aloof(形容詞/副詞)表示“疏遠的、冷淡的”或“保持距離地”,常用于描述情感或行為上的疏離态度。該詞源自16世紀荷蘭語“loef”(意為“逆風航行”),後演變為航海術語“保持逆風位置以避開危險”,引申為“刻意保持距離”的社交含義(來源:Merriam-Webster)。
根據《柯林斯英語語法指南》,aloof與近義詞detached的區别在于:前者隱含主觀回避意圖,後者側重客觀中立(柯林斯詞典,https://www.collinsdictionary.com/)。
aloof 是一個多義詞,具體含義和用法如下:
發音:英式 /əˈluːf/,美式 /əˈluf/
提示:該詞常隱含因優越感、羞怯或蔑視而主動保持距離的意味,需結合語境理解。
