adj. (形容词)
dim, dark
  • dark与dim都有“黑暗”的意思,其区别是：
  • dark的意思是“黑暗的”,指黑暗无光,而dim的意思是“灰暗的”,表示由于光照不足所造成的昏暗状态,刚好达到看不清或分辨不清物体。修饰光线、灯光、阳光等只能用dim。例如:
  • With only the fire burning, the room was dim.只有火炉在燃烧,房里光线很暗。
  • He was reading a magazine under the dim light of a candle.他在微弱的烛光下看杂志。
    • dark，dim，black，gloomy，obscure，vague，grey
  • 这些形容词都含有“完全地或不完全地缺少光亮”之意。
  • dark最普通用词，指缺乏自然光线或人工照明，使某物漆黑无光或光线十分微弱。
  • dim指光线不足或视力较差，不能清晰地看见物体。
  • black侧重颜色是黑色的，有时也指无光的黑暗。
  • gloomy指光线不足或部分光线受阻而出现的阴暗。
  • obscure指因光线不充足而使物体灰暗不清，失去光泽或若隐若现。作借喻时指因复杂、深奥或含糊而难于理解。
  • vague通常作借喻用，形容抽象事物。
  • grey与dark意思相近，但侧重阴暗单调的意味。
    • vague，dim，indefinite，obscure，ambiguous，faint
  • 这些形容词均含“不明确的，模糊的”之意。
  • vague多指因语言不确切，太笼统或因构思含糊、不完善而造成模糊难解。
  • dim侧重指或因光线暗淡，或因年代久远、身体欠佳等因素而产生视觉或察觉方面的困难。
  • indefinite指无明确定义或限定，重点或总体轮廓不明确。
  • obscure语气最强，指晦涩难懂。
  • ambiguous指文章或讲话中，意思可能有多种理解，令人捉摸不定。
  • faint指对某事物印象不深，或指声音微弱或希望的渺茫等。
