Finished
表示任务、比赛或阶段已到终点:finished homework(做完作业)、finished product(成品)。口语 “I’m finished” 可指“我累垮了”或“我受够了”,需看语气。
- “She finished the report before the deadline.” (她在截止日期前完成了报告。)
- “The race finished in a photo finish.” (比赛以终点摄影判定胜负告终。)
- “After the hike, we were too finished to cook dinner.” (徒步后我们累到做不动晚饭。)
“finish” 源自古法语 finir,来自拉丁语 finire(使结束),与 finis(终点)同源。
fin(终点)+ -ish(动词后缀,表“使……”)+ -ed;形容词用法为分词形容词。
厨房 “finished dish” 指上桌前的成品;职场 “project finished on time” 是绩效亮点;竞技 “finished second” 报道名次。
- 固定搭配: “finished product” (成品), “finished with” (用完;与……断绝关系), “well-finished” (做工精致的)
fin- 像 final 的“终点线”:finish 是冲向终点,finished 是已经冲过线。
“He finished the puzzle at midnight and finally went to bed.” (他半夜拼完拼图,终于去睡了。)
