forsake
Definition定义:
n. 1. to leave someone, especially when you should stay because they need you. 抛弃,背弃
2. to give up (something valued or enjoyed) 放弃情感上珍惜或迷恋的东西。
Example例:
1. He wanted to forsake the world and its pleasure. 他试图远离人世及人世的快乐。
2. Never to forsake a friend when he is in trouble. 在朋友有难时决不抛弃朋友。
forsake是正式用法,指断绝关系,特别是指断绝感情上的依恋。所以,恋曲中常常会用到,如:Do not forsake me, Oh my darling. 我的爱人,不要离开我!
Forsake一般用来指永远离开。所以,当我们发现我们的青春一去不复返的时候,既没有后悔药可吃,也没有办法让时光倒流,就有了下面自我安慰的话:
All the beauty that had forsaken her face, seemed to have found refuge in her heart.她如花似玉的昔日已经一去不复返,但是她的心灵却成了美丽的避难所。然而,deserted的含义却强调故意违背自己的义务、责任或誓言,如:
The man deserted his wife and children, home and business..(那人抛弃妻子,舍家弃业。)
当然,这种行为也可能是因为过失造成的,可以说:
He felt guilty at deserting his daughter.他对抛弃女儿感到内疚。
Abandon则是放弃对某物或某人的"拥有"权利,有时候是不得已而为之。如:
The scientists were obliged to abandon their research due to lack of funding. 这些科学家因为缺少经费不得不放弃研究。
Did you see that abandoned car? Its owner simply does not have money to drive it!你看到那辆被遗弃的车子了吗?车主连买汽油开它的钱都没有。
