外刊例句

But veterans and novices alike face the same visibility problem. Working out how much money is channelled into private equity, how much it makes and whether the adventure is worth it is fiendishly tricky.

但是老手和新手都面临同样的能见度问题。计算有多少钱流入了私人股权、赚了多少钱,以及这样的冒险是否值得,这都是极其复杂的。

——《经济学人》

基本释义

novice:A novice is someone who has been doing a job or other activity for only a short time and so is not experienced at it.

n. 新手;初学者

追根溯源

单词novice里的词根nov来自拉丁语novus,表示“新的”,所以,在英语里包含nov的单词,多与此相关。例如:

novel /ˈnɒvl/ adj. 新奇的;n. 小说

innovation /ˌɪnəˈveɪʃn/ n. 创新;革新

renovate /ˈrenəveɪt/ v. 更新;修复

nova /ˈnəʊvə/ n. 新星

后缀ice表示名词,所以,nov ice=新的人→新人,初学者
