【求助】谁能帮忙翻译一下“中国有56个民族”？

hawa

如题。一定要准确。我有个故事，等有了答案我再讲。

峨眉峰

china is not a single ethnic nation ,in fact 56 ethnic groups

Deena

56 minority

轩辕无天

minority是少数民族的意思，汉族不是少数民族，所以，不能用这个词

我跟老外聊天时提起过，他们用的是nationalities.

谢谢楼上各位的回答！
我接受”56 ethnic groups“这个说法。

现在我开始讲我的故事：
有一天，一个黑人问我，"where r u from?" 我答："China"
0 Q+ W2 R( V  }5 {* |接着他问："China has 50 nations, is that true?"
我当时把nations理解为民族（不怕您见笑），所以我答："yes, even more."
. w' y1 N2 I3 h) A  K; t& p$ a  T* N紧接着这黑人说，"Do u know what nation mean? it means country."
这下子把我气着了，我立刻翻了脸，怒视着他问“what u mean？why u ask such question？”
他看我怒了，不停滴sorry，sorry，然后滚蛋了。
: ]2 q3 I# R. d1 B4 D7 N我也不知道我这样做是对还是错，只是觉得英语不好，很障碍。

  F! h* _) q5 T8 g0 [Nation has different meanings in different contexts. In worldwide diplomacy, nation can mean country or sovereign state.[1] The United Nations, for instance, speaks of how it was founded after the Second World War with “51 countries” and currently has “192 member states”.[2] Nation may more broadly refer to a community of people who share a common territory and government—but who are not necessarily a sovereign state; and who often share a common language, race, descent, and/or history, such as the “Palestinian nation”.[1] The word nation can more specifically refer to a tribe of North American Indians, such as the Cherokee Nation.[1]
