语境与语域Context & Register
语域:neutral 常见场景:social commentary、literary narrative、news discussion 指被社会或群体排斥的人,语气中性但略偏书面,多用于社会评论、文学作品或新闻报道中;日常口语中谈到某人被孤立时也常说,但往往带同情色彩。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
末尾读 /kæst/ 的词:cast, broadcast, forecast, podcast;它们与 outcast 的 -cast 拼写和读音相同,但重音在第一个音节,所以不算严格押韵。注意 outlast /ˌaʊtˈlæst/ 拼写几乎相同,但第二音节是 /læst/;past /pæst/ 与 cast 仅首字母不同;coast /koʊst/ 拼写相似但读音完全不同。
