名詞

disco (countable and uncountable, plural discos)

1. (countable, slightly dated) Clipping of discotheque (“nightclub for dancing”).

   Synonyms: club, nightclub

   • 1986, Morrissey & Johnny Marr, “Panic”, in The World Won’t Listen, performed by The Smiths:

     Burn down the disco / Hang the blessed DJ / Because the music that they constantly play / It says nothing to me about my life

2. (uncountable, music) A genre of dance music that was popular in the 1970s, characterized by elements of soul music with a strong Latin-American beat and often accompanied by pulsating lights.
   • 2009, Marcus Reeves, Somebody Scream!‎, Farrar, Straus and Giroux, →ISBN:

     And black music became a hot commodity in the form of disco, its lyrics and rhythm laced with a palpable (even ethnic) amiguity, helping people dance and escape their concerns. Even the cry of “burn, baby, burn”, a popular chant during many a 1960s urban rebellion, was co-opted by the times, becoming the chorus for the 1977 dance hit “Disco Inferno.”

3. (British) A dance, a social gathering where dancing is the main activity.
