用法辨析
- sense的基本意思是“感官”,即人体感受客观事物刺激的器官(眼、耳、鼻、舌、身)或其所具有的功能; 也可表示“感觉”,即客观事物的个别特性在人脑中引起的反应。sense的复数形式可指五种感觉,即视觉、听觉、嗅觉、味觉、触觉。sense引申还可表示对价值的“理解,觉察,感悟,辨别”,常用作单数形式,但前常可加冠词a或the。
- sense也可表示“有见识,懂得”。
- sense还可作“理解”解,指健全的心智和思维的能力,常用于复数形式。sense还可作“意义”“意思”解,是可数名词。
- sense用作名词是“感官,感觉”的意思,转化为动词作“隐约感觉到; 意识到; 发觉”解,强调通过直觉而产生,不可与表示清晰感觉的词如冷、暖、快乐等连用。
- 在美国口语中, sense可作“领会”“发觉”“认识”解。
- sense是及物动词,接名词、代词、that从句,或疑问词引导的从句作宾语; 还可接“to be+ n. / adj. ”或现在分词充当宾语补足语的复合宾语。
- sense作名词,词组come to one's senses可根据语境解释为“恢复理智”或“恢复知觉”。She has been behaving very foolishly.I hope she'll soon come to her senses. 她近来常做蠢事,我希望她赶紧恢复理智。She has been struck on the head by a rock and has lost consciousness.I hope she'll soon come to her senses. 由于她的头撞在石头上,失去了知觉。我希望她赶快恢复知觉。
- common sense指“常识”,与common knowledge和general knowledge不同。common sense指大多数人从经验中得来的常识,不需研究。common knowledge指在某个范围内大家都知道的事,受范围限制,不指所有人。general knowledge和common knowledge有时意思一样,但通常指从研究或注意得来的关于许多事物的基本知识,与 specialized knowledge意义相反;
- common sense只有在作形容词时才写成common-sense;
