adj. (形容词)
empty, blank
  • 这两个词均可指“空白”，但blank指的是表面空白无物，而empty指的却是里面什么也没有。
    • empty, vacant, void
  • 这组词的共同意思是“空的”。其区别在于:
  • 1.empty强调什么也没有,而vacant则强调没人占用。一个房间如果没有人住,那是vacant; 如果连家具也没有,那就是empty。
  • 2.void和vacant意思相近,均表示“没有的”。void常用于法律,表示“无效的”。例如:
  • My father used to gaze into the vacant space.我父亲从前经常凝视那茫茫的太空。
  • The desert stretching away before the traveller seemed frighteningly void.展现在这位旅行者眼前一望无际的大沙漠空旷得令人生畏。
  • The agreement, not having been signed, was void.这份协议没有签字,是无效的。
  • 3.empty喻指没有意义、没有价值和内容; vacant喻指空缺或空虚麻木; void喻指因缺乏内容而变得空洞。例如:
  • We hate people indulging in empty talk.我们讨厌人们一味空谈。
  • He looks rather vacant.他看上去似乎心不在焉。
  • His style is void of affectation.他的文体没有矫揉造作。
  • 4.empty是普通用语,而vacant是较正式用语, vacant的应用范围不如empty广泛。
    • empty，vacant，hollow
  • 这一组词都表示“空的”，但涵义有所不同。
  • empty意思是“里面没有东西”、“一无所有”，具有“空无一物”的隐含意义，它可以用来描绘box、vessel、cupboard、bag、purse、room、house、street、stomach、head 等词。
  • vacant意思是“闲着的”、“无人占据的”，着重指临时性的情况，如：vacant seat、vacant apartment、vacant position等。
  • hollow意思是“空心的”、“中空的”、“空洞的”、“下陷的”，它常与tree、ball、cheeks、voice、sound、words、promise等词连用，由此可见，它既可用以指实物的“中空”，亦可指 words、promise、compliments的“虚假”，用于后者场合是比喻意义。
