今天一个朋友发短信问我,AM是什么意思?
我的第一反应是:上午 before noon
调幅 Amplitude Modulation
然后我问他,是不是还有FM啊?
这兄弟告诉我,与OEM相对的,汽车界的。
想了想,OEM是前装市场,Original Equipment Manufacture(原始设备制造商)
那AM应该是售后的吧,就告诉他是后装相关的,但不确定是什么的缩写。就让他确定下是不是after manufacturing。
晚上回来核实了一下,其实不是,是aftermarket。
另:原廠零件(OES, Original Equipment Service) 及非原廠廠零件(AM, After Market)
维基上的解释如下:
Aftermarket (automotive), the addition of non-factory parts, accessories and upgrades to a motor vehicle.
After-market (general), any market where customers who buy one product or service are likely to buy a related, follow-on product. For example, customers who install a software package will constitute an after-market for software support services.
Aftermarket (finance) or Secondary market is the financial market for trading of securities that have already been issued.
