indelible

📖 基本释义

[adjective] (of ink or a pen) making marks that cannot be removed
[形容词] (指墨水或钢笔的笔迹)无法去掉的


💡 深入解读

Indelible 一词有时候会被误以为是 deny (否认、否定;拒绝承认、拒绝接受)的衍生词,并错当成 undeniable (不可否认的、确凿的)。然而实际上, indelible 源自拉丁语delere(摧毁、抹去),也就相当于是英语单词 delete (删去、删除)的衍生词,本义是指墨水、钢笔等的笔迹或污渍、血迹等“无法消除的、擦不掉的、难以去除的、洗不掉的、持久的”,

比如:

A cascade of blood spouted from the hole and left an indelible mark on her shirt.伤口不断冒血,并在她衬衫上留下了洗不掉的血迹。

I have an indelible memory of that meeting with him in the snug little shop.从这个概念出发, indelible 很自然地就被引申用来表示记忆、行为等“不可磨灭的、忘不掉的”,强调像擦不掉的印迹那般是无法遗忘的,或者说有着永久的影响或效果,比如:我永远忘不了那次与他在那间舒适小店的会面。

The girl who has a peculiar accent learned the equations by rote. Her unhappy childhood left an indelible mark.那个口音很特别的女孩靠死记硬背记住了这些公式。她不幸的童年留下了不可磨灭的痕迹。

The Chinese nation is a great nation. With a history of more than 5,000 years, China has made indelible contributions to the progress of human civilization.权威用例中华民族是世界上伟大的民族,有着5000多年源远流长的文明历史,为人类文明进步作出了不可磨灭的贡献。
