alcoholic

“Alcoholic”是形容词,用于描述一个人饮酒过度,对酒精产生依赖,这是一种病态的依赖。可以直接用来形容人,例如”He is an alcoholic”,也可以用来形容和酒精相关的事物,例如”alcoholic beverages”。

  1. He is an alcoholic, so he often feels ill because of drinking too much. (他是个酒鬼,所以经常因为喝酒过量而感到不适。)
  2. The party had a variety of alcoholic beverages for guests to enjoy. (聚会上为客人准备了各种酒精饮料供他们享用。)
  3. The doctor warned him that if he didn’t stop being an alcoholic, it would damage his liver severely. (医生警告他,如果他不戒酒,会严重损害他的肝脏。)

“Alcoholic” 的词源来自于 “alcohol”, 由前缀 “al-” 以及词根 “cohol” 组合而成。此外,后缀 “-ic” 可用于将名词转化为形容词。

“Alcoholic”是一个由酒精(“alcohol”)加上后缀”-ic”形成的词。 “-ic”是一个常用的后缀,表达与…有关或属于…的含义。类似使用此后缀的词还有”acidic”(酸的)、“basic”(基础的)、“organic”(有机的)等。

“Alcoholic” 是由 18世纪的 “alcohol” 演变而来的,最初用来描述与酒精相关的化学反应。20世纪初,它开始被用来形容人对酒精的过度依赖。

“Alcoholic”是形容词, 对应的名词就是”alcoholism” (酒精依赖症)。

“Alcohol”和”ic”之间有一个很好的联系,就像”ic”是放在一个词后形成与该词相关的形容词。 所以,当你看见”ic”结尾的词时,可以尝试发掘他可能的名词源词,反之亦然。

Tom was fond of parties and alcoholic beverages, but his excesses led him down a path of self-destruction. He finally realized the gravity of his situation and decided to fight back. Now he’s an advocate for alcoholic rehabilitation. (汤姆非常喜欢聚会和酒精饮料,但他的过度嗜酒却让他自我毁灭。 最后,他意识到了自己的处境严重,决定改变。现在,他是酒精康复的倡导者。)
