【同义词辨析】 2017-06-07 愉快pleasure-enjoyment

pleasure: stresses a feeling of satisfaction or gratification rather than visible happiness: take ~ in one's possessions.    (happy幸福,基本意思就是satisfy满足gratify心理满足)

enjoyment: stresses a gratification or happiness resulting from a pleasurable experience: derived great ~ from her books and her music.


pleasure愉快:  强调"感觉"满足满意,而非表露在外,delight喜悦: 和上词相反,强调生动表达明显满意(即强调表露在外),joy也是喜悦: 比pleasure,delight更强烈深切(deep-rooted长期存在影响深远,如deep-rooted crime影响深远的罪行),如欢乐颂ode to joy,delectation消遣:  表示愉快经历带来的轻松散虑娱乐,enjoyment享受: 愉快经历给人带来满足,从这解释看和pleasure同样泛指愉快
