v.|envisaged;面对(face的过去分词)
"faced"是英语中多功能的词汇,主要包含以下两种核心含义:
1. 动词过去式/过去分词(源自"face")
作为动词形态时,表示"面对、面临"的具体动作或状态,强调直面挑战或现实的过程。牛津词典将其定义为"be confronted with or have to deal with"(需要处理或应对某事)。例如:"The company faced financial difficulties during the pandemic"(公司在疫情期间面临财务困境)。剑桥词典补充说明该词常用于描述需要勇气应对的处境,如"faced with a difficult decision"(面对艰难抉择)。
2. 形容词(描述物体表面特征)
指物体表面覆盖特定材质的工艺特征,常见于建筑与纺织领域。根据《牛津英语词典》,其定义为"having a surface of a specified type"(具有特定材质的表面)。例如建筑学中的"marble-faced facade"(大理石饰面外墙),或纺织业术语"silk-faced wool"(丝质衬里的羊毛面料)。这种用法在《韦氏词典》中也被收录为专业术语,指材料通过层压、镀层等工艺形成的复合结构。
该词的语义演变可追溯至14世纪古法语词根"face",既保留着"直面"的动作概念,又发展出描述物体表面状态的静态特征。在实际应用中需结合上下文判断具体含义,如"faced the audience"(面向观众)强调动作,而"gold-faced watch"(镀金表盘)则指材质属性。
根据英语词汇知识,“faced”主要有以下含义和用法:
表示「面对」的物理或抽象动作:
物理朝向
The building faced the ocean, offering stunning views.
(建筑物面朝大海,景色壮丽)
应对挑战或问题

覆盖表面(常用于被动语态)

描述事物表面状态或人的面部特征:
