incense, anger, enrage, madden
  • 这四个词的共同意思是“(使)愤怒”。它们之间的区别是:
  • 1.从“(使)愤怒”的程度上说:anger表示的是各种程度的“怒”; enrage和incense则到了发火的程度,即“大怒”; madden语气最强,即“狂怒”。
  • 2.从“(使)愤怒”的原因上说:anger最普通,可以是当怒的,也可以是不当怒的; incense指被过分的事物所激怒; enrage指被逗弄等所激怒; madden则主要指受到侮辱而发怒。
  • 3.从表现上说:anger的怒可外露,也可隐藏于心中; 其余几个词则多有明显的外部表现。例如:
  • Her words angered him very much.她的话使他生气极了。
  • He was incensed by her casual attitude to his mother's death.见到她对他母亲的去世那么漫不经心,他气坏了。
  • The child's teasing enraged the animal.那孩子把那头动物逗得大怒。
  • He maddened at the thought of how he had been betrayed.他一想起自己被出卖的情形就勃然大怒。
