释义 | 〔identify〕In the sense "to associate or affiliate (oneself) closely with a person or group,”identify has developed two distinct subsenses. In one, the verb suggests a psychological empathy with the feelings or experiences of another person,as inMost young readers readily identify (or identify themselves ) with Holden Caulfield. This usage derives originally from psychoanalytic writing,where it has a specific technical sense,but like other terms from that field,it was widely regarded as jargon when introduced into the wider discourse.In particular,critics seized on the fact that in this sense the verb was often used intransitively,with no reflexive pronoun.As Wilson Follett wrote in 1966,"The critic . . . could help restore the true notion in these words if he would give upidentifying at large and resume identifying himself with Ivan Karamazov, Don Quixote, Mary Poppins, or whomever.” In recent years, however, this use ofidentify with without the reflexive has become a standard locution. Eighty-two percent of the Usage Panel accepts the sentenceI find it hard to identify with any of his characters; whereas only 63 percent now accepts this same usage when the reflexive pronoun is used,as inI find it hard to identify myself with any of his characters. · Omission of the reflexive with this use ofidentify serves among other things to distinguish it from use of the verb to mean "to associate (oneself) with the goals, interests, or principles of a group.” This use of the verb can be traced back to the 18th century,but it is now somewhat less acceptable to the Panel than the first sense under discussion:58 percent of the Panel accepts the sentenceShe identified herself with the campaign against drug abuse, and only 40 percent acceptsShe identified with the campaign against drug abuse, where no reflexive pronoun is used. 在“使(自己)密切联系或依附于别人”这一意思中的。identify 一词又有两种不同的含义。 第一,这个动词表现了对其他人的感情或经历在心理上的认同,例如大多数青年读者很快认同了 (或 identify themselves ) 霍尔顿·科尔菲德。 这种用法来源于有关心理分析的著作,在这些著作中,这个词具有特殊的科技含义,不过就象从该领域引入的其它词语一样,这个词在日常生活使用中还带有专业术语的痕迹。特别指出的是,批评家们在发现这个词常常作为不及物动词来用,后面不带反身代词。正如威尔逊·福勒特1966年写到的,“如果评论家们很早就全面放弃identifying 而重新使用 identifying himself with 伊万·卡拉玛佐夫、堂吉诃德、玛丽·波普斯等人物,那就会有助于探询出这些词的真实含意。” 不过,近年来使用identify with 中间不加反身代词已成为一种标准搭配。 用法专题小组中82%的成员认为我觉得很难认同于他小说中的人物 一句是正确的; 而现在只有63%的成员接受使用反身代词来表达同一意思的句子,即I find it hard to identify myself with any of his characters。 省略反身代词以及其它一些方法,使identify 这种用法区别于它作为动词在“与某个集团的目标、利益或原则相联系”一句中的意思。 它作为动词的用法可追溯到18世纪,不过对于用法专题小组来说它没有第一种解释那样被易于接受:58%的小组成员接受她支持反对滥用药物的运动 这一说法, 只有40%的成员接受不要反身代词的She identified with the campaign against drug abuse 这一说法 〔empathy〕Identification with and understanding of another's situation, feelings, and motives.See Synonyms at pity 移情作用:认同和理解别人的处境、感情和动机 参见 pity〔curmudgeon〕The etymology of the wordcurmudgeon has eluded us for at least two centuries, although some lexicographers have thought the solution was at hand, one to his embarrassment.When Samuel Johnson stated in his famous dictionary of 1755 thatcurmugeon "is a vicious manner of pronouncing c÷ur méchant, Fr. an unknown correspondent,” he was giving credit to an anonymous writer for the statement thatcurmudgeon came from French c÷ur, "heart,” and méchant, "evil.” Another lexicographer, John Ash, following in Johnson's tracks though none too carefully,gave the etymology a bit differently in his dictionary of 1775:"from the Frenchc÷ur unknown, and mechant a correspondent"; thus misinterpreting Johnson's attribution as a gloss for the French.Although its origin is unknown,curmudgeon has been around for some time, being first recorded in a work published in 1577. 单词curmudgeon 的词源已经使我们困惑了至少有两个世纪, 虽然有些词典的编辑者已经认为快找到解决方式了,但仍使某些人局促不安。当塞缪尔·约翰逊在他的举世闻名的1755年词典中指出Curmugeon “是对 cour mechant 这一法语词语的错误发音方式(它意指不知名的通讯记者)”时, 他认同一位不署名作家认为curmudgeon 一词来自法语 cour “心”和 mechant “罪恶”的陈述是正确的。 另一个名叫约翰·艾什的词典编辑者承袭了约翰逊的思路,但他也并非很严格地遵循,在他的1775年词典中对该词源作了稍有差别的解释: “从法语cour (不知名的)和 mechant (一名通讯记者)而来”; 由此他误解了约翰逊对于法语的译注。虽然该词词源未知,curmudgeon 已有了一定的历史,它首次被记录于1577年出版的一部作品中 〔timeserver〕One who conforms to the prevailing ways and opinions of one's time or condition for personal advantage; an opportunist.随波逐流的人:为了个人好处而认同自己所处时期或状况中流行的方式或观念的人;机会主义者〔craft〕Craft has been used as a verb since the Old English period and was used in Middle English to refer specifically to the artful construction of a text or discourse.In recent years,crafted, the past participle of craft, has enjoyed a vogue as a participle referring to well-wrought writing. This may be a sign that the Jamesian conception of the literary muse has begun to yield to a Trollopian conception of literature as a kind of intellectual handicraft;or it may indicate little more than the desperation with which book reviewers seize on any novel adjective.In any event, the usage is more acceptable when applied to literary works than to other sorts of writing,and more acceptable as a participle than as a verb.It was acceptable to 73 percent of the Usage Panel in the phrasebeautifully crafted prose. By contrast, only 35 percent of the Panel accepted the sentenceThe planners crafted their proposal so as to anticipate the objections of local businesses. Craft 这一词语在古英语时期就被用作动词, 在中古英语中它被用来指某一课文或论述的精巧句法结构。近几年来,crafted 即 craft 这一词的过去分词被广泛用于描述写作佳品。 这可能是詹姆士文学灵感观念开始让位于作为一种智力创作技巧的特罗洛普文学观念的一个信号;或者它也有可能暗示了书评作者们对采用小说修饰语的进一步失望。不管怎样,把它用于指文学作品比用于指其它类型的写作更易被人接受,而用作分词比用作动词更易被人接受。用法专题使用小组中73%的成员认同它在精美构思的散文 这一短语中的用法。 与此相反,只有35%的成员认同它在策划者们制订计划以预防地方商业的阻挠 这一句子中的用法 〔parent〕The Usage Panel is better disposed to accept the verbparent than in previous surveys, though a majority continues to find it unacceptable.In 1968 it was acceptable to only 19 percent of the Panel;in the most recent survey45 percent accepted it in the sentenceIn looking for foster homes, we give preference first to relatives and second to families with prior experience in parenting. · The use of the verbparent to mean "act as a parent to" is not entirely new:it occurs as early as 1884 in a metaphorical context.But its use in a literal sense with respect to children is a recent development and reflects a modern reconceptualization of family life.The word is not completely synonymous with the traditional expressionraise a child, though the precise nature of the differences may depend on the context.For some speakers,use of the word suggests a self-conscious shift from child to parent as the focus of the parental relationship,and it may be this implication that feeds critical reservations about the verb.But the usage also reflects a widespread practical realizationthat the activities required of a parent extend well beyond the direct interactionwith the child emphasized inchild raising. Thus theparenting classes for young parents offered by schools and state agencies encompass not only the activities traditionally associated with raising a childbut also topics such as personal self-sufficiency, household financial management, and methods of dealing with schools and health care agencies.See Usage Note at father 用法小组比以往更倾向于接受动词parent 了, 虽然还有大部分人觉得不可接受。1968年仅有19%的小组成员认同这种用法;在最近的调查中,有45%的人接受了它,如在:在寻找收养家庭时,我们首先选孩子的亲戚,其次是有过养育孩子经历的家庭 这样的句子中的用法。 Parent 的意为“做…的父(母)”动词用法, 并不完全是个新用法:早在1884年,在一个比喻性的文章中就出现过了。但就孩子这方面而言,它的本义是近期发展的结果并反映了现代家庭生活的观念。这个词并不与习语 raise a child 完全同义, 尽管不同之处确切的性质可能取决于说话背景。但对一些人来说,使用这个词暗含一个把家长的关系作为重点的自觉的从孩子到父母的转换,也许正是这个隐含的用意引起了关于这个动词批评性的保留。然而,这个用法也反映了广泛的现实认识,即要求父母的活动扩展到超出直接与孩子的相互作用,这个相互作用在 child raising 这个短语中有所强调。 因此,由学校和国家专门部门向年轻家长提供的 parenting 课, 不仅包括传统上与抚养孩子有关的事务,而且还包括诸如个人自给自足、家庭财政管理和同学校和保健部门打交道的方法等课题 参见 father〔intrigue〕The introduction of the verbintrigue to mean "to arouse the interest or curiosity of" was initially resisted by writerson usage as an unneeded French substitute for available English words such asinterest, fascinate, or puzzle, but it now appears to be well established.Seventy-eight percent of the Usage Panel accepts it in the sentenceThe special-quota idea intrigues some legislators, who have asked a Washington think tank to evaluate it, whereas only 52 percent accepted it in a 1968 survey.意为“激起…的兴趣或好奇心”的动词intrigue 的引入, 最初遭到作家们的抵制,他们认为在用法上没有必要用法语词代替现成的英语词汇,例如interest,fascinate 或者 puzzle, 但是现在它已经被普遍认可。用法专题小组百分之七十八的成员认同它存在于句子特殊配额的意见吸引了一些立法者,他们要求华盛顿智囊团对此进行评价 中, 而在1986年的调查中只有百分之五十二的人同意〔honor〕Glory or recognition; distinction.荣耀或认同;荣誉〔Senghor〕Senegalese poet and politician who served (1960-1980) as the first president of Senegal following independence from France. The author of many volumes of poetry, he contributed to the development of the concept of negritude.桑戈尔,列坡尔德:塞内加尔诗人与政治家,在塞内加尔脱离法国而独立后,出任第一任总统。他创作了许多诗集,对黑人文化传统的认同这一概念的发展作出了贡献〔only〕Dictators respect only force;独裁者只认同暴力;〔oh〕Used to indicate understanding or acknowledgment of a statement.噢:表示对于陈述的理解或认同〔know〕Used parenthetically in conversation, as to fill pauses or educe the listener's agreement or sympathy:你知道,你要知道:在谈话中作插入语,用于填补停顿或获取听者的赞同或认同:〔Logos〕In Stoicism, the active, material, rational principle of the cosmos; nous. Identified with God, it is the source of all activity and generation and is the power of reason residing in the human soul.理性,理念:斯多葛学派中宇宙的活跃的、物质的、理性的原则;常识。当被认同为上帝时,它是所有活动和产生的源泉,是存在于人类灵魂中的推理能力〔hunks〕A disagreeable and often miserly person.守财奴:让人无法认同且通常为吝啬的人〔formalize〕To give formal standing or endorsement to; make official or legitimate by the observance of proper procedure.使正式,使有效:给予正式的认同;通过奉行正常的手续使成为法定的或合法的〔identification〕A person's association with the qualities, characteristics, or views of another person or group.认同,有关联:一个人与其他人或人群在品质、特征或观念等方面的联系〔pity〕Empathy is a vicarious identification with and understanding of another's situation, feelings, and motives: Empathy 是一种对他人的处境、感情或动机的认同和理解: 〔accept〕Such customs are widely accepted.这样的风俗是被普遍认同的〔challenged〕People who object to the termsdisabled and handicapped as being too negative sometimes propose the substitution of challenged instead, as in referring to persons with physical disabilities as physically challenged. While this particular phrase is quite popular, it is sometimes taken to be condescending, and similar usages such as mentally challenged have failed to win equal acceptance. Indeed, the widespread parody of challenged in such expressions as electronically challenged for "inept at using computers" has effectively eliminated it as an all-purpose alternative to disabled or handicapped. 一些觉得使用disabled 和 handicapped 字眼过于负面的人,偶会以委婉的 challenged 代替,如用 physically challenged 指肢体有缺陷。这个特别词汇的使用相当普遍,因为有时会被视为较谦逊的用法,不过相似用法的接受度不一定相同, mentally challenged 这个用法便无法获得相同的认同。事实上,广为流传的 challenged 谐谑用法如以 electronically challenged(计算机残障) 来形容计算机白痴,已使得其全面替代 disabled 或 handicapped 沦为梦想 〔good〕Socially correct; proper:社交上被认同的:〔marketplace〕A situation or place in which values, opinions, and ideas are put forward for debate or recognition:交流场所:提出价值、观点或想法以供讨论或认同的处所或地点:〔buy〕couldn't buy into that brand of conservatism.无法认同保守主义的作风〔about〕I am not about to concede the point.我一点也不认同这个观点 |
