v.(動詞)depress的基本意思是“壓下”“推下”“拉下”,指以壓力或超重使某物下降。引申可指人因身體或精神原因而“頹唐”“使愁苦”“使沮喪”,側重于體力減少或某器官功能減弱; 指其他事物如市場價格、社會或文化狀況等時,側重活動力減少,即“使不活潑”“使跌價”“使蕭條”等。
depress是及物動詞,通常接由名詞或代詞充當的簡單賓語。

v.(動詞)depress, oppress, weigh
這組詞都可表示“對某物或某人施加壓力或重負,令其在重壓下倒塌或沮喪”。其區別是：
1.weigh在結果或降低的程度上比depress弱,但更側重困難或負重,常和down, on或upon連用。
2.depress指以壓力或超重使某物下降,也指因身體原因或精神原因而頹唐,側重于體力減少或某器官功能減弱,指其他事物時,側重活動力減少。例如:
The little girl depressed the button.這個小女孩按下按鈕。
Bad weather depresses me.壞天氣使我感到郁悶。
His defeat in the last cross-country race depressed him.他在上一次越野賽中的失敗使他感到沮喪。
3.oppress即像weigh一樣強調重負,也像 depress一樣強調結果。
