This is where categories come in. WordPress comes with a powerful built-in system that allows you to sort your content into taxonomies.

这就是类别的来源。WordPress带有功能强大的内置系统，可让您将内容分类为分类法 。

By default, you have two taxonomies ready to use with your posts. These taxonomies are called categories and tags in WordPress.

默认情况下，您可以使用两种分类法来准备您的帖子。 这些分类法在WordPress中称为类别和标签。

Categories are hierarchical, and they are supposed to be used for a broader range of topics. Tags are non-hierarchical, and they can be used to sort articles for very specific topics.

类别是分层的，应该将它们用于更广泛的主题。 标签是非分层的，可以用于对非常特定主题的文章进行排序。

Since categories are hierarchical this means that they can have parent and child categories.

由于类别是分层的，这意味着它们可以具有父类别和子类别。

Most WordPress themes support multi-level menus. If you are using sub-categories, then you can easily add them under the parent category by moving them slightly towards right.

大多数WordPress主题都支持多级菜单。 如果使用的是子类别，则可以通过将它们稍微向右移动来轻松地将它们添加到父类别下。
