Sixty years ago, H.W. Fowler recommended the pronunciation BAN-al (rhyming withpanel ), but this pronunciation is now regarded as recondite by most Americans:it is preferred by only 2 percent of the Usage Panel.Other possibilities are BANE-al (rhyming withanal ), preferred by 38 percent of the Panel; ba-NAL (rhyming withcanal ), preferred by 46 percent; and ba-NAHL (the last syllable rhyming withdoll ), preferred by 14 percent (this last pronunciation is more common in British English).Some panelists admit to being so vexed by the problem that they tend to avoid the word in conversation.Speakers can perhaps take comfort in knowing that any one of the last three pronunciations will have the support of a substantial minority, and that none of them is incorrect.When several pronunciations of a word are widely used,there is really no right or wrong one.单词banal 的发音在受过教育的讲美式英语的人中并未固定下来。 六十年前,H.W.福勒曾建议其发音为BAN-al(与panel 押韵), 但大多数美国人认为这一发音是晦涩难懂的:它只得到“惯用法专题研究小组”中2%成员的偏爱。另外可能的发音有BANE-al(与anal 押韵),得到38小组成员的认可; ba-NAL(与canal 押韵)得到46的认可; ba-NAHL(最后一个音节与doll 押韵),得到14的认可 (这最后一个发音在英国英语中更为常用)。一些小组成员承认,这个词的发音令他们太伤脑筋了以至他们在说话时尽量避免使用它。当使用者得知最后三个发音中的任何一个都有较为坚实的少数票的支持,且它们中的任何一个都不是错误的,也许会给他们一些安慰。当一个单词的几种发音都被广泛使用时,便的确无所谓对错了〔preference〕from preferer [to prefer] * see prefer 源自 preferer [偏爱] * 参见 prefer〔Juliana〕Queen of the Netherlands (1948-1980) who abdicated in favor of her daughter Beatrix.朱莉安娜:荷兰女王(1948-1980年),出于偏爱其女比阿特丽克斯而退位〔fondness〕a fondness for sweets; a fondness for travel.偏爱甜食;喜欢旅行〔preferential〕Manifesting or originating from partiality or preference:优惠的:显示或源于偏袒或偏爱的:〔partiality〕A special fondness; a predilection:偏爱:特殊的喜爱;对某物的偏爱:〔preferable〕More desirable or worthy than another; preferred:偏爱的:比另一个更合意或更有价值的;偏爱的:〔preference〕The state of being preferred.偏爱:被偏爱的状态〔pleasure〕One's preference or wish:喜好:某人的偏爱或愿望:〔Anglomania〕A strong predilection for anything English.英国狂,哈英族:对英国任何事物的强烈偏爱〔partiality〕a child with a grown-up partiality for rare and expensive foods.See Synonyms at predilection 一个对稀少的昂贵食物的偏爱不断增长的孩子 参见 predilection〔partial〕Favoring one person or side over another or others; biased or prejudiced:偏袒的:对于某人或某方面比另一个或比另外的更喜爱的;偏爱的或有偏见的:〔big〕Enthusiastic about; partial to:对…热心的;对…过分偏爱:〔laterality〕Preference in using one side of the body over the other.偏侧化:较偏爱使用其中一边的身体〔Celticism〕A fondness for Celtic culture.对凯尔特文化的偏爱〔prelate〕from Latin [past participle of] praeferre [to carry before, to prefer] 源自 拉丁语 praeferre的过去分词 [优先,偏爱] 〔penchant〕A definite liking; a strong inclination.See Synonyms at predilection 偏爱:强烈的倾向;嗜好 参见 predilection〔sentimentalism〕A predilection for the sentimental.溺于感情:偏爱感情〔nepotism〕Favoritism shown or patronage granted to relatives, as in business.任人唯亲:如在公事中对亲戚偏爱或袒护〔favoritism〕A display of partiality toward a favored person or group.偏爱:厚待某人或某一类人〔favor〕To be partial to; indulge a liking for:偏爱:偏袒;放纵对…的喜爱:〔favored〕Treated or thought of with great kindness or partiality:受到优待的:被以莫大的仁慈与偏爱对待的:〔predilection〕a partiality for liberal-minded friends;对思想开明之友人的偏爱;〔McLaughlin〕British jazz guitarist best known for his virtuosic playing and for his affinity for flamenco and Eastern music.麦克劳林,约翰:英国爵士乐吉它手,因其精湛的弹奏以及对佛来明哥舞曲与东方音乐的偏爱而著称〔Gallomania〕A strong predilection for anything French.法国狂:偏爱一切法国事物的强烈偏见〔discriminate〕To make distinctions on the basis of class or category without regard to individual merit; show preference or prejudice:差别待遇,歧视:不考虑个人的优点,而以等级或种类为根据加以区别;表现出偏爱或偏见: |
