用法讲解

adj. (形容词)
  1. slender可作“修长的,苗条的”解,用于女士指身段胖瘦相宜,或体态苗条且优雅轻盈,用于男士指体态轻盈,常含称赞之意。
adj. (形容词)
slender, gaunt, lean, thin
  • 这组词都可形容人“瘦”。其区别是：
  • thin指因病、过分劳累或缺乏营养等而缺少正常的肌肉; gaunt指因饥饿或操劳过度而呈现的枯瘦或憔悴的面庞; lean强调缺乏脂肪,指自然的瘦,其肌肉却很结实; slender可指人或动物,作“细长的,苗条的”解,有时含有“纤弱”的意思。例如:
  • He has the gaunt face of a starving man.他是一副憔悴的面容的饿汉相。
  • The forest ranger is lean.那位森林警察很结实。
  • She admired Alice's slender build.她羡慕艾丽斯那苗条的身材。
    • lean，slender，slim，slight，thin
  • 这些形容词均有“瘦的”之意。
  • lean侧重缺少脂肪。既可能是因病而瘦，也可能因饥饿而消瘦；也指身体消瘦，但肌肉结实，身体健康。
  • slender指身体细长、体态优美、苗条适中，多用于指女性。
  • slim指身体的细长，体重轻不着重外形的优美，可用于不同的性别，常用于减轻体重的人。
  • slight指身材又瘦又小。
  • thin普通用词，指腰细、骨架窄，常因疾病或疲劳而消瘦。
    • 用作形容词 (adj.)
