Celebrated

“Celebrated” 作形容词时意为“知名的、广受赞誉的”(a celebrated author);作动词过去式时表示“庆祝了”(they celebrated the win)。需根据句法判断词性。

  1. “The museum honored a celebrated painter from the region.” (博物馆表彰了该地区一位著名画家。)
  2. “They celebrated their anniversary with close friends.” (他们与挚友一起庆祝了结婚纪念日。)
  3. “Her celebrated novel was translated into twenty languages.” (她那部广受赞誉的小说被译成二十种语言。)

Celebrate 来自拉丁语 celebrare(聚集、赞美、举行仪式),与 celebrity(名人)同源。

celebrate + -ed;名词 celebration,名词 celebrant(仪式参与者)。

形容词 celebrated 略正式,多见于书评、讣告、艺术评论;动词 celebrated 常见于节日与个人里程碑报道。

  • 原形: celebrate
  • 现在分词: celebrating
  • 名词: celebration, celebrity
  • 固定搭配: “widely celebrated” (广受赞誉), “celebrated for” (因……而闻名)

celebrate(庆祝)的人或作品若被反复庆祝,就成了 celebrated“著名的”;动词则是“已经庆祝过了”。

“The town celebrated the return of its celebrated chef, who had celebrated his retirement abroad for five years.” (小镇庆祝那位著名厨师归来,他已在国外过了五年退休生活。)
