Four words that often confuse learners of English are dead, death, die and died.
英语学习者经常会混淆四个单词:dead, death, die and died.
比较:
• My cat is dead. 我的猫咪死了。
• It died yesterday. 它是昨天死的。
• Its death was a surprise. 它的死是个意外。
这三个词的区别很简单:
Dead is an Adjective (a descriptive word) Dead是个形容词(描述性词语) Death is a Noun (a naming word) Death是名词(命名词) Die is a Verb (an action word) Die是动词(动作词) Died is the past tense of the verb Die Died是动词Die的过去式。 Look at the following explanations containing a lot more details and examples. We have also included popular idiomatic expressions for each one.
看一下下面的解释,其中包括了更多的细节和例子,以及每个词常用的习惯用语。
Dead = Adjective Dead:形容词 We use the word dead to describe the lifeless state of something; it is the opposite of alive. 我们用dead这次个来描述没有了生命某物;与alive的意思相反。
• I forgot to water my plants and now they are dead 我忘记给植物浇水了,现在它们都死了。 = they were alive and now they are without life 它们之前还活着,现在却死了
• A dead planet 了无生气的星球 = a planet with no life on it 这个星球上没有生命 We can use dead in an informal way to describe a boring place with not many people or much activity 我们可以用dead描述一个无聊的地方,没有太多人或活动。
• The bar was dead 这个酒吧死气沉沉。 = there was nobody (or very few people) at the bar 酒吧里没人(或人很少)
1:To go dead means to loose feeling in the part of the body due to temporary lack of circulation To go dead的意思是因为暂时缺少流通,身体的一部分没了知觉。 • My leg went dead after sitting on the floor for three hours 在地上坐了3个小时,我的腿没知觉了。 = My leg was numb, I couldn't feel it. 我的腿麻木了,没知觉了。
2:To be + dead + adjective (e.g. dead boring) is a slightly outdated British slang for 'completely' or 'totally' To be + dead + adjective (e.g. dead boring)是一个稍微过时的英国俚语,意思是“完全” 。 The test was dead easy 这个测试特别简单。
3:Dead calm or dead silence means total/complete calm/silence, as if there was no life in an area Dead calm 或 dead silence的意思是完全平静/安静,就像这里空无一人。 After the storm there was dead calm 暴风雨过后风平浪静。 I wouldn't be caught dead… (there/wearing that/doing that etc) = To refuse to and affirm that you would never do something 拒绝并确定你永远不会做某事 To stop dead in your tracks = To stop suddenly or abruptly 突然停止 Dead as a doornail = Something that is completely/obviously/certainly dead 完全(或肯定、确实无疑地)死了的 In the dead of winter/night = In the middle of winter/night 冬季中期/半夜 Death = Noun
Death:名词 The concept or idea of the state after life. Death is the opposite of life. Death的意思是没有生命的状态,是life的反义词。
• Death comes to us all. 我们每个人都会经历死亡。 = The state of being dead is inevitable 死亡是不可避免的。
• Death scares some people 一些人害怕死亡 = The idea of dying scares some people 死亡是一些人感到害怕
To be on death's door = To be very close to dying. Here death is personified. 离死亡非常近,这里的death被拟人化了。 You'll catch your death outside! = An expression used to warn people about how cold the weather is outside. "You'll catch a cold, or worse!" 警告人们外面的天气是多么寒冷,可能会感冒,或得更严重的病。 To do something to death = To do something over and over again until it is no longer popular. They've played that song to death on the radio! 反复做某事,直到不再流行。 A matter of life and death = A usually figurative way if saying something's extremely important 用比喻的手法表示某物特别重要。 Die = Verb
Die:动词
The event (action) of death. The opposite of to be born 表示死亡这个动作,反义词是to be born The past of die is died. Die的过去式是died.
• Michael Jackson died in 2009 迈克尔·杰克逊于2009年去世。
• My plants have died from thirst 我很长时间没给植物浇水了,它们缺水而死。
To be dying to do something = to be desperate to do something e.g. "I'm dying to go on holiday" 渴望做某事 To be dying of something = literal or figurative, e.g. "I'm dying of hunger/heat" 比喻义。例如:我要饿死了/渴死了。 Never say die = never surrender/give up 不要放弃。
