adj. (形容詞)
- variable, variegated, various
-
- 這三個詞都可表示“多樣的”。其區別是：
- various的意思是“各種各樣的”; variable指“不穩定的,易變的,時好時壞的,不同種類的”; variegated的意思是“雜色的,多樣化的”,多用來修飾不同顏色的東西,如花草,樹木等。例如:
- His mood is variable.他的情緒反復無常。
- This specimen is richly variegated in color.這件標本上有很多顏色。
- ☆ 14世紀晚期進入英語，直接源自古法語的variable，意為不同的；最初源自晚期拉丁語的variabilis，意為多變的。
