词语用法

v. (动词)

1. pine的基本意思是“消瘦,憔悴”。引申可作“渴望,羡慕”解,指因渴望而苦恼,或由于徒劳的朝思暮想而造成身体衰弱或对身体造成损害。
2. pine是不及物动词,后常接介词for或动词不定式。

词义辨析

v. (动词)

pine, long, yearn

• 这组词的共同意思是“渴望”。其区别在于:
• 1.pine暗示苦苦思念不可能得到的事物; long暗示有强烈的愿望并付诸努力; yearn则暗示不安地或痛苦地渴望做到某事或得到某物。
• 2.long和yearn后均可跟for短语或不定式,但long是一般用语,用于褒义或贬义均可;而yearn则通常用于高尚的感情或用于诗歌中。例如:
• My brother yearned to return to his native land.我哥哥渴望回故乡。

词源解说

• ☆ 直接源自古英语的pin；最初源自拉丁语的pinus，意为松树。
