N·H·克莱伯姆:不要使用very这个词,因为用它就是偷懒。用morose代替very sad。语言的作用只有一个,小子们,就是用来哄女孩的。如果偷懒的话,怎么哄得到!
very good, very beautiful, very... 每次表达强烈语气时,还在使用very?作家们发话了,very这个词是词汇匮乏和懒惰的表现!小编为你整理45个“高大上”单词,下次说英语时不要总说very啦!
作家们是这样吐槽very的:
Mark Twain:Substitute ‘damn’ every time you’re inclined to write ‘very;’ your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be。马克·吐温:每次想要用very的时候就用damn代替吧;你的编辑会直接帮你删掉它,这样文章才是它该有的样子。
Florence King: 'Very' is the most useless word in the English language and can always come out. More than useless, it is treacherous because it invariably weakens what it is intended to strengthen。弗罗伦斯·金:very是英文中最没用的单词,但又总是会出现。比起无用,它简直就是个隐患,因为它总会削弱你想强调的那个词。
N.H. Kleinbaum:So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do.N·H·克莱伯姆:不要使用very这个词,因为用它就是偷懒。用morose代替very sad。语言的作用只有一个,小子们,就是用来哄女孩的。如果偷懒的话,怎么哄得到!
