词义讲解

v.(动词)

portray的基本意思是“描述”“画像”,指通过素描、雕塑、油画或表演、文学等手段按照自己头脑中的形象塑造并呈现出现实的效果,以表现人及其个性特征、感情或品质。引申可表示“扮演”。其宾语可以是人、物,也可以是事物。

portray是及物动词,接名词或代词作宾语,也可接as短语充当补足语的复合宾语。

v.(动词)

portray, depict, describe

这组词都含有“描绘”“描述”的意思,其宾语可以是人、物,也可以是事物。它们之间的区别是:

1.describe指用语言文字描述; portray指通过故事、小说等方式用文字来描述,还可专指用笔描绘或绘画; depict指给物体着色或是素描,借用在文学上表示“描写”,强调外表、形象、色彩等具体细节。 例如:

Words cannot describe my joy.

言语不能形容我的快乐。
