Identified
“Identified” 来自 identify,指认出身份、确认关联或标明名称。常见于 identified the suspect(确认嫌疑人身份)、identified as(被认定为)、identified need(已识别的需求)。在科研与商业报告中表示“已查明/已列出”。
- “Police have identified the driver from security footage.” (警方已从监控中确认司机身份。)
- “The survey identified three main reasons for customer churn.” (调查指出了客户流失的三个主要原因。)

Identify 来自晚期拉丁语 identificare,由 idem(相同)与 facere(使)构成,原义“使与……相同/对应”;identified 强调已完成辨认或对应。
ident-(相同)+ -ify(使成为)+ -ed → identified。名词 identity、identification。
网络安全中 identified vulnerability 指已发现漏洞;新闻里 not yet identified 常用于尚未公开身份的受害者或嫌疑人。
- 固定搭配: “identified as” (被认定为), “identified with” (与……产生认同), “identified need” (已识别需求)
- 动词: identify;名词: identification
identity(身份)+ fied(完成)→ 身份已经对上了,就是 identified。
