Tandem (or in tandem) is an arrangement in which a team of machines, animals or people are lined up one behind another, all facing in the same direction. The original use of the term in English was in ''tandem harness'', which is used for two or more draft horses, or other draft animals, harnessed in a single line one behind another, as opposed to a pair, harnessed side by side, or a team of several pairs. The tandem harness allows additional animals to provide pulling power for a vehicle designed for a single animal. The English word ''tandem'' derives with a word play from the Latin adverb , meaning ''at length'' or ''finally''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Tandem )〕 Tandem seating may be used on a tandem bicycle where it is alternative to sociable seating. ''Tandem'' can also be used more generally to refer to any group of persons or objects working together, not necessarily in line.〔 ==Automobiles== The Messerschmitt KR200 was an example of a very small automobile that used tandem seating. A tandem arrangement may also be used for cars parked in a residential garage. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「tandem」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
