  • colour作“脸色”“气色”“血色”解时,常能反映出一个人的健康状态,只用于单数形式。
v.(动词)
  • colour用作名词时,意思是“颜色”“脸色”,由“颜色”转化成动词,意思是“着色”“渲染色彩”“受影响”; 由“脸色”转化成动词,可表示“脸红”,多用于口语,强调由于紧张而引起的情绪变化。colour有时也可用于指某物改变颜色,有时还可指“掩饰”。
  • colour作“脸红”“变红”解时,是不及物动词,可与up, with等词连用; 作“着色”“渲染”解时是及物动词,可接简单宾语,也可接由形容词充当补足语的复合宾语,可用于被动结构。
n.(名词)
colours, banner, flag, standard
  • 这组词的共同意思是“旗帜”。其区别在于:
  • 1.flag是旗帜的通称,主要指具体的旗,如国旗、军旗、校旗、团旗、队旗等,也可指交通、天气预报等的信号旗,是一般用语。
  • 2.banner通常指象征意义的旗帜,也可指锦旗、奖旗或用于游行的大幅标语、旗等,主要用于正式场合或诗歌中。例如:
  • The banner of freedom was raised and the whole nation fought to drive out the invaders.自由的旗帜升起了,全国奋起战斗,把侵略者驱逐出去。
  • The group was awarded a red banner for good work.这个小组工作出色,得了红旗奖。

    colour, dye, paint, stain
  • 这几个词的共同含义是“着色,染色”。其区别是:
  • 1.colour的意思最广泛,不管染色的深浅,不分使用什么染料,也不分给什么东西染色。用于比喻义,有“渲染,夸张”的意思,而dye, paint, stain没有此义。
  • 2.dye, paint指有意地“染色”。dye指使用染料永远地改变物体的颜色,如毛纺织品或头发等; paint指把颜料或涂料涂在墙壁、家具等物体表面,使用的材料是耐久的,有“描绘,画画”的倾向。例如:

  • She has stained the floorboards dark brown.她把地板漆成了深褐色。
  • His crimes stained the family honor.他的罪行玷污了他家庭的名誉。
  • 4.dye, colour有“脸红”的意思, paint, stain则没有。例如:
  • Deep blushes dyed her cheeks.她双颊透红。
  • 5.colour也可用作名词。
  • n.(名词)
      她喜欢红色。

      She likes red colour.

      She likes colour red.

      colour的意思是“颜色”, red的意思是“红颜色”,意思重复。正句中的red是colour的同位语。

      colour由表示颜色的词(如red, blue, green, etc.)修饰时,不能直接用在be之后,但可用“be of+red+colour”结构。如不用colour,直接用red等表示颜色的名词作表语,则可以直接用在be 之后,此时是省略了介词of。如果该颜色不常见,特别是复合词,有“一种…色”的描绘意味,则可直接修饰colour,其前还常加不定冠词a,这时也可看作用在be之后且省略of。

    • ☆ 直接源自古法语的color,意为色泽,色彩,颜色。
