用法讲解

adj. (形容词)
  1. cheap的基本意思是“低”,可指价格低廉,也可指质量低劣,还可指人品低下。作“价格低廉”解时是相对于其内在质量或一般水平而言,即“便宜”,而非绝对值的贱；作“品质低劣”解时含有“尽管价格低,但也不值”的意味；作“人品低下”解时指“低俗,卑鄙”,可用于人、言语或行为。
  2. cheap在句中可作定语、表语。cheap的比较级为cheaper,最高级为cheapest。
adj. (形容词)
cheap, inexpensive
  • 这两词均有“便宜的”意思。其区别是：
  • cheap有时可指价钱虽便宜,但质量不一定好; inexpensive则主要指质量不低于其价格,公认不贵,便宜。例如:
  • The car was inexpensive.那部汽车是便宜的。
    • 下面两个句子的意思不同:
  • Apples are the cheapest in autumn.
  • 在秋季，水果中苹果最便宜。
  • Apples are cheapest in autumn.
  • 苹果在秋季最便宜。
    • inexpensive，cheap
  • 这两个形容词均含“便宜的、价廉的”之意。
  • inexpensive指商品价格公道，数量和价格相当。
  • cheap普通用词，既可指物美价廉，又可指价格低但质量却不怎么样。
    • low，mean，cheap，shabby
  • 这些形容词均有“卑鄙的、卑贱的、卑下的”之意。
  • low指行为卑鄙、可耻、不文明，可引申指庸俗。
  • mean指行为卑鄙，自私，为人们所不齿。
  • cheap侧重指人或物的品质低劣，下贱。
  • shabby指行为的不公和卑劣而使人感到不屑和轻蔑。

    • 常见错误

    adj. (形容词)
      这顶帽子很便宜。

      误 The price of the hat is cheap.

      正 The price of the hat is low.

      正 The hat is cheap.

      因为价格便宜,所以我把它买下了。

      误 I bought it because the price was cheap.

      正 I bought it because the price was low.

      析 cheap是对“商品”而言的,而不是对“价格”而言。说“价格低廉”，应用low。
