词组 weakness
释义 weakness
weaknessn. [′wɪːknǝs] (weaknesses)
双解释义
1. U 弱,软弱,虚弱,薄弱  state of being weak
2. C 弱点,缺点  defect or fault, especially in a person's character
3. C 偏好,嗜好  special or foolish liking for sth/sb
基本要点
1. weakness的基本意思是“弱,软弱,虚弱,薄弱”,指某人的身体状况不佳或指某事不够完善的一面,也可指某人或某事的缺陷,即“弱点,缺点”。weakness引申可指“偏好,嗜好”“宠爱的人或东西”等。weakness作“虚弱,软弱”解时是不可数名词,作具体的“弱点,缺点”或“嗜好,偏好”解时是可数名词。
2. weakness作“偏好,嗜好”解时,常用于have a weakness for短语中。
