能接口。

, (its) performance is extremely good, (it) also comes with a multi-function input socket.

Wenlin has it listed:

 

配有 pèiyǒu {E} v. be equipped with | Dàshị̌guǎn ∼ ménwèi. 大使馆∼门卫。 The embassy is equipped with guards.

I agree

Thanks for the comments. Do you think 有多功能接口 means 1 multi-function socket, or several different sockets?

 

It is actually unlikely that it would only have one input socket.

I only know it has multi-function socket(s). Other than that is not sure :)

I think this is an odd way to use 配有.

I've never seen "ị̌" used before in a pinyin transcription in place of "ǐ". Does the dot have any particular significance (tone sandhi? Unstressed syllable?)

Underdot in Wenlin 4.0 onwards represents tone sandhi.

That strikes me as a good convention, especially for beginners. Pity it's not used elsewhere (and not easy to input...)

"Underdot in Wenlin 4.0 onwards represents tone sandhi."

I have not looked at how Wenlin does it, but I suspect this is courting troubles, as strings of more than 2 consecutive third tones don't follow fixed patterns of tone-sandhi.
