triumphal/traiˈʌmf(ə)l/adj. of or used in celebrating a triumph 胜利的,凯旋的;庆祝胜利的 [Middle English from Old French triumphal or Latin triumphalis (as TRIUMPH)]■ Usage 用法说明 Triumphal, meaning ‘of or used in celebrating a triumph’, e.g. triumphal arch, should not be confused with triumphant meaning ‘victorious’ or ‘exultant’, e.g. the triumphant army; a triumphant laugh. 表示“胜利的,凯旋的;庆祝胜利的”之意的 triumphal ,如 triumphal arch (凯旋门),不应与 triumphant 相混淆,后者表示“胜利的;欢欣鼓舞的;洋洋得意的”,如 the triumphant army (打胜仗的军队); a triumphant laugh (洋洋得意的大笑)。 |
