chagrin 里有 grin(笑),但懊恼时露出的只是苦笑——记住:chagrin 是懊恼,不是开心笑。
语境与语域Context & Register
语域:formal 常见场景:formal writing、literary prose、narration of personal feelings 本分析针对“懊恼/屈辱”这一义项。chagrin 多用于正式或书面语,口语中比较少见;常用于描述因失败、未被赏识或犯错而产生的不快情绪。另一义项“粗面皮革”是专业用语,和这里的用法不同。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
发音说明:根据给出的音标,chagrin 读作 /ˈʃæɡrɪn/(重音在第一音节)。其中 ch 发 /ʃ/,与 machine、chute 中的 ch 相同;首音节 /ʃæɡ/ 与 shag 的发音相同;词尾 /ɡrɪn/ 与 grin 的后半部分相同,但因重音不同,两者不押韵。注意 green、grain 与 grin 拼写相似,但分别读 /ɡriːn/ 和 /ɡreɪn/,元音与 grin 不同,应避免混淆。
