cosplay 足交 双语早读|齐是礼物,gift和present有什么分裂?
在英语中cosplay 足交,偶而分把礼物称为gift,偶而则称为present,这两个单词咱们齐不目生,但你知谈两者之间有什么分裂吗?
Gift和present起首于不同语系。Gift来自古日耳曼语,是“予以”的情理。原本指代“给”这个行为,自后就演变为“所给的东西”。在古英语中,Gift指的是给新娘父母的彩礼。而present起首于法语,情理是“递交、献上、维持”的情理。A present便是所维持或授予的东西。从13世纪驱动,这两个词齐默示的是,在不条款付款的前提下,一件东西的统共权发生了辗转。
The words come to us from different language families. Gift comes from the old Germanic root for “to give.” It referred to an act of giving, and then, to the thing being given. In Old English it meant the dowry given to a bride’s parents. Present comes from the French for "to present." A present is the thing presented or bestowed. They were both in use for the idea of something undergoing a transfer of possession without expectation of payment from the 13th century onward.
在如今,gift和present是近义词,本色上抒发的齐是合并个东西,可是即使情理再邻近的近义词,依然会有不同的词义和用法。
The words gift and present are well-matched synonyms that mean essentially the same thing, but even well-matched synonyms have their own connotations and distinctive patterns of use.
Gift的用法更平庸,它不错指天禀,比如说你生下来就能说会谈(have the gift of gab),或者有音乐天禀(musical gift)。Gift不错指代无形的事物,譬如说你的意会智力很好(gift of understanding),或者概况渡过安心好意思好的一天,确实上天的恩赐啊(gift of a quiet day)。
Gift applies to a wider range of situations. Gifts can be talents. You can have the gift of gab, or a musical gift. Gifts can be intangibles. There is the gift of understanding or the gift of a quiet day.
Present平常不这样用。 Present所抒发的情理更具化。假如在你诞辰的时分,你们全家出钱承担你的大学膏火,这个时分你会说“我收到了很多present”吗?听起来也没什么问题,但既然这些“礼物”不是切切实实拿在手里的,用gift就更妥当少许。
We generally don’t use present for things like this. Presents are more concrete. If your whole family gave donations to your college fund for your birthday would you say “I got a lot of presents”? It doesn’t exactly sound wrong, but since you never hold these donations in your hand, gifts seem to fit better.
Gift还不错作定语名词,去修饰另一个名词。你会把礼品店称作什么?A gift shop。给职工装礼物的篮子叫什么呢?A gift basket。Present则不不错这样去修饰另一个名词。咱们频频说的gift boxes(礼品盒),gift cards(礼品卡),和gift wrap(礼品包装),可是不行把它们说成present boxes,present cards,和present wrap。
Gift can also be an attributive noun, acting like an adjective to modify another noun. What do you call the type of shop where you can buy presents for people? A gift shop. What do you call the basket of presents that you can have sent to all your employees? A gift basket. Present doesn’t work well in this role of describing other nouns. We have gift boxes, gift cards, and gift wrap, not present boxes, present cards, and present wrap.
Gift的使用比present要频繁,不外要对此进行精准的计数相比难,因为当咱们在相比名词gift和名词present出现的频率时,会把present看成“当下”的情理也给算进去了。不外,present的复数模式presents就惟有礼物的情理了。好意思国现代英语语料库对此的斟酌发现,gift的使用频率远超present,比例达4:1。
Gift appears to be more frequent than present, though it is difficult to get accurate counts, because if you compare occurrences of the noun present with the noun gift, you include that other noun present, meaning the here and now. However, the plural noun presents captures only the word we want. Gifts outnumbers presents in the Corpus of Contemporary American English by four to one.
