词汇 | comedy |
词根词缀 | 词源: late 14c., from O.Fr. comedie, from L. comoedia, from Gk. komoidia "a comedy, amusing spectacle," from komodios "singer in the revels," from komos "revel, carousal" + oidos "singer, poet," from aeidein "to sing." The classical sense is similar to the modern one, but in the Middle Ages the word came to mean poems and stories generally (albeit ones with happy endings), and the earliest Eng. sense is "narrative poem" (cf. Dante's "Commedia"). Comedy aims at entertaining by the fidelity with which it presents life as we know it; farce at raising laughter by the outrageous absurdity of the situation or characters exhibited; extravaganza at diverting by its fantastic nature; burlesque at tickling the fancy of the audience by caricaturing plays or actors with whose style it is familiar. Generalized sense of "quality of being amusing" dates from 1877. 词根记忆: n. 喜剧;喜剧性事件One of his new comedies is to be on TV soon.他的一个新喜剧即将上演. n. 喜剧(com+edy表名词→像宴会一样热闹→喜剧)[com=banquet,表示"宴会"] 词根词缀: comedy comedy n 喜剧(com+edy表名词=像宴会一样热闹=喜剧) com=banquet,表示”宴会” comedy n 喜剧(com+edy表名词=像宴会一样热闹=喜剧) comic a 好笑的(由喜剧而来) encomiun n 高度赞扬(en进入+com+ium=开宴会庆祝=高度赞扬) |
