insignia/inˈsiɡniə/n. (treated as sing. or pl. 看作单数或复数; usu. foll. by 通常后跟 of) 1 badges 徽章，标志 wore his insignia of office 佩戴着他官职的标志 2 distinguishing marks 标记 [Latin, pl. of insigne, neut. of insignis ‘distinguished’ (as IN-2, signis from signum SIGN)]■ Usage 用法说明 Insignia is, in origin, a plural noun; its singular form insigne is rarely encountered. Insignia can be treated as a singular or plural, e.g. He was wearing camouflage dress and no rank insignia was/ were visible, but should not be used as a countable noun. 原本 insignia 是复数名词，单数形式 insigne 很少遇到。 Insignia 可作单数又可作复数，但不应作为可数名词使用。如 He was wearing camouflage dress and no rank insignia was/ were visible (他穿着迷彩服，看不见军衔标志)。 |
