语境与语域Context & Register
语域:mixed 常见场景:写作与编辑、正式叙事与文学描写、书面议论与修辞 作“在文本中加标点”解时,多用于写作或编辑相关的中性场合;作“不时打断”解时,比较常见于较正式的叙事或文学描写,且常用被动结构;作“强调”解时多用于书面议论。整体语体偏书面,日常口语中较少见。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都以 -uate 结尾,但发音有所不同。accentuate、perpetuate 和 situate 以 /-tʃueɪt/ 结尾,与 punctuate 的 /-tjueɪt/ 相似;evaluate、insinuate 和 graduate(动词)以 /-jueɪt/ 结尾。由于重音位置不同,它们都不是 punctuate 的严格押韵词。
