courteous的详细讲解:

adj. (形容词)
courteous, civil, polite
  • 这组词的共同意思是“有礼貌的”。其区别在于:
  • 1.polite指教养良好而举止谈吐彬彬有礼。
  • 2.civil指仅仅满足社会交往的一般要求,有时仅指不粗野。例如:
  • Be civil in your speech.讲话要客气。
  • He was very civil to us when we went to see him.我们去见他的时候,他待我们非常客气。
  • 3.courteous则指考虑更为周到,举止更为高雅。例如:
  • She was pleased at the courteous way in which he addressed her.他跟她讲话时的那种谦恭的样子令她十分愉快。
  • It was courteous of him to give his seat to my mother.他把座位让给我母亲真有礼貌。
  • polite,civil,courteous
  • 这些形容词均含“礼貌的、客气的”之意。
  • polite普通常用词,指言论举止无论何时均严谨有礼,很有教养。
  • civil语气弱于polite,着重只达到社交的一般要求,避免粗鲁。
  • courteous指言谈举止典雅,谦恭有礼,更侧重考虑他人的感情与尊严。
