polite
/pә`laɪt/
adj.
Well-bred; refined in manner; courteous or obliging. 斯文的;举止文雅的;有礼貌的。
cf.
Polite describes a manner characterized not only by good breeding, but by sympathy and tact. Polite 不仅指有礼貌,兼指有同情心及见机行事之才智。
Courteous is used of a politeness characterized by dignity, consideration, and deference. Courteous 指举止高尚、深思熟虑、秉性谦让者而言。
Genteel is now sarcastic or vulgar in serious use; it is used of those who make crude attempts at elegance and refinement. Genteel 一字现用作讽刺语或粗俗语,指摹做温文尔雅者之所为,但仍不脱俗气,故此字袖中有贬。
Civil implies a mechanical and uninterested observance of the proprieties, which falls short of politeness. Civil 指拘谨礼节仅为表面文章,非发自内心;故层次较 polite 为低。
衍生词:
adv. politely. n. politeness.
同义词:
courteous, genteel, civil.
