词义辨析

n. (名词)

value, merit, virtue, worth

• 这几个词都可以表示“价值”。merit通常指人为价值,所评论的事物本身也许比真实的价值高; value指“价值,意义”,含有excellent的意味; virtue通常指对人、物的“好处,优越性”; worth通常指人们估计的价值比其本身的价值高。

v. (动词)

value as, value for

• 这两个短语都可表示“重视”“喜欢”。其区别是：
• 前者的介词宾语指身份,后者的介词宾语指特征或性质。例如:
• Do you value her as a secretary?
• 你重视她的秘书才能吗?
• I value this old book for its content, not its looks.
• 我看重的是这本古书的内容,而不是 其装帧。

value, appraise, assay, assess, estimate, evaluate, rate

• 这组词都有“估价”的意思。其区别在于:estimate指个人的主观估价; appraise指以专家身份作出最终精确的估价; assay原指化验某物以确定其性质、分量或价值,引申指在衡量某事物之前作出鉴定性分析; assess指对财产进行估价作为征收税款或罚款的依据,引申指在使用某人或某物之前对其作出精确评价,以作最后决定的依据; evaluate是数学用语,指“求…的值”,引申指用比较熟悉的表示法评估某事物的价值; rate则专指评定价值等级的高低; value强调精确地估价。

value, appreciate, cherish, prize, treasure

• 这组词的共同意思是“高度评价某事物”。其区别是：
• 1.appreciate强调理解并欣赏其价值; value强调高度评价并珍视其价值; prize指珍视; treasure指珍藏。
• 2.cherish与prize和treasure含义相同,指珍视或珍藏,但喜爱之意更甚。

value, esteem

• 这两个词都可表示“重视”“尊重”。其区别是：
• value多指由于认为事物极好、极为重要而重视; esteem则指某人因道德高尚而受到尊重或由于某卓越的成就而获得重视,且不仅尊重还有热爱的意味。例如:
• He is held in high esteem by his colleagues.他受到同行的尊重。

worth，value

• 这两个名词均有“价值”之意。
• worth与value近义，但前者强调事物本身的价值。
• value侧重指使用价值，着重人、物或事所具有的重要性、用途或优秀品质等。

词源解说

• ☆ 1300年左右进入英语，直接源自古法语的value，意为价值，价格；最初源自古典拉丁语的valere，意为强大的，好的，有价值的。
