词义讲解
词源解说
n.(名词)
fault表示具体的“缺点,错误,缺陷,故障”时,可用作可数名词; 泛指抽象的“过失,过错”“责任”时,是不可数名词。
短语to a fault指好得过分以至于要变坏了,它常与正面意思的形容词或副词连用。
find fault with中的fault是不可数名词,表示“挑剔”,也可说find much fault with; find a fault〔faults〕 in中的fault是可数名词,表示“看出…的缺点”,也可说find many faults in。
n.(名词)
这两个词都有“缺点,缺陷”的意思。其区别是:
defect强调不影响全*,完美不足,而fault强调不十分严重,无伤大雅; 用于人时, defect多指人体器官上的缺陷,而fault多指道德行为的缺点; 用于物时, defect指易于察觉的缺陷, fault则指功能方面的缺陷。例如:
He has some defects in his eyesight.他的视力有缺陷。
I bought the cloth cheap because there is a small defect in it.这布我买得便宜,因为上面有个小疵点。
Snobbishness was his main fault.他的主要缺点是势利眼。

His only fault is that he lacks ambition.他唯一缺点就是没有雄心壮志。
This accident is due to a fault in the electrical circuit.这次事故是由电路故障引起的。
There is a fault in the machine.这机器有毛病。
☆ 13世纪晚期进入英语,直接源自古法语的faute,意为缺少;*初源自古典拉丁语的falsus,意为欺骗。
