用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. magnify的基本意思是“放大”“扩大”,通常指借助于媒介物(如光学装置)作用于人的视觉而使某物扩大(面积和体积)。强调影响人的判断力。在英语俚语中, magnify表示“虚夸”,多指夸大事物的重要性,危险性及严重程度。
  2. magnify既可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词,用作及物动词时,接名词或代词作宾语。
v. (动词)
magnify, amplify, augment, enlarge, increase
  • 这组词的共同意思是“扩大,延伸”。其区别是:
  • enlarge指面积与范围的扩大,不能用以指重量、速度、时间的增大; increase可指距离、面积、力量、程度的增大,还可指数量、信心等增大和事物强度的加大,特别常用于统计方面; augment属于庄重用语,很少用来说明房屋、土地等物质的东西,通常用来表示势力、权势、财产、幸福、刑罚等增加或扩大; amplify是正式用语,在科技方面常指声音的扩大或电磁波的增强,也可指资料内容的增加; magnify指不从实际上,仅从外观上扩大某物,在俚语中, magnify有夸大事实、虚夸之义。例如:
  • His strength will increase when his health improves.他的健康好转后,体力也会增加的。
  • When sound is amplified, it can be heard a greater distance.声音一放大,可能传得更远。
  • He augments his wages by working in his free time.他在空闲时间加班以增加工资。
  • I want to enlarge the lawn.我要扩大草坪的面积。
  • He often magnifies himself against others.他常用抬高自己贬低对方的方法反对别人。
  • magnify, exaggerate
  • 这组词都有“夸大,夸张”的意思。它们的区别是:
  • exaggerate多指“夸大”,带有强烈的“过火”意味,后常接较抽象的名词; magnify常表示“扩大”“放大”,后接意义比较具体的名词。试比较以下两个句子:
  • He often exaggerates the facts.
  • 他老是夸大事实。
  • We magnify objects with a microscope.
  • 我们用显微镜来放大物体。
  • 用作动词 (v.)
    magnify to (v.+prep.)
      夸大到… exaggerate sth to certain degree
      magnify sth to sth

      A simple mistake in judgement was often magnified to the proportions of a major crime.

      在审判时,小的过失常常被夸大到滔天大罪。

    用作动词 (v.)
    ~+名词 ~+副词 ~+介词
