third-rate 是什么意思

中文翻译与英英解释

adj.
三等的,第三流的,低劣的,下等的。
of lesser quality than second-rate

In the British Royal Navy, a third rate was a ship of the line which from the 1720s mounted between 64 and 80 guns, typically built with two gun decks (thus the related term two-decker). Years of experience proved that the third rate ships embodied the best compromise between sailing ability (speed, handling), firepower, and cost.
