英语学习中25个最常弄错含义的单词

单词的真正含义是：令人不舒服的。

This is another understandable mishap that a lot of people make. If you actually feel sick then you are nauseated. The object that made you feel ill is nauseous. Here’s how this works. If you’re at an amusement park and you’re sitting next to a full trash can, the fumes from the trash may make you feel ill. That means the fumes from the trash can are nauseous because they are making you feel nauseated.

许多人用错这个单词也是情有可原的。如果你果真感到不舒服，那么你会nauseated(作呕)，让你感到不舒服的东西是nauseous(作呕的)。请看下面的例子。假设你坐在游乐园一个满满的垃圾桶旁边，垃圾桶里冒出的烟雾让你感到不舒服。这就是说，垃圾桶里冒出的烟雾是nauseous(令人作呕的)，因为它让你感到nauseated(作呕)。

9. Redundant

What you think it means: Repetitive.

你认为单词的含义是：重复的。

What it really means: Unnecessarily excessive.

单词的真正含义是：过剩的。

This one is tough because you can use it wrong but unintentionally use it right. When you repeat something a bunch of times, it can become redundant, but redundant expands far beyond just repeating things over and over. A popular thing companies are doing now is firing people but instead of calling it “getting fired, they call it “eliminatingredundancies. The premise being that the employee they’re firing is unnecessary andexcessive and they are thus eliminating them. In pretty much any scenario where there is simply too much of something, it is redundant.
