酒精度的定義是指酒中純乙醇(酒精)所含的容量百分比。比如某酒100毫升中純乙醇含量為10毫升，這種酒的酒度就是10度。
英語中可以表達為
Alcohol by volume
Alcohol by
volume (
abbreviated as ABV, abv, or alc/vol) is a
standard measure of how much
alcohol (
ethanol) is
contained in a
given volume of an
alcoholic beverage (
expressed as a volume
percent).
酒精體積(簡寫為ABV、abv或alcvol)是衡量酒精飲料中酒精(乙醇)含量的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)方法(以體積百分比表示)。
It is
defined as the
number of millilitres (mL) of pure ethanol
present in 100 mL (3.4 fl. oz) of
solution at 20 °C (68 °F).
它是指在20攝氏度(68華氏度)下，100毫升(3.4盎司)的溶液中所含的純乙醇的毫升數(shù)。
The ABV standard is used
worldwide.ABV標(biāo)準(zhǔn)在世界范圍內(nèi)使用。
例：wine at 12% ABV12度的酒
A：What's the alcohol
content of
QingDao beer?青島啤酒的麥芽汁濃度是多少？（中文里“啤酒度數(shù)”一般指麥芽汁濃度，并不是酒精占比）B：It's
about 7%.大概百分之七。alcohol content（酒精容量）
另外，國外還有另一種常見的計量單位proof
If you get a
bottle of
vodka from your
local liquor store, you’ll
probably see two
different numbers telling you how much alcohol it
contains. The
first is an alcohol by volume (ABV)
percentage,
which is
relatively intuitive to
understand: it’s the percentage of alcohol in the
overall liquid and is
pretty standard
internationally.
如果你從當(dāng)?shù)氐木祁惿痰曩I了一瓶伏特加，你可能會看到兩個不同的數(shù)字告訴你酒里含有多少酒精。第一個是酒精體積百分比(ABV)，這是比較直觀的理解:它是酒精在整個液體中的百分比，在國際上是相當(dāng)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的。
The
other measurement is
proof, a measurement of alcohol content that
varies from
country to country. The proof measurement harks back to 16th-century
England, when the
government would put an
extra tax on “proof
spirits”—that is, liquor that contained a
certain higher amount of alcohol.
還有一種就是酒精濃度，各國的測量方法各不相同。這種酒精含量的測量方式可以追溯到16世紀(jì)的英國，當(dāng)時政府會對達到酒精濃度標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的，即酒精含量較高的烈性酒征收額外的稅。
A
pellet of
gunpowder was
soaked in spirits. If the pellet
burned, the spirits were
taxed at a higher rate. The
burning was proof of its alcohol content (
hence the term 'proof' to measure alcohol content).
方法就是將一粒火藥浸在烈性酒里。如果這粒火藥燃燒了，就證明酒為烈性酒，并將被征收更高的稅。燃燒是酒精含量的證明(因此有了測量酒精含量的“證明”一詞)。
注：啤酒的度數(shù)是指發(fā)酵液中麥芽糖的濃度，不是指成品酒中乙醇的含量，而葡萄酒的酒精度主要由葡萄果實中的含糖量決定。所以都和白酒的酒精度數(shù)不同。
