词源
- adopt收养发音释义:[ə'dɑpt] vt. 采取;接受;收养;正式通过vi. 采取;过继 结构分析:adopt = ad(去)+ opt(选择)→选择然后采用→采纳;选择然后领走→收养 词源解释:opt←拉丁语optare(选择) 同源词: adoption(采用、收养),option(选项、选择权),opt(选择) 背景知识:adopt在现代通常表示“收养”。与生养相比,收养的最大特点是你拥有选择权,可以按照自己的意愿选择自己喜欢的孩子。英语单词adopt强调的是你可“选择”,而不是“非亲生”。
- adopt采纳前缀ad-, 去,往。词根opt, 选择,见option.
- adopt采取,采用,通过;收养词根词缀: ad-加强意义 + -opt-选择
