语域:formal 常见场景:formal writing、literary prose、news reporting unrelieved 是较正式的书面用词,通常用于描述痛苦、压力、单调等未得到减轻或缓解的状态,常见于文学作品、新闻报道和正式评论。日常口语中较少使用。
这些词与 unrelieved 一样以 /iːvd/ 结尾,构成押韵。注意拼写:relieved、believed、achieved、grieved 用 -ieved;received、perceived 因拼写规则“i before e except after c”而用 -eived。小心形近词 unreliable /ˌʌnrɪˈlaɪəbəl/,意为“不可靠的”,与 unrelieved 拼写相似但读音不同。
