“deafen”的詳細解釋
“deafen”是動詞,音标為/ˈdefn/,源自中古英語“defenen”,意為“使聾”或“使聽不見”。其核心含義指通過強烈的聲音或持續噪音導緻暫時或永久性聽力損傷。例如:“The explosion deafened him temporarily.”(爆炸聲讓他暫時失聰)。
在引申語境中,“deafen”可描述聲音大到令人不適或無法忽視的狀态,如“The deafening roar of the crowd overwhelmed the stadium.”(人群震耳欲聾的歡呼聲淹沒了整個體育場)。該詞常見搭配包括“deafening noise”(震耳欲聾的噪音)和“deafen the ears”(震耳欲聾),多用于形容機械轟鳴、自然現象或人為聲響。
語言學上,“deafen”還構成短語“deafening silence”,比喻因沉默或信息缺失引發的強烈不安感。例如:“Her refusal to answer created a deafening silence.”(她的拒不回答制造了令人窒息的沉默)。
