词语用法

词义讲解

词源解说

n.(名词)

chain的基本意思是“链子,链条”,是可数名词,由其环环相扣的形状而引申为“一系列,一连串”“连锁店”,由其“锁链”的作用而引申可表示“束缚”。

chain作“束缚”解时,常用复数。

v.(动词)

chain的基本意思是“用链条拴〔锁〕住”,引申则可表示“束缚”。

chain是及物动词,接名词或代词作宾语,可用于被动结构。

n.(名词)

a chain of, a series of

这二者都有“一连串”的意思,但意义有所不同。a series of只表示数量,而a chain of含“前因后果”的意味。例如:

It awakens a series of associations of ideas.

它唤起一系列的联想。

Their acts set off a chain of revolts through- out the country.

他们的行为在全国引发了一系列叛乱。
