alone与lone的区别
Alone vs Lonely,这是一对容易混淆的英语近义词,今天就分析一下二者的不同。先看一下 Collins字典的解释。
alone,那份淡淡的独处感
Alone有形容词和副词两种形式,我们只列出形容词
1. When you are alone, you are not with any other people.
2. If you say that you are alone or feel alone, you mean that nobody who is with you, or nobody at all, cares about you.
3. If one person is alone with another person, or if two or more people are alone, they are together, without anyone else present.
Alone的主要含义有三:1)一个人独处 2)感觉孤单,体会到“无人关系,无人相处”的孤独感3)固定句型be/get alone with someone 表示与someone独处。
第一种含义稍显消极,表明“再无他人”,例句
There is nothing so fearful as to be alone in a combat situation. 没有比独自一人处于战斗环境中更可怕的事了。
第二种含义表消极,感觉“很孤单,没人陪”,例句:
Never in her life had she felt so alone, so abandoned. 她一辈子从没有感到过如此孤独、如此被抛弃。
第三种含义为固定用法,be/get alone with someone,意为“与someone独处”。例句:
I couldn't imagine why he would want to be alone with me. 我想象不出他为什么想要和我独处。
Lonely只有形容词型式
lonely 深深的孤单感
1. Someone who is lonely is unhappy because they are alone or do not have anyone they can talk to.
2. A lonely situation or period of time is one in which you feel unhappy because you are alone or do not have anyone to talk to.
Lonely的意思很单纯,如果用来形容人,就是感觉寂寞孤独;如果用来形容时期或者情况,就是“坐冷板凳”;如果用来形容地方,就是偏僻不毛。这三种含义都是消极负面的。例句
1. lonely people who just want to talk. …只想聊聊天的孤独的人。
2. I desperately needed something to occupy me during those long, lonely nights. 在那些漫长而又孤独的夜晚我拼命想找点事做。
3. It felt like the loneliest place in the world. 这就像是世界上最偏僻的地方。
此外还有两件事需要说明,
1. Be/get alone with someone (与某人独处),不要与get along with someone (与某人交好)混淆。川普在竞选演讲时常常使用get along with someone,来显示他团结朋友的能力。
2. 我问过老外一个问题:he sat alone 和 he sat all alone有何区别?对方的回答:All is just an emphasizer here, in my opinion. It's makes alone even more alone.
