Admonish your friends privately, but praise them openly. —— Syrus
要私下告戒朋友,但是要公開夸獎朋友。 —— 西拉士
admonish means counsel (another) against something to be avoided; caution. 警告某人勸告(他人)不要做應(yīng)避免的事;警告。
例如:
He admonished those frantic football fans to change their wicked ways.
他告誡那些瘋狂的足球迷們改變那種搗蛋的做法。
praise means expression of approval, commendation, or admiration. 稱贊,贊賞表達(dá)贊同、贊揚(yáng)或仰慕。
例如:
She praised her daughter's hard work.
她贊揚(yáng)女兒的辛勤工作。
其常用的習(xí)慣用語如下:
praise be 謝天謝地
例如:
At last I've found you, praise be!
謝天謝地,總算找到你了!
我們再來比較一下praise、acclaim、eulogize、commend的用法,它們都含“贊揚(yáng)”的意思。
praise 系常用詞, 指“對某人或某物衷心地稱贊或欽佩”, 如:praise one's performance 贊揚(yáng)某人的行為。
acclaim 指“歡呼”、“喝采”, 如:acclaim the winner of a race 歡呼賽跑比賽中的獲勝者。
eulogize 指“口頭或書面地贊揚(yáng)或頌揚(yáng)”, 如:eulogize heroes 頌揚(yáng)英雄。
commend 更正式, 指“正式地稱贊或嘉許”, 如:He commended them for their enthusiasm.他稱贊他們的熱情。
