| 词组 | former |
| 释义 | 1． former 与 ex- 的含义相同，都可表示“以前的”，区别是 ex-只能作前缀用，former 可单独使用: the former governor of Florida the ex-governor of Florida 2． former 作“前者”解时，前面常加定冠词; 它的对应词是 the latter: He has put forward two sugges- tions. The former is better than the latter. fort，fortress，stronghold 3 词都有“堡垒”的含义。 1． fortress 比 fort 大。 2． stronghold 强调“坚固，难以被攻陷”，语气强于上述两词。 |
