📖 基本释义
[verb] turn from liquid into vapour
[动词] 从液体变成蒸气
💡 深入解读
Evaporate 是一个与常见单词 corporate (全体的、共同的;公司的;联合的;企业集团)有着相同结尾的单词,两者可以一并联想记忆。从词源上来看, evaporate 一词源自拉丁语evaporare(分散在蒸气中),15世纪初由evaporare的过去分词evaporatum进入英语,即用来表示“(使)蒸发、(使)挥发”以及通过加热“(使)脱水、去除……中的水分”
Heat until all the water has evaporated.加热直至水全部蒸发。

His wrath evaporated and he wanted to cry.等到了17世纪10年代后, evaporate 开始用来引申指逐渐“(使)消失、(使)消散、(使)衰减”,侧重指像水变成蒸汽那般(使)某个东西悄无声息、不引人注意地完全逝去,也可以用来描述人偷偷摸摸、谨慎或突然地离去,并进一步引申指“死亡”。比如:他的盛怒渐渐消失,想大哭一场。
The project evaporated and Trump was left high and dry.那个项目逐渐叫停,特朗普陷入了困境。
After his first wife evaporated, he married the ebullient girl.他在原配妻子死后与这位奔放的姑娘结了婚。
值得注意的是,在物理学中, evaporate 还可以用来表示“放射、发射”中子、电子等,比如从原子核放射出中子(evaporate neutrons from a nucleus)。
