[动词] 正式或公开宣布
💡 深入解读
Proclaim 一词源自拉丁语proclamare(大叫),由前缀 pro- (向前、在前)+词根 claim (呼喊、叫喊)构成。14世纪末进入英语后即用来表示“宣布、宣告、声明”,主要指官方在口头上正式或公开宣布某个重大事件或施政方针,有时候通过喇叭在公共场所大声宣传,通常是明确、有力和权威地广泛宣传,较 announce 更为正式,
比如:
proclaim a state of emergency宣战proclaim war宣布紧急状态
他自封为皇帝。
He proclaimed himself emperor.
His peculiar accent proclaimed him a stranger here.从大声明确地向外声明宣传这个概念出发, proclaim 也被进一步用来引申指“表明、明确显示、成为标志”,主要指清晰明确地向外表明或显示出来,常作书面用语使用,比如:他那很特别的口音表明他是外地人。
Wearing scarves and hats which proclaimed their allegiance, the football fans flooded into the bar.足球迷们戴着表示忠诚的头巾和帽子,如潮水般涌入酒吧。
America's self- proclaimed civil rights and freedoms have become empty talk.通过 proclaim 这个单词还可以联想记忆与之对应的名词 proclamation (宣言、公告、声明),比如美国第16任总统亚伯拉罕·林肯公布的《解放黑人奴隶宣言》(The Emancipation Proclamation)就用到了这个单词。权威用例美国自我标榜的公民权利和自由沦为空谈。
