山寨 copycatting This Chinese term literally refers to the mountainstrong holds of bandits. First borrowed to describe rip-off products,it has evolved to refer also to homemade products, such as video parodies of movies。从上文中可知道,山寨可有好几个对应的英文单词。首先是我们最常见的copycat 抄袭,其次是bandits 盗版,再次是rip-off(products)剽窃,最后是homemade(products)国产。根据情况选择吧。
