    名词辨析
    implication,meaning,sense,significance
    这组词的共同意思是“含义”。其区别是meaning意为“意义,意思,重要性”;implication着重指无需说明、解释即可理解的含蓄的、暗示的“意思”。例如She smiled with the implication that she didn?t believe him.她笑了,意思就是不相信他。sense通常指“观念,概念,含义”,也可指“感觉,意识”,在许多情况下,sense与meaning可以替换。例如Some words have as many as twenty senses(means〕.有些词有至少20个意思。significance着重指内在的“含义,重要性”。例如He has quite realized the true significance of her actions.他完全认识到了她的行动的重要性。meaning,implication,sense
    这些名词均含有“含义、意义、意思”之意。meaning普通用词,使用广泛,既可指语言表达的意思,又可指手势、符号、表情或艺术品或抽象概念所含的意义。implication指暗含的意思。sense特指词、短语或句子的某种特定意思,也常指多种解释的一种。
