aloof(形容词/副词)表示“疏远的、冷淡的”或“保持距离地”,常用于描述情感或行为上的疏离态度。该词源自16世纪荷兰语“loef”(意为“逆风航行”),后演变为航海术语“保持逆风位置以避开危险”,引申为“刻意保持距离”的社交含义(来源:Merriam-Webster)。
根据《柯林斯英语语法指南》,aloof与近义词detached的区别在于:前者隐含主观回避意图,后者侧重客观中立(柯林斯词典,https://www.collinsdictionary.com/)。
aloof 是一个多义词,具体含义和用法如下:
发音:英式 /əˈluːf/,美式 /əˈluf/
提示:该词常隐含因优越感、羞怯或蔑视而主动保持距离的意味,需结合语境理解。
