词语用法

词义讲解

词源解说

v.(动词)

observe的基本意思是对某人由于其国籍、信仰或职位所作出的建议性、命令性的事情或行为表示关注或尊重,即“看到”“注意到”“观察”“研究”,引申可指“评述”“论述”。observe也可作“遵循”“遵守”解,指谨小慎微、拘泥于礼仪或对某人怀有尊敬或崇拜的感情。observe还可用于表示(按传统习惯)“庆祝”“纪念”。

observe既可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词。用作及物动词时,可接名词、代词、由that或疑问词引导的从句作宾语,还可接以现在分词或不带to的动词不定式充当补足语的复合宾语,可用于被动结构。observe有时还可用来引出直接引语。

observe用作不及物动词时,常与介词on〔upon〕连用。

v.(动词)

observe, note, notice, perceive

这组词都有“注意”“观察”的意思。其区别是：

perceive指使用各种感觉器官去了解事物; notice指观察并注意到某个重要却又很容易被忽略掉的细节; note比notice意味更强烈,指不但注意到,而且记录下来,但有时只指思想上注意到并记在脑中; observe指在方便有利的位置上注意观察、研究某事物或现象,强调思想高度集中,态度严谨客观,但此词多用于科研方面。

☆ 14世纪晚期进入英语，直接源自古法语的observer；*初源自拉丁语的observare：ob (过，过于） + servare (观注，保持安全），意为保卫，保护。
