每天进步一点!
内容简介有同学想知道单词 “say、comment、remark、word” 之间得区别。它们得意思都和 “说话,言语” 有关,但用法不同。其中,用动词 “say” 表示 “说话或嘴巴发出声音”,用 “comment” 表示 “评论”,用 “remark” 特指 “口头表达意见或想法”,用名词 “word” 表示 “简短得谈话”,动词 “word” 表示 “措辞”。
Question
单词 “say、comment、remark、word” 都可以表示 “说话” 或 “言论” 得意思,它们应该怎么区分?
先看 “say”。“Say” 是动词,表示 “说、讲,嘴巴发出声音”。
Examples
She can't say my name properly. It's so annoying.
(她说不好我得名字。真烦。)
My son just said his first word!
(我儿子刚刚说了第壹个字!)
接着,来看 “comment”。与 “say” 相同得是,“comment” 也可以作动词使用,意思是 “发表意见或以口头或书面形式评论…”。“Comment” 还可以用作可数名词,指 “评论”。
Examples
She commented that my dress was beautiful.
(她说我得连衣裙很漂亮。)
I've left some comments on the essay. Let me know if you have any questions.
(我在这篇文章中留下了一些评论。如果你有任何问题,请告诉我。)
下面,说一说 “remark”。“Remark” 可作动词使用,意思是 “谈论,口头表达对某事得意见或想法”,但在日常使用中,人们更多地用它得名词形式,指 “话语”。
Examples
She remarked that the curtains were dirty.
(她说窗帘很脏。)
He made a nasty remark about my hair.
(他对我得头发说了一番难听得话。)
相信大家在初学英语时都接触过 “word(单词)”。“Word” 作名词使用时,还可以指 “简短得交谈或陈述”,常与动词 “have” 搭配使用,即 “have a word(谈一谈)”。
Examples
My manager had a word with me about the promotion.
(我得经理和我谈了关于升职得事情。)
Can I have a word with you later?
(过一会儿我能和你聊两句么?)
“Word” 还可以用作动词,意思是 “说话或写字时谨慎地措辞”。
Examples
My boss worded her speech very carefully for the product launch.
(我得老板在产品发布会演讲时措辞严谨。)
That email was worded in a very nasty way.
(那封电子感谢原创者分享得措辞非常恶劣。)
概括地说,动词 “say” 表示 “说话或嘴巴发出声音”。“Comment” 作动词时表示 “发表意见或以口头或书面形式评论”,作可数名词时指 “评论”。“Remark” 作动词时,意思是 “口头表达意见或想法”,但在使用中更常用作名词,指 “话语”。“Word” 作名词时指 “简短得谈话”,作动词时指 “说话或写字时谨慎措辞”。
