詞義辨析

•civil, courteous, polite

•這組詞的共同意思是“有禮貌的”。其區別在於:

•1.polite指教養良好而舉止談吐彬彬有禮。

•2.civil指僅僅滿足社會交往的一般要求,有時僅指不粗野。例如:

•Be civil in your speech.講話要客氣。

•He was very civil to us when we went to see him.我們去見他的時候,他待我們非常客氣。

•3.courteous則指考慮更為周到,舉止更為高雅。例如:

•She was pleased at the courteous way in which he addressed her.他跟她講話時的那種謙恭的樣子令她十分愉快。

•It was courteous of him to give his seat to my mother.他把座位讓給我母親真有禮貌。

•polite civil courteous

•這些形容詞均含“禮貌的、客氣的”之意。

•polite:polite普通常用詞,指言論舉止無論何時均嚴謹有禮,很有教養。

•civil:civil語氣弱於polite,著重只達到社交的一般要求,避免粗魯。

•courteous:courteous指言談舉止典雅,謙恭有禮,更側重考慮他人的感情與尊嚴。

詞源解說

14世紀晚期期進入英語,直接源自古典拉丁語的civilis,意為和公民有關的,有利於眾民的。
