But the newer sense is now the most common use of the verb in all varieties of writingand should be considered entirely standard.discomfit 起初确实意为“打败,挫败”, 该词的新意义是“使困窘,使窘迫”,这个词义的生成部分原因,可能是由于和discomfort 的混淆引起。 但是新的词义现在在各种写作中是该动词的最普遍的用法,应被看作是完全标准的〔embarrass〕To cause to feel self-conscious or ill at ease; disconcert:使窘迫,使局促不安:使…觉得不好意思或不舒服;使困窘: |
