  • 词义辨析

    envy, admire

    这两个词都可译为“羡慕”,但含义并不相同:envy不仅含有“羡慕别人所拥有的东西或品质”的意思,而且进一步有“我也要拥有”的含义。例如:
    真羡慕你!我多希望能有那么一头卷发!
    [误] How I admire you!I wish I could make my hair curl like that.
    [正] How I envy you! I wish I could make my hair curl like that.
    本句所羡慕的只是那一头卷发,并不见得钦佩那个有一头卷发的人,而且明确表示“希望能有”,故用envy。
