Lyrics 指一首歌的歌词,并不是泛指诗歌。表达个人情感的诗称为 lyric poetry,柔美而富有诗意的氛围则用 lyrical。Lyrics 几乎总用复数:the lyrics are beautiful,即使说的只有一首歌也是如此。
lyrics:这次词义能选对吗?
写一句英语,检查词义是否符合内容并查看错误解释。
本次检查比平时稍久,完成后反馈会自动显示在这里。
the lyrics of/to + song; the lyrics are + adjective; write the lyrics; song lyrics
- I've listened to this song a hundred times, but I still can't make out the lyrics.
- She writes the music herself, and her older sister writes the lyrics.
- Can you put the lyrics on the screen so everyone can sing along?
修改原因
修改前Can you send me the text of this song? I want to learn it.
修改后Can you send me the lyrics of this song? I want to learn it.
把歌词说成 song text 看起来顺理成章,但英语中很少这样谈论歌曲。Text 指书面内容或文档,日常还可以指手机短信:I'll text you. 歌曲中的文字通常叫 lyrics,也可以直接说 words:the words of this song。
形容词 lyrical 描述柔美、富有诗意的氛围:a lyrical film about childhood。写歌词的人是 lyricist:The band worked with a famous lyricist on the new album.
动手练习
I love the melody, but she sings so fast that I can't follow the ___.
查看答案
lyrics — 歌手唱得太快,你听不清的是歌词,所以选 lyrics。这里通常不会用 text;它让人想到书面文档或手机短信。
介绍一首你喜欢的歌。说出歌手,并解释歌词的什么地方打动了你。
I love "Yesterday" by the Beatles because the lyrics describe the simple, painful feeling of losing someone.
