un-1/ʌn/prefix 1 added to adjectives and participles and their derivative nouns and adverbs, meaning 加在形容词和分词及其衍生名词和副词前，意指 : a not: denoting the absence of a quality or state (unusable 不可用的; uncalled for 不必要的，多此一举的； uneducated 未受过教育的; unfailing 经久不衰的，无穷无尽的； unofficially 非正式地，非官方地; unhappiness 忧愁，苦恼) “无”、“不”、“非”、“未”等否定含义，表示不存在某种性质或状态 b the reverse of, usu. with an implication of approval or disapproval, or with some other special connotation (unselfish 无私的，慷慨的; unsociable 不善交际的; unscientific 不科学的) 表示“相反”，通常具有赞成或反对的含义或其他特殊的内涵 2 (less often) added to nouns, meaning ‘a lack of’ (unrest 不安；动乱; untruth 谎言；虚假) 加在名词之前(较少见)，表示“缺乏”、“没有”等含义 [Old English from Germanic: related to Latin in-]■ Usage 用法说明 The number of words that can be formed with the prefix un-1 (and similarly with un-2) is potentially as large as the number of adjectives in use; consequently only a selection, being considered the most current or semantically noteworthy, can be given here. 可以使用前缀 un-1(以及类似的 un-2) 构成的词的潜在数量可能同目前使用的形容词数量相当。因此，本词典中所列的此类词汇只是其中的一部分，是人们认为最通用或语义上最为显著的词汇。 Words meaning ‘the reverse of’ (see sense 1b above) often have neutral counterparts in non- (see NON- 6) and counterparts in in- (see IN-1), e.g. unadvisable. 表示“相反”的词(见上面释义 1b) 常常同 non- (见 NON- 6) 构成的中性词对应，并与 in- (见 IN-1) 构成的词相当，如 unadvisable (不明智的)。 In the case of some words with the prefix un-, there is ambiguity as to which prefix is meant, e.g. undressed can mean either ‘not dressed’ (un-1) or ‘no longer dressed’ (un-2). 对于某些加前缀 un- 的词，前缀的意义较含糊，如 undressed 可以表示“裸体的” (un-1) 或“脱去衣服的” (un-2) 。 |
