expensive的詳細講解:

詞語用法

adj. (形容詞)
  1. expensive的基本意思是“昂貴的,費用大的”,指花費的時間多、金額高或精力大。在用于價格時,含有超過應有價值或超出購物者的購買能力的意味。
  2. expensive常用于修飾物,有時也可用于修飾人,此時多強調一個人的“衣著華麗”。

詞義辨析

adj. (形容詞)
expensive, costly, dear
  • 這組詞的共同意思是“高貴的”或“昂貴的”。其區別在于:dear指本身并不見得貴,但與同類物品的價格相比而顯得“貴”; expensive指雖物有所值,但超出購買者支付能力的“貴”; costly則指物體本身“貴重”,因而價格“昂貴”,常引申指耗費的物質或精力很大。例如:
  • In the middle of the summer, fresh oranges are dear, but in the winter months they are cheap.仲夏時節的鮮桔很貴,但在冬季的幾個月里卻很便宜。
  • We indulged in an expensive supper after the concert.音樂會后我們盡情地享受了一頓昂貴的晚餐。
  • Selling your house can be a costly and time-consuming business.出售你的房子很可能是費錢耗時的事。
  • dear,expensive,costly
  • 這些形容詞都表示物品價格“高的,昂貴的”之意。
  • dear側重指要價過高,或遠高于公道、合理的價格,其反義詞是cheap。
  • expensive指物品的價格超過了它本身所值,或超過了購買者的支付能力。
  • costly指物品價格高,通常是因物品稀少或珍貴所致。
  • 常見錯誤

      The price of this suit of clothes is too expensive.

      The price of this suit of clothes is too high.

      我在集郵簿里收藏了許多貴重的郵票。

      In my stamp album I have many highly-costed stamps.

      In my stamp album I have many expensive stamps.

      highly-costed意為“成本高”, expensive才是“有價值的,貴重的”的意思。
