eschew和avoid的区别?
The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language:Fourth Edition.2000.
其中提到了下列6个单词的释辨
escape,avoid,shun,eschew,evade,elude
These verbs mean to get or stay away from persons or things.
(1)Escape can mean to get free or to remain untouched or unaffected by something unwanted:“Let no guilty man escape,if it can be avoided” (Ulysses S.Grant).
(2)Avoid always involves an effort to keep away from what is considered to be a source of danger or difficulty:avoiding strenuous exercise.
(3)Shun refers to deliberately keeping clear of what is unwelcome or undesirable:“Family friends … she shunned like the plague” (John Galsworthy).
(4)Eschew involves staying clear of something because to do otherwise would be unwise or morally wrong:“Eschew evil,and do good” (Book of Common Prayer).
(5)Evade implies adroit maneuvering and sometimes implies dishonesty or irresponsibility:tried to evade jury duty.To elude is to get away from artfully:eluded their pursuers.
区别很明显.avoid是指一种避开危险的努力,eschew表示避开某事情.如果做了,就显得很不明智,很愚蠢
