adj. (形容词)
small, little, tiny
  • 这组词的共同意思是“小”。其区别是:
  • little和small在修饰物时,前者着重数量不多、少; 后者侧重于程度和尺寸的大小。little和small用来修饰人时,前者侧重于因年龄小而使身形娇小,后者则侧重于指比一般人身材矮小,含有比较的意味。另外, little还含有一种small所没有的感情色彩,往往含有“小得可爱”“小得可怜”等意思。tiny比little和small更强调小,含有“微不足道”的意思。例如:
  • There is little gasoline left in the tank.油箱里没有多少汽油了。
  • The boy is small for his age.这男孩身材小得同年龄不相称。
  • He lived in a tiny cottage all by himself.他一人住在一间很小的茅屋里。
  • little,small,tiny,minute,miniature
  • 这些形容词均有“小的”之意。
  • little指在体积、数量、距离、年龄、身材等方面比正常的小,多带主观感情色彩,含小而可爱或小巧的意味。
  • small多指数量、面积、体积、价值、数字或意义等的小或少,指略小于正常的大小。
  • tiny强调与同类或其他物体比较,小得超出正常比例,有时带强烈的感情色彩。
  • minute指小得难看见,有时需用显微镜才看得见。
  • miniature指由正常体积微缩的物体。
