词语用法

n. (名词)

1. moon的意思是指围绕地球旋转的“月亮”“月球”。因为moon是地球唯一已知的天然卫星,它常与定冠词the连用,首字母小写。在科技文章中,为了醒目,常把moon的第一个字母大写。moon有时可用于比喻,表示“月状物”。
2. moon在表示月亮某时间出现等某种状态时,可与不定冠词连用,此时其前常有形容词修饰,作此解时常用单数。
3. 在文学语言中, moon也可用作复数,强调月亮不断地重复出现,衬托出人物内心情绪和思想状况。在诗歌中, moon可作“月”解。
4. moon引申作“月光”解时,要与定冠词the或little等词连用。
5. moon作“卫星”解时是可数名词。当指地球以外的其他行星的卫星时,可有复数形式。
6. 在有些成语中, moon常比喻为“可望而不可得的东西”。
