adj. (形容詞)
- lower classes, hard up, poor
-
- 這三個詞(組)都用于描寫一些人,這些人不能獲得足夠的錢物以保證像樣的生活水平。其區別是:
- poor是其中最廣義的詞,可指長期或臨時的物質或精神的匱乏; hard up是poor的口頭用語,常指短期物質的匱乏,例如發工資前借錢買午餐或莊稼歉收時的農民,都可用hard up; lower classes習慣上用于指在任何社會中社會地位和經濟地位最低的一些人,那些所謂lower classes的人通常是窮的,然而如今該詞常用作帶貶義的勢利語,指那些胸無大志,缺少教養的人,這些人經濟上也許貧也許富。例如:
- If prices continue to advance, poor people will find it hard to live.如果物價繼續上漲,窮人的日子就更不好過了。
- I am hard up for money this month.我這個月手頭拮據。
- He is a member of lower classes.他是下層社會的一員。
