focuses
基本解釋
- n. 重點(focus的複數(shù));焦點
- v. 集中(focus的三單形式);使聚焦;調(diào)節(jié)焦距
詞源解說
- 17世紀40年代進入英語,直接源自古典拉丁語的focus,意爲爐牀,壁爐。
用法辨析
- focus用作名詞時原始意義是“火爐”,引申爲“焦點”,轉(zhuǎn)化爲動詞則爲“(使)聚焦”,“(使)集中”。即“調(diào)整…的焦點或焦距以便看清”,引申則表示“使(注意力等)集中於某物”。
- focus用作及物動詞時,可以接望遠鏡、焦點等作賓語,也可以接陽光等作賓語,還可以接目光等作賓語。focus用於比喻作“致力於”解時,則可以接mind, attention等作賓語。
- focus也用作不及物動詞,這時常和介詞on連用,表示“聚焦於…”“致力於…”等。
- focus on sth表示“集中於某事”;
- focus作“中心,焦點”的解釋時,用詞範圍很廣,常被濫用,需注意。
v. (動詞)
