shorten的基本意思是“(使)變短”,指縮減其長度或持續時間,有時不是實際地縮短,而只是表面感覺上的縮短。
shorten可用作及物動詞,也可用作不及物動詞。用作及物動詞時接名詞或代詞作賓語。
v.(動詞)shorten, abbreviate, abridge, condense, contract
這組詞用于字詞、段落、章節等時,都含有“刪減”或“精簡”的意思。它們的區別在于:
1.abridge, condense和shorten都可指壓縮文章、著作的篇幅而內容不變, abridge比shorten更文雅; abbreviate主要用于刪除音節、字母或單詞而保留詞頭; contract通常指省略單詞的中間部分,不包括只保留詞頭的詞。
2.表示“縮略成…”時, abbreviate, condense, contract和shorten常與介詞to搭配; condense也常與介詞into搭配。
