💡 深入解读

Turbulence 与小站推送过的turbulent同源,都源自于拉丁语turba(混乱、人群),15世纪初先后经拉丁语turbulentus(本义指“充满骚动的、躁动的、不安的、喧闹的、群情激愤的”,引申指“困扰的、困惑的”)和晚期拉丁语turbulentia(困扰、不安)进入英语。相应用来表示“骚乱、动乱、动荡、混乱、紊乱”,常意味着一种无法轻易平息或减轻的激动,通常充满着很多突然的变化、争论、分歧甚至是暴力,

比如:

社会动荡

social turbulence

边境骚乱

border turbulence

Life for most people was precarious in a time of change and turbulence.在一个风云变幻、动荡不安的时期,大多数人的日子过得朝不保夕。

We experienced severe turbulence during the flight.等到了1918年后, turbulence 进而开始用来表示气体或液体的“湍流、涡流、紊流”,主要指流体在特定区域内的一系列突然而剧烈的不稳定或无规律流动,比如:

The world has entered a new period of turbulence and change. The momentum of world economic growth is sluggish. Destabilizing, uncertain and unpredictable factors are increasing.我们在飞行中遇到了强烈的湍流。权威用例世界进入新的动荡变革期,世界经济增长动能不足,不稳定、不确定、难预料因素增多。
