📚 中文意思

4. gaunt(憔悴消瘦)

💡 顾老师提示:"瘦弱"在不同语境下有不同的英文表达,thin最通用,lean偏正面,gaunt则带有病态感。

🔊 发音指导

thin/θɪn/ [θɪn]

lean/liːn/ [liːn]

slender/ˈslendə(r)/ [ˈslendər]

gaunt/ɡɔːnt/ [ɡɔːnt]

发音要点:

  • thin注意咬舌音/θ/
  • lean是长元音/iː/
  • slender重音在第一音节
  • gaunt的/au/类似"高"的韵母

中文谐音参考:

thin:辛(咬舌)

lean:林(长音)

slender:斯兰德尔

gaunt:高恩特

💡 顾老师纠音:常见错误:

  • 把thin读成/sɪn/(正确要咬舌)
  • slender重音错放在第二音节
  • gaunt读成/gɑːnt/(正确是/ɔː/)

🎯 用法对比

1. thin vs. slender → thin中性,slender褒义

She's thin (中性) vs. She's slender (优雅)

2. lean vs. gaunt → lean健康,gaunt病态

a lean runner (健康) vs. a gaunt patient (病态)

3. 固定搭配

as thin as a rake (骨瘦如柴)
lean meat (瘦肉)
slender waist (细腰)

语法注意:

  • 比较级:thinner, leaner, more slender
  • 最高级:thinnest, leanest, most slender
  • gaunt通常不做比较级
