peculiar, characteristic, distinctive, individual
這四個詞都可用來描述特有的或借以識別某人或某物的性質或特征。characteristic常強調所指性質的典型性,也可以表示這些性質使某一事物區別于其他的事物; individual強調能使事物區分開來的特性; peculiar有時可與individual換用,可以強調不尋常的特點,由于其含意較廣,所以語意較弱; distinctive不像peculiar或individual那樣強調個性化的特征,而是表示不尋常的,能借以辨別事物的特征,常指值得稱頌的特征。
☆ 15世紀中期進入英語，直接源自拉丁語的peculiaris，意為私有的。
