  • 这组词(组)都有“发明”“发现”的意思。discover指发现或偶然发现原来就存在但一直未被认识的东西; look for作“寻找”解时,指寻找的动作和过程; find指寻找的结果,即“找到”,是非延续性动词,不如discover正式; find out指经过观察、调查把某事、某物查出来,搞清楚,弄明白,多用于复杂而不易直接查出的情况; invent指发明原来不存在的东西,有时也可指虚构、捏造。例如:

    • discover，find，detect，ascertain
  • 这些动词均有“发现”之意。
  • discover指发现本来已经存在，后被人认识的事物、真理或情况。
  • find普通用词，可指偶然发现，也可指经过寻找后得到或重新获得已失去的东西。强调动作的结果。
  • detect正式用词，强调经过周密观察或研究而有所获得和发现，尤指发现有意隐藏之物。
  • ascertain较正式用词，指有意搜寻与发现。
