turbid/ˈtɜ:bid/adj. 1 (of a liquid or colour) muddy, thick; not clear (指液体或颜色)浑浊的；污浊的；稠密的 2 (of a style etc.) confused, disordered (指文学风格等)迷惘的；混乱的 □ turbidity /-ˈbiditi/ n.□ turbidly adv.□ turbidness n.[Latin turbidus from turba ‘a crowd, a disturbance’]■ Usage 用法说明 Turbid is sometimes confused with turgid which means (of language) ‘inflated, pompous’, or (of objects) ‘swollen, distended’. The confusion arises because as well as sounding similar, both words are used (in different senses) of rivers etc. on the one hand, and of literary style on the other. turbid 有时会与 turgid 相混淆，后者(指语言时)表示“浮华的；夸张的”，或(指物体时)表示“膨胀的；肿胀的”。之所以混淆，是因为二者除发音相似外，都既可用来指河流又可用来指文学风格(尽管意思不同)。 |
