參考詞彙
(1)fault, failing, weakness, frailty, foible, vice
(2)These nouns denote an imperfection or deficiency of character. A
這些名詞表示品質的不完美和缺陷。
(3)fault is a quality or trait that detracts from moral excellence:
Fault 指品德或品質違反道德:
「If we had no faults of our own, we would not take so much pleasure in noticing those of others」 (La Rochefoucauld). A
「如果我們自己沒有罪過,我們就不會樂於注意別人的罪過」 (拉·羅開福考德)。
(4)failing is a minor fault or shortcoming:
Failing 指小錯或缺點:
「An inability to stay quiet . . . is one of the most conspicuous failings of mankind」 (Walter Bagehot).
「不能安於現狀…是人類最顯著的缺點」 (瓦特·白哲特)。
(5)Weakness suggests deficiency of moral strength or force of character:
Weakness 指缺乏道德力量或性格力量:
「We must touch his weaknesses with a delicate hand. There are some faults so nearly allied to excellence, that we can scarce weed out the fault without eradicating the virtue」 (Oliver Goldsmith). The term is related to but stronger than frailty, which implies the likelihood of yielding to temptation:
「我們必須用巧妙的手腕抓住他的弱點。有許多弱點近似於優點,使我們很難消除弱點而同時不根除美德」 (奧利佛·戈德史密斯)。這個詞與frailty 有關但又比它強烈,指向脾氣屈服:
「Our frailties are invincible, our virtues barren」 (Robert Louis Stevenson). Even weaker in imputing censure is foible, which refers to a minor defect that is easily overlooked and may even be endearing:
「我們的錯誤看不到,我們的美德貧乏」 (羅伯特·路易斯·斯蒂文森)。指責語氣更弱的是foible, 它指易被忽視並有可能被人喜愛的小毛病:
「Science is his forte, and omniscience his foible」 (Sydney Smith).
「科學是他的長處,而無所不知則是他的小缺點」 (西德尼·史密斯)。
(6)Vice in this comparison refers to a moral flaw or in a weaker sense to a defect of character:
Vice 在比較中指道德缺點或對性格弱點的較微弱感覺:
「Lord, Lord, how subject we old men are to this vice of lying!」 (Shakespeare).
「老天爺,老天爺,我們的老人們對說謊的缺點是多麼主觀呀!」 (莎士比亞)。
「Obstinacy, Sir, is certainly a great vice」 (Edmund Burke).See also Synonyms at blame, blemish
「先生,頑固當然是一個大缺點」 (愛德蒙·伯克)參見同義詞 blame, blemish
