1. 事務:在日常生活中,任何當下的可見活動總是指涉著不可見的事物整體,人類的事務(affair)說到底就是把在本然意義上不相與、不相通的事物(thing)會通、相與起來,使之成為整體性的世界視域的活動.
2. 事件:項美麗多少有點喪氣地告訴他,不行,她的條件還不夠,而且她最近的一本書<>(Affair)搞砸了. 不過她可不是那種愛訴苦的人,她立刻就打起精神告訴他,眼下她正在寫一本小說,內容是關于一個美國女人和一個中國紳士之間的愛情故事,
n.(名詞)affair的意思是“事,事情,事務”,含義很廣,可指已經發生的、所關心的或必須做的任何事情。
affair的復數形式(其前不加冠詞)不指許多件事,而指重大的或頭緒較多的事務。口語中affair(單數)可模糊地或故意模棱兩可地表示“東西”“物品”或“事件”。
affair用于委婉語時指“男女之間的事”,類似于漢語中的“那事兒”。多指不正當男女關系,也可指正常戀愛。
n.(名詞)affair, business, concern, matter, thing
這組詞在含糊地指那些所做的事時意義相近,常可互換。例如:
It is a regretful affair〔business, concern, matter, thing〕.這是一件遺憾的事。
I don't talk to her about private affairs〔business, concerns, matters, things〕.我從不和她談私事。
它們之間的區別在于:
1.從模糊程度上看, affair<matter<thing, thing的詞義最不確切,常可用在有意使概念含混不清的場合。例如:
How did you find things in America?你覺得美國怎樣?
2.從含義上看, affair強調運行或操作過程,如一道程序,一筆交易,一個行動,一項事業等。business強調職責關系,例如:
It is her business to take good care of the baby.看護好這個嬰兒是她的職責。
concern強調利害相關,例如:
It is no concern of mine.此事與我無關。
matter強調必須考慮和處理,例如:
We have a lot of matters to do.我們有許多事情要做。
thing則是一般用語,口語中常表示說話內容預先未考慮好或說話者力圖掩飾自己的觀點,例如:
I've another thing to talk with you.我還有一件事跟你說。
3.從用法上看, business不能用復數,而affair在指重大的或頭緒較多的事務時則需要用復數。
4.從搭配范圍上看,與foreign、international、state等詞連用時只能用affair,在短語have an affair with sb (與某人有不正當男女關系)中也只能用affair。在指商業上的生意和活動或指“公事”“正事”時只能用business,例如:
It's a pleasure to do business with you.很高興和你做生意。
Business before pleasure.公事比娛樂要緊。
口語中作“出了毛病”“失常”解時,只能用matter而不能用affair和business,例如:
What's the matter with you?你怎么啦?
在泛指“東西”“物品”時,用affair和thing均可。例如:
And these Tubes were convenient things〔affairs〕.而這地下鐵道是非常方便的東西。
☆ 14世紀進入英語,直接源自殖英中世紀諾曼底語的afere,意為人義務中要做的事情;最初源自古語的afaire,意為去做。
