词义辨析

n. (名词)

breast, bosom, chest

• 这组词均可指“胸部”。其区别是：
• 1.bosom和breast均指人或动物的胸部，也指妇女的乳房；而chest则指颈部和腹部之间的部分，包括心、肺等，所指范围比bosom和breast大。
• 2.chest一般不用于比喻；bosom和breast都可用作文学用词，前者指“胸怀”“心胸”，后者指“心”“心头”。

breast，bosom，chest

• 这些名词均含“胸，胸部”之意。
• breast指人或动物的胸部或胸部的前面，也指男人或女人的乳房。
• bosom文学用词，与breast同义，特指女性的乳房，也可用作比喻。
• chest指胸膛，即肋骨所包围的部分。

词源解说

• ☆ 直接源自中古英语的brest，意为膨胀，隆起。
