詞源解說
- 1300年左右進(jìn)入英語，直接源自古法語的sur, seur，意爲(wèi)安全的，保險(xiǎn)的；最初源自古典拉丁語的securus，意爲(wèi)平靜的，不畱心的。
同根派生
- adv性質(zhì)的同根詞
- surely：儅然；無疑；堅(jiān)定地；穩(wěn)儅地。
- n性質(zhì)的同根詞
- sureness：踏實(shí)，確實(shí)；安全。
用法辨析
- sure表示“無疑的,確信的,有把握的”,指主觀上對(duì)某事相信無疑,不涉及有無客觀根據(jù)。在句中作表語。
- “be sure+不定式”往往表示推測(cè)的口氣,主語不一定是人,表示“一定會(huì)…的”“必定會(huì)…的”。
- sure還可表示“無可置疑,千真萬確”“不偏離的,不動(dòng)搖的”。
- sure用作定語時(shí),表示“經(jīng)証明可靠的,可信的”。
- sure沒有比較級(jí)與最高級(jí)形式。
adj. (形容詞)
