Let’s talk about something that we’ve all asked at least once or twice: what’s CC and BCC and how are they different from TO? Here are your answers:
关于英文缩写，让我们来聊聊一些我们都至少问过一到两次的问题：什么是CC跟BCC呢？而他们又与TO有什么不同呢？这就为你解答！
To（发送给）
The ‘To’ field should be intended for the targeted recipients of the mail. If you have multiple recipients in the TO field, all their address will be visible to each other.
这个「TO」就是你要记送信件的目标收件人，如果你有复数的收件人在「TO」栏，每位收件人都可以看见彼此的信箱地址。
Example:
比如说：
If your email is directed at Johnny AND Mary about an upcoming meeting with a client, put both of their email addresses in the TO field. 如果有一封关于与客户的会议的信件需要同时寄给Johnny和Mary，就把各自的信箱地址放在TO这个栏即可！
CC (Carbon Copy)（副本）
It works just like the real carbon copy paper, it ‘copies’. You’ll still be able to see all the others’ addresses entered in the TO field, as well as the ones entered in the CC field. However, recipients in the CC field will know that this email was intended for and targeted at those in the TO field, but the CC recipients may be somewhat involved in the situation so the sender feels like they should be kept in the loop.
这就像是真的纸本副本，用来复制你的信件。你仍然可以看见所有在TO栏位的信箱地址，还有放在CC栏位的信箱地址。然而再CC栏位的收件人会知道这个信件是特地寄给TO栏位的人，但因CC栏位的人与此信件有相关联，所以寄件人也寄给他（CC栏位的人），希望对方也能够得知事情的最新资讯。
Example:
比如说:
If your email is directed at Johnny and Mary, put their email addresses in the TO field, but if you also feel like your manager should stay updated, you can put your manager’s email in the CC field. 如果你有一封信件要寄给Johnny和Mary，把他们信箱地址放在TO的栏位。但若你觉得你的经理也应得到最新消息，你应该把经理人的信箱地址放在CC栏位。
BCC (Blind Carbon Copy)（密件副本）
This is probably the most different, and rather useful, function in emails. Addresses entered in the BCC field will NOT be visible to all other recipients (including other BCC recipients). However, should the email also have TO and CC recipients, those addresses will still be visible to every recipient (including BCC). No one BUT the sender can see all the BCC recipient addresses.
这是最特别的一个英文缩写，且非常的有用！在BCC栏位的收件人不会看见BCC栏位的其他收件人。然而BCC栏位的人可以看见所有TO栏位与CC栏位的人。除了寄件人本身可以看到所有BCC栏位的人，其他栏位的人都不会看见BCC栏位的人。
Note that any replies to the original email will NOT be sent to these people because their addresses will not be detected by other recipients’ email service providers. BCC recipients will only be able to see their own email addresses in the BCC field. This function is also extremely useful when you are sending an email to a bigger crowd but you don’t want to leak anyone’s contact information and email address.
特别注意的是，当任何收件者回复信件时，并不会再寄到他不知情的那些信箱地址。BCC栏位的人只能在这个栏位中看到自己。当你要寄给一大群人但是你不想透漏某些人的资讯与信件网址时，特别好用！
Example:
比如说:
That email that you sent to Johnny and Mary, as well as CC-ed to your manager, about the meeting with a client: maybe you plan to have a few surprises that involve other people, but you needed to keep things on the down low, enter these anonymous addresses in the BCC field. No one but you (the sender) can see their addresses. 你想传送给Johnny和Mary的那封与客户开会的信，也用CC传给了经理，但也许你与其他人计划着惊喜，但你需要低调行事，所以在BCC输入了这些不想公开的信箱地址。除了你（寄件人）之外没有人看得见BCC里的信箱地址。
英文缩写在商务场合以及信件中几乎是不可避免的，多学一些内容一定可以帮助你与客户更同事更好沟通喔。
