释义 | 〔verbal〕Verbal has been used to refer to spoken, as opposed to written, communication by reputable writers since the 16th century, and the usage cannot be considered incorrect.But critics are right to observe that this use ofverbal may sometimes invite confusion with the use meaning "by linguistic means.” Thus the phrasemodern technologies for verbal communication may refer only to devices such as radio, the telephone, and the loudspeaker, or also may refer to devices such as the telegraph, the teletype, and the fax machine.In such contexts the wordoral is always available to convey the narrower sense of communication by spoken means. Verbal 自16世纪以来一直为优秀作家所使用,用来指与书面交流相对的口头交流, 而且不能认为这一用法是不正确的。但是批评家们却正确地评论说verbal 的这一用法有些时候可能会与意指“通过语言的方式”的用法相混淆。 由此modern technologies for verbal communication(用于语言交流的现代技术) 这一短语可能只用于指诸如无线电广播、电话以及扬声器之类的装置, 或者也有可能又指诸如电报机、电传打字机以及传真机之类的装置。在这种情况中,oral 一词总是用来表示用口头方式的狭义上的交流 〔tape〕A continuous narrow, flexible strip of cloth, metal, paper, or plastic, such as adhesive tape, magnetic tape, or ticker tape.胶带,磁带:一种由布、金属、纸或塑料做成的连续狭窄的柔韧带子,如胶带、磁带或自动电报机用的纸带〔telegraph〕A communications system that transmits and receives simple unmodulated electric impulses, especially one in which the transmission and reception stations are directly connected by wires.电报机:发射或接收简单的未调制的电子脉冲的电信系统,尤指发射站和接收站直接用电线连接的电信系统〔telegraph〕A message transmitted by telegraph; a telegram.电报:用电报机发送的信息;电报〔telegraph〕To transmit (a message) by telegraph.用电报机发送:用电报机发送(信息)〔transmitter〕A telegraphic sending instrument.发报器:电报机中发射信号的仪器〔telegram〕A message transmitted by telegraph.电报:用电报机发送的信息 |
