- 為什么選這個(gè)詞乔妈?
我們之前學(xué)過(guò)名詞“synonym”,今天我們要學(xué)習(xí)它的形容詞形式“synonymous”抹镊。synonymous 的意思是“同義的”娘香,常被用來(lái)表示“等同于…的”苍狰。
我們常用 A is synonymous with B 的句式表達(dá)“A 是 B 的代名詞”“一說(shuō)起 A,人們就會(huì)想到 B”烘绽。比如一說(shuō)到拉斯維加斯淋昭,人們可能首先會(huì)想到賭博,這時(shí)我們就可以說(shuō):
Las Vegas is synonymous with gambling.
或者:
Las Vegas and gambling are synonymous (with each other).
我們?cè)趯W(xué)“synonym”時(shí)有這樣一個(gè)例句:
Wang Sicong has been a synonym/byword for “fuerdai”?, the rich second generation.
這個(gè)句子也可以用 synonymous 來(lái)改寫(xiě)成:
Wang Sicong’s name has been synonymous with “fuerdai”, the rich second generation.
《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人》在一篇討論“孤獨(dú)”的文章中也用到了 synonymous:
Loneliness is not synonymous with social isolation (how often a person meets or speaks to friends and family) or with solitude (which implies a choice to be alone).
- 怎樣學(xué)會(huì)使用這個(gè)詞安接?
1)復(fù)習(xí)“synonym”的用法翔忽;使用《牛津英語(yǔ)搭配詞典》查“synonymous”,了解它作為形容詞時(shí)的常用搭配盏檐。
2)翻譯下面的句子:
說(shuō)到圣誕節(jié)歇式,人們常常會(huì)想到充滿節(jié)日氛圍的裝飾、禮物和圣誕老人胡野。
(參考翻譯:Christmas has always been synonymous with festive decorations, gifts, and Santa Claus.
場(chǎng)景:長(zhǎng)城是中國(guó)的象征材失。
造句:The GreatWall is synonymous with China.
