以上综合摘抄自《牛津高阶英语词典第八版》英语原版

注:

1,上面说的Dress是不可数名词,澳洲留学办理签证需要哪些流程是说,当dress含义是“衣服”时,是不可数名词;而dress还有“连衣裙”等意思,可以是可数名词。

所有同义词的比较都是将各单词相同意义的义项进行比较,分析其含义的细微差别和使用场合的不同,这样才会有意义。而不同意义的义项其意义本就不同,就没必要再去比较了。

2,注意发音。cloth,含义:布,n.中字母“o”的发音同Clothing、clothes、clothe等的发音不同,前者是发Ball中的“al”音,后3个是发goat中的“oa”的音。而“th”发音也和后三者不同,为清辅音,后三者的“th”都是发浊辅音。

3,服装公司,我见过garment/chothing company说法较多,感觉clothes company可能是错误的说法。
