与动词“摆姿势”相对,指不做作、自然的状态
posture 作动词时强调为引人注意而摆姿态,也常指在观点上装模作样,较书面且常带“做作”意味;pose 更常用于拍照、画像时摆姿势,也可指假装或造成(问题),更具体、更常用。两者在“摆姿势”上有时可换用,但 pose 不一定含贬义。
posture 表示“假装持有某种观点或信念”时,侧重在公开场合摆出某种立场姿态,常带贬义;pretend 是通用词,可指假装任何事,不限于观点,也不一定带做作意味。
posture 作动词指把身体摆成某种姿势,或使某物处于特定姿态,强调姿态本身;position 指把某物放在适当或指定的位置,强调地点安排,不强调姿势的美观或做作。
