| 词汇 | brief |
| 词根词缀 | 词源： brief (adj.) 1292, from L. brevis (adj.) "short, low, little, shallow," from PIE *mregh-wi-, from base *mregh-u- "short" (cf. Gk. brakhys "short," O.C.S. bruzeja "shallow places, shoals"). Noun derivative breve (gen. brevis) meant "letter, summary" (specifically a letter of the pope, less ample and solemn than a bull), and came to mean "letter of authority," which yielded the modern, legal sense of "summary of the facts of a case" (1631). The verb meaning "to give instructions or information to" (1866) was originally "to instruct by a brief" (1862); hence briefing, first attested 1910 but popularized by WWII pre-flight conferences. 词根记忆： a. 简短的,简洁的v.简短介绍,简要汇报I believe my brief words will relieve her grief.我相信我简短的话会减轻她的悲痛. 简短的[brev,brief=short,表示"短,缩短"] 词根词缀： brief brief简短的 brev, bridg=short,表示”短,缩短”brevity短暂,简洁(brev+ity状态=短的状态=短暂,简短) brief简短的briefness短暂,简洁 |
