  • 词义辨析

    overthrow, subvert

    这组词的共同含义是“推翻”。它们的区别是:
    overthrow强调用力量、暴力等手段彻底“打败,推翻,摧毁”某物; 而subvert则指用破坏支柱、削弱基础等手段“颠覆”有实际价值的东西,常含有“破坏,腐蚀”的意思。

    conquer,overcome,overthrow,defeat,beat,subdue

    这些动词都含“征服,战胜”之意。
    conquer侧重战胜和控制。书面用词。
    overcome多指战胜或克服非物质的东西,如困难和不良习惯等。语气较弱也可指在斗争或竞争中战胜或压倒对方。
    overthrow指彻底击败对手,使其丧失力量和地位。
    defeat普通用词,多指在战争、比赛、竞选或辩论中战胜对手,侧重胜利的暂时性。
    beat口笔语都可用,可与defeat换用。
    subdue正式用词,与conquer同义,但强调失败后的臣服状态;也可用作借喻,表克制、压抑感情、欲望等。
