我的单词笔记-纯洁版-缓慢整理中[201512]
本帖最后由 Oeasy 于 2015-12-27 23:16 编辑+暂停每日更新,等有阶段性成果再发布+
很久以前,为了记单词,写了很多黄暴例句。
近来由于一些原因,准备弄个纯洁版的小词典,帮助下一代花朵记单词。
其实就是单词笔记,对着生单词开脑洞,情景记忆。
发个贴子,有空就更新一/几条,算是自娱自乐,也欢迎大家补充。

看起来很像绕口令。 O大词汇量应该可以和native speaker相比了
O大这些笔记是新单词的学习笔记还是温故呢?
希望O大能开专贴传授背单词经验。{:4_97:} Snowdax 发表于 2015-12-15 18:13

温故而知新啊。发帖是自娱自乐。
比如我一直不知道 employ 其实还有 use / occupy 的意思。
背单词啊,无非是多花时间罢了。有几点经验,倒是可以用下面的关键词来概括,也没啥新鲜的,以后有时间可以展开下。
[*]attention
[*]repetition
[*]exaggeration
[*]association
[*]question
[*]illustration
[*]section
{:4_109:} 这帖子成每日一词了。
eligible
The eligible candidates are eating edible giblets.
合格候选人在吃那啥。
这种gags的特色兩句子中的key words 对調, 並用上它們不同的解釋, 以期达到搞笑的效果(效果往往會"黃暴"--正如O大所言),
例如yarn 和 yawn.
上句的keywords 是snatch watches (小偷)搶手錶,
那下句自然是watch snatches(窥视者) 看xxx
snatch 还有什么解釋, 查一下朗文最后一項...
matte

马特的垫子无光。
staunch
The stone is staunch.
石头很忠诚嘛。

That kiddy is giddy.
那小子轻浮啊。
forage

wreak

板凳
