Usage Note :

In British English, rubbish is the word most commonly used to refer to waste material that is thrown away. In American English, the words garbage and trash are more usual. ...the smell of rotting garbage... She threw the bottle into the trash. Garbage and trash are sometimes used in British English, but only informally and metaphorically. I don't have to listen to this garbage... The book was trash.

在英国英语中,rubbish最常用来表示丢弃的废物,但是在美国英语中garbage和trash更为常用,如:the smell of rotting garbage (腐烂垃圾的臭味),She threw the bottle into the trash (她把瓶子扔进了垃圾堆)。garbage和trash有时也在英国英语中使用,但仅限于非正式语体和比喻用法:I don't have to listen to this garbage (我不需要听这些废话),The book was trash (这本书简直是垃圾)。
