扩展资料
lose的基本意思是“丢失”“失去”,指因事故、过失、不幸、死亡等原因失去拥有的东西等,含有不能再找回来的意思,也可指人失去了品性、信念、态度等或陷入沉思或埋头于某事物之中。
还可引申表示人在比赛、辩论中输掉或某人浪费有用的、宝贵的事物诸如机会、时间、优点等。lose在作不及物动词时还可表示“(手表)走慢了”。
词义辨析:lose one's place,lose one's position
这两个短语都是由lose引起的短语,其中place和position都表示“位置”。其区别是:
前者的意思是“找不到地方”;后者的意思是“失去职务”。例如:
We lost our place because we lost sight of building.
由于我们看不见那座楼,我们就找不 到地方了。
Nobody knew what had lost his position.
谁也不知道是什么使他失去职务。
