復(fù)數(shù):?blasts;第三人稱單數(shù):?blasts;過去式:?blasted;過去分詞:?blasted;現(xiàn)在分詞:?blasting;
助記提示
1. 不能夠持續(xù)就爆炸, 爆炸就是那種瞬間炸開的東西，而不是那種持續(xù)性的、慢慢的發(fā)生的那種情形。
2. 不持續(xù)就爆炸. 無法持續(xù)只能爆炸.
3. blast => clast: c‐開，炸開了巖石成碎屑.
4. 由b到c, 這是字母順序關(guān)聯(lián)性，因此clast可以看成是blast爆炸后的結(jié)果.
中文詞源
英文詞源
- blast (n.)
- Old English bl?st "blowing, breeze, puff of wind," from Proto-Germanic *bles- (cognates: Old Norse blastr, Old High German blast "a blowing, blast," German blasen, Gothic blesan "to blow"), from PIE *bhle- "to blow," probably a variant of root *bhel- (2) "to blow, inflate, swell" (see bole).
Meaning "explosion" is from 1630s; that of "noisy party, good time" is from 1953, American English slang. Sense of "strong current of air for iron-smelting" (1690s) led to blast furnace and transferred sense in full blast "the extreme" (1839). Blast was the usual word for "a smoke of tobacco" c. 1600. - blast (v.)
- Old English bl?stan "to blow, belch forth," from the root of blast (n.). Since 16c., often "to breathe on balefully." Meaning "to blow up by explosion" is from 1758. Related: Blasted; blasting. Blast off (n.) is attested from 1950.
