n.|consideration/matter/what it is;原因
“causes”是英语中具有多重含义的高频词汇,其核心概念围绕“原因”与“因果关系”展开。以下从语言学、哲学及实际应用三个维度进行解释:
1. 语言学定义
作为名词时,“causes”指导致事件发生或现象存在的直接或间接因素,例如:“Smoking is one of the leading causes of lung cancer”(吸烟是肺癌的主要诱因之一)。作为动词时,表示引发特定结果的行为,如:“The earthquake caused widespread damage”(地震造成大面积破坏)。
2. 哲学范畴
在亚里士多德的“四因说”中,“causes”被细分为质料因、形式因、动力因与目的因,这一分类至今仍影响科学方法论。现代哲学则强调因果关系中的必要性与充分性条件,例如休谟对因果链的质疑。
3. 跨学科应用
该词的复杂性体现在其既可描述客观机制(如病毒引发疾病),也能用于主观归因(如历史事件的多重诱因)。使用时需结合语境区分“根本原因”(root cause)与“触发因素”(triggering factor)的层次差异。
“causes” 是单词cause 的复数形式或第三人称单数形式,具体含义需结合语境:
