💡 深入解读
Trounce 是一个与常见单词 bounce, announce, pronounce 以及小站(微信公众号:田间小站)推送过的denounce等有着相同结尾的单词,可以一并联想记忆。从词源上来看, trounce 可能与法语troncer(切割、切下一块)有关,最早出现于16世纪50年代,先是用来表示“困扰、骚扰、折磨”,进而拓展指“痛打、鞭笞”以及“严责、呵斥、惩罚”。不过发展到现在, trounce 则主要用来表示“大胜、击溃、彻底打败、轻松战胜”,常作正式用语使用,侧重指以大比分或巨大的优势轻松完胜竞争对手

She trounced her rivals in the turbulent, strident and bitterly contested election.她在这场乱七八糟、吵吵嚷嚷、争夺激烈的选举中轻松战胜了众多对手。
