记忆方法
considerate 体贴的
记忆方法:这两个词经常有人分不清,considerable的意思是肥硕的、相当多的。而considerate的意思是体贴的。你看,considerable结尾是able表示能够、能力。值得考虑的是,有能力的人当然能干相当多的工作。considerate结尾是ate表示吃,主人见面就请你吃,当然是十分体贴的。所以如果主人请你吃饭,你想夸她体贴,别忘了体贴需要吃东西(ate)哈!否则夸错了容易变成说人家体形相当胖哦!
合起来表示“值得考虑的”,值得考虑的肯定是很大的,一般指抽象的大(很容易相同的~)引申义为“
很大的,相当可观的”
adj.值得考虑的,很大的,相当可观的
He achieved considerable success.他取得了很大的成功~

小知识
Use the adjective considerable to describe something that is large in amount. Things you probably spend a considerable amount of time on: homework and laundry. Things you'd rather spend time on: anything that isn't homework and laundry!
The adjective considerable can describe something of importance and is worthy of notice or respect. If you are an excellent singer, dancer, musician, writer, or similar profession, people may ask you to donate your considerable talents to charitable causes. If you're not an excellent singer, dancer, musician, or writer, they will still ask you to donate, but they are more likely to ask for money!
