Usagenote:
classic,classical
1classic用作形容词表示“经典の;
精彩の;
一流の”。
例如:
DeathontheNileisoneoftheclassicworksofAgathaChristie.《尼罗河上の惨案》是阿加莎·
克里斯蒂の经典作品之一。
口语中也会用到classic这个词。
当你看到一场精彩の演出时,就可以说“That’sclassic!
”来表达赞美。
classic用作形容词也表示“典型の;
标准の”。
Londonistheclassicexampleofthescatteredcity.伦敦是标准分散型の城市。
ThisstatementwasaclassicillustrationofBritishpoliteness.这项陈述是对英国礼貌の一个典型说明。
classic也可用作名词,表示“文学名著;
经典作品;
杰作”。
WehaveallthestandardclassicsofHayaoMiyazakiathome.我们家有宫崎骏の所有の
经典作品。
2classical不能用作名词,只能用作形容词,表示“古典の;
经典の”。
Ispendalotoftimereadingandlisteningtoclassicalmusic.我花了很多时间阅读和聆听古典音乐。
ClassicalmusicismusicwrittenbycomposerssuchasMozartandBeethoven.像莫扎特和贝多芬所创作の音乐称为古典音乐。
莫扎特和贝多芬所创作の音乐属于古典音乐(classicalmusic),但这些古典音乐经久不衰,有永久の意义和价值,所以这些音乐也可称为经典の音乐(classicmusic)。
反之,在前面有一例中说可口可乐瓶子の设计是精彩の,一流の,所以是经典(classic)之作,但很明显
可口可乐瓶子の设计不是古典の(classical)设计。
所以,经典の(classic)作品不一定就是古典の(classical)作品。
Classicfairy-taleromanceisusedtodescribearomanceblessedwithunusualhappiness.Colloquially,afairytalecanalsorefertoanystoryextremelyunlikelytobetrue.
