释义 nice
Nice is a very common adjective. You use it to show that you like someone or something, or that something gives you pleasure.
He has nice eyes.
It's a very nice town.

Some people object to the use of nice because they say it does not have a clear meaning. This is only partly true.


talking about people


When you use nice to talk about people or their behaviour, its meaning is clear. If you say that someone is 'a nice man' or 'a nice woman', you mean that they are kind and thoughtful.
They seemed very nice men.
We've got very nice neighbours.

You can say that it is nice of someone to do something. This is a way of showing gratitude when someone has behaved in a kind and thoughtful way.
It's nice of you to say that.
How nice of you to come.

If someone is being nice to someone else, they are behaving in a pleasant and friendly way towards them, even though they may not like them.
Promise you'll be nice to her when she comes back.


talking about enjoyment


You can use nice with some nouns to talk about spending time in a pleasant way. This is a very common use. For example, if you say 'Have a nice evening', you are saying to someone that you hope they will spend the evening in a pleasant way. Similarly, if you say 'Did you have a nice holiday?', you are asking someone if they enjoyed their recent holiday.
They were having a nice time.
'Have a nice weekend.' ---'You too.'


talking about things and places


In conversation, you can use nice to say that you like a thing or place. However, in formal writing it is better to find another adjective which expresses your meaning more exactly.
...a delightful room.
...a bottle of nail polish in an attractive shade.
It is one of the pleasantest places I know.


'nice' with other adjectives


In conversation, nice is often used with other adjectives. For example, you can say that a room is nice and warm or describe it as a nice, warm room. When you use nice like this, you are saying that the room is nice because it is warm.
The room is nice and clean.
It's nice and peaceful here.
I want a nice, warm, comfortable bed.
