Learner notes
Memory Tip
把 goodness 拆成 good(好)+ ness(名词尾巴),好的品质、好的成分都装进这个词里:善良、美德、精华。
Context & Register
语域:mixed 常见场景:道德与宗教讨论、文学或正式文本、食品营养说明 作为名词,goodness 的语体会随义项变化:表示“善良、美德”时多用于正式、文学或宗教语境;表示“营养、精华”时常见于食品与健康类说明。通常不作日常口语中的常用名词,建议根据具体搭配选择语体。
Pronunciation & Spelling
押韵组合:good /ɡʊd/、wood /wʊd/、hood /hʊd/(都含 ood,读 /ʊd/)。goodness 的首音节也是 /ɡʊd/,但后面多出 /nəs/,所以并不与它们完整押韵。happiness、kindness、darkness 虽都以 -ness 结尾,但重读元音不同,只是拼写相似的形近词,发音不同。
Usage priority
Collins 词频等级为 2,建议结合例句记忆,而不是只背中文释义。
