  • 词义辨析
  • general, common, normal, ordinary
  • 这四个词都有“普通的”“常见的”意思。它们的区别是：
    common强调许多事物具有某种共同点而“不足为奇”; general指普遍于大多数人或事物中,有“较少例外”的含义; normal形容人或物“符合常态或常规”; ordinary指与一般事物的性质标准相同,强调“平常”而无奇特之处。例如:
    Colds are common in winter.
    感冒在冬天很常见。
    This is a matter of general interest.
    这是人们普遍感兴趣的问题。
    A normal heart beats around seventy-six times a minute.
    正常的心脏每分钟跳动76次左右。
    He worked neither for fame nor fortune and always fought at his ordinary post.
    他不为名、不为利,始终战斗在平凡的 岗位上。
  • common，ordinary，commonplace，general，usual，popular，universal
  • 这些形容词都含有“普通的，普遍的”之意。
    common多用于指物，侧重很常见，不稀奇。
    ordinary用于物，指每天发生，十分平淡无奇；用于人，指无特别之处，很一般。
    commonplace强调缺少新意。
    general语气强于common，侧重大多如此，很少有例外情况。
    usual指常见常闻和常做的事或举动，强调惯常性。
    popular指适应大众爱好、需要，为大家所公认或接受。
    universal与general同义，但语气较强，侧重对每个人或事物都适用，根本没有例外。
