Context & Register
语域:neutral 常见场景:literature、news reporting、describing a person's appearance 该词比较常见于书面语,尤其在文学作品或新闻报道中用来形容人因疲惫、忧虑或疾病而显得面容憔悴;口语中通常会用tired或exhausted,但使用haggard也不算很正式。
Pronunciation & Spelling
haggard /ˈhæɡɚd/ 与 laggard /ˈlæɡɚd/ 押韵。sluggard /ˈslʌɡɚd/、drunkard /ˈdrʌŋkɚd/、wizard /ˈwɪzɚd/ 虽然都以 -ard 拼写并带 /ɚd/ 结尾,但重读元音不同,因此并不与 haggard 押韵。
