whereabouts #2

　コンサート会場で発生したテロ事件の影響で，英国のテロ警戒レベルが上っております。さらなるテロ行為に対する警戒が必要であるとメイ首相は述べました。多くの軍人が英国内の警備にあたっております。
　記事の中で気になった単語は"whereabouts"です。『Wisdom英和辞典第三版』（三省堂）には「A<人・物> の居所, 所在, ありか, 行方」などという意味がありました。Oxford Dictionaries.comには"The place where someone or something is."と定義されております。テロ行為が警戒されるのは事件の首謀者が単独であるのか複数のグループであるのかが不明なためです。(Ume)
