hollow词意辨析

empty, vacant, hollow

这一组词都表示“空的”,但涵义有所不同。
empty: 意思是“里面没有东西”、“一无所有”,具有“空无一物”的隐含意义,它可以用来描绘box、vessel、cupboard、bag、purse、room、house、street、stomach、head 等词。
  • this trunk is empty of its contents.
    这只箱子空空如也。
  • we found the room empty.
    我们发现房间里空无一物。
  • at midnight even the busiest street is empty.
    午夜时分,甚至最繁忙的大道上也不见人影。

vacant: 意思是“闲着的”、“无人占据的”,着重指临时性的情况,如:vacant seat、vacant apartment、vacant position等。
  • we have no vacant position here.
    我们这里没有空职。
  • a vacant seat was found in this compartment.
    在这个车厢里找到了一个空的座位。

hollow: 意思是“空心的”、“中空的”、“空洞的”、“下陷的”,它常与tree、ball、cheeks、voice、sound、words、promise等词连用,由此可见,它既可用以指实物的“中空”,亦可指 words、promise、compliments的“虚假”,用于后者场合是比喻意义。
  • this is a hollow tree.
    这是一棵中空的树。
