Memory Tip
记忆联想:ir- 表示‘不’,responsibility 是责任;把责任当皮球踢走,就是 irresponsibility(不负责任)。
Context & Register
语域:formal 常见场景:formal writing、news commentary、serious discussion irresponsibility 是抽象名词,比 irresponsible 更书面化,通常用于正式写作或严肃讨论,表示责任感的缺失;口语中较常改用 being irresponsible 或 irresponsible behavior。该词在正式评价中比较常见。
Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都以 /ˈbɪləti/ 结尾并重读该音节,因此都与 irresponsibility 押韵。注意:并非所有以 -ity 结尾的词都押韵,如 city /ˈsɪti/、university /ˌjuːnɪˈvɜːsəti/、curiosity /ˌkjʊəriˈɒsəti/,它们的重读元音不同。
