词义辨析

v. (动词)

fade, disappear, vanish

• 这组词都有“消失”的意思。其区别在于:fade强调的是逐渐消失的过程; disappear一般指具体、有形的东西、事物突然或逐渐地“不见”,强调的是“看不见了”“不再存在了”的结果; vanish强调的是消失的彻底性,即“化为乌有”,往往带有一定的神秘色彩,在表达人或物消失了、看不见了时, disappear和vanish可以互换。

vanish，disappear，fade，evaporate

• 这些动词均有“消失”之意。
• vanish语气强，指完全、往往是神秘而突然的消失，不留任何蛛丝马迹。
• disappear普通用词，强调从视线或脑海中消失。这消失可能是暂时的、突然的或永久的，视上下文而定。
• fade侧重逐渐消失。
• evaporate指像水蒸发时那样悄然逝去，也指某人悄悄地、突然退出或离去。
