(对于听说或读到的事情的)印象:You can describe your impression of something you have heard about or read about by talking about the sound of it. [the N of n]
Here's a new idea we liked the sound of. 这是个新想法,我们一听就喜欢。
I don't like the sound of Toby Osborne. 我不喜欢托比·奥斯伯恩的那一套。
疑问:
I don't like the sound of Toby Osborne.中的 sound 怎么会是印象呢?
注:内容来自柯林斯字典!
sound 的本义就是“声音”,可以引申为“腔调;声调;老生常谈;陈词滥调”。所以上面两句话,sound 的意思都是引申出来的。
Here's a new idea we liked the sound of. = Here's a new idea which we liked the sound of. = Here's a new idea we of which liked the sound.
这是个新想法,我们一听就喜欢。= 这是一个我们听到声音就喜欢的新想法。
I don't like the sound of Toby Osborne.
我不喜欢托比·奥斯伯恩的那一套。= 我不喜欢比·奥斯伯恩的那陈词滥调。
