Memory Tip
动词body源自名词“身体”,可想象给汽车“装上身体”即制造车身,再引申为使成形、使具体化。
Context & Register
语域:mixed 常见场景:literary writing、automotive manufacturing、technical writing 作动词时,body 较少见,多用于正式或文学语境,表示“体现、使具体化”(常与 forth 连用);在汽车制造等技术语境中,也可表示“制造车身”。日常口语中通常不使用。
Grammar Note
作为及物动词,意为赋以形体,后接宾语。
Pronunciation & Spelling
body 的美音读音为 /ˈbɑdi/。shoddy /ˈʃɑdi/ 和 toddy /ˈtɑdi/ 与它押韵。nobody 拼写中含有 body,但重音在 no,因此不押韵。lady、ready 虽也以 /di/ 结尾,但元音不同;copy 拼写接近,但读作 /ˈkɑpi/,都不押韵。
