易错句子Critics heaped obloquy to the minister.
正确表达Critics heaped obloquy on the minister.
heap、throw 等动词与 obloquy 搭配时,承受辱骂的对象要用介词 on(或 upon)引出,不用 to;汉语“对部长大加辱骂”的“对”容易迁移成 to,但英语这里表示辱骂“落到”某人身上,方向是 on。

obloquy 只有名词词性,不能加 -ed 当动词用;要表达“辱骂某人”,须用“动词 + 名词”的搭配,如 heap obloquy on sb,因为汉语的“辱骂”本身是动词,学习者容易把它直接当动词使用。

易错句子He endured many obloquy during the campaign.
正确表达He endured much obloquy during the campaign.
obloquy 表示“辱骂、谴责”时是不可数名词,要用 much 或 a great deal of 修饰,不能用 many;汉语“许多辱骂”不区分可数不可数,容易误加 many。
opprobrium 多指公众一致的强烈谴责以及随之而来的羞辱,常与 public 连用;obloquy 侧重辱骂的言辞本身,也可指个人蒙受的耻辱,两者同样正式,但 opprobrium 较少指具体的骂人话。
obsequy 只表示葬礼仪式,几乎总以复数 obsequies 出现;它的拼写和读音与 obloquy 接近,但二者意义毫无重叠,不能互换。
calumny 指为损害他人名誉而捏造的虚假指控,强调恶意造谣;obloquy 泛指辱骂与恶言,可以是真实批评的激烈措辞,不含“捏造”这一层。
