Mentioned
“Mentioned” 是 mention 的过去式和过去分词,表示在谈话或文字中简要提到某人或某事,例如 “He mentioned your name at lunch.”(午餐时他提到了你的名字。)语气上比 discuss 更轻,不一定深入展开。
- “As I mentioned earlier, the deadline is Friday.” (正如我先前所说,截止日是周五。)
- “Nobody mentioned the extra cost.” (没人提起额外费用。)
- “She mentioned that she might be late.” (她说自己可能会迟到。)
“Mention” 来自拉丁语 mentio(提及),与 mens(心智)相关,意为“想到并说出来”。
“Mentioned” 在 mention 后加 -ed,为规则动词过去式。
邮件与会议中 as mentioned above(如上所述)极为常见;not to mention 用于补充强调“更不用说”。
- 原形: mention
- 过去式/过去分词: mentioned
- 现在分词: mentioning
- 名词: mention
- 固定搭配: “mentioned above” (上文提及), “don’t mention it” (别客气)
mention 是“顺带一提”,mentioned 就是“已经提过了”。
“During the interview, he mentioned a project that later impressed everyone.” (面试时他提到的一个项目,后来让大家都印象深刻。)
