词义辨析

• hide是这组词中含义最广泛的词,既可指故意的隐藏,也可指无意中偶然的隐藏,有时还指客观上某物被另一物所掩盖; conceal强调故意将事物隐藏起来,不使他人知道; dissemble和cover指用言语或行动来隐藏或掩饰真正的感情、思想、意向、计划等, cover有蒙混过关或不被人发觉的意味; 而dissemble指可以令人产生一种错觉。例如:
• The trees concealed me from view.
• 那些树把我遮住,别人看不见。
• He was thinking the enemy must have hidden themselves somewhere.
• 他在想敌人一定藏在什么地方。
