Definition: Ball是指舞會，通常在酒店或大酒樓舉行既宴會，禮貌上是要盛裝出席，我們畢業禮上的prom也可以叫Ball，傳統上同學都會穿著tuxedo或禮服以示尊重。隨時代變遷，宴會的內容簡單化了，穿著隨便些也不是大問題，反正現在的人都轉投去了移民講座，重Ball乜鬼？(Ball refers to dance party, held in a hotel or large restaurant banquet, which we politely attend dressed. A graduation prom can be called Ball, and students wear tuxedo or dress to show respect. As times change, the banquet has simplified, and dressing casually is not a big problem. Anyway, people nowadays have switched to immigration lectures, why go to a ball?)
