词义辨析

n. (名词)

misgivings, apprehension, foreboding

• 这组词都含有担心某事出差头或预感某事将要出错的意思，其区别是：
• 1.misgivings侧重疑虑和不安；apprehension通常指烦扰某人使其害怕、恐慌；而foreboding则指一种不祥的预感，尤其是迷信的、无道理的或模糊的担忧感。例如：
• She had serious misgivings about the whole affair, but they proved unfounded.她对整个这件事疑虑重重，结果证明她的担心是毫无根据的。
• They are under great apprehensions. 他们大为恐慌。
• She had a foreboding that she'd never see him again.她预感她永远不会再见到他了。
• 2.misgivings和apprehension的忧虑感可以得到解除,而 foreboding的忧虑感却很难解除。
