词源与构词

记忆钩子 blow your nose 是“擤鼻涕”，a runny nose 是“流鼻涕”；nose 指器官，smell 指气味、嗅觉或“闻”这一动作。

词族与关联词

词族（同一词根派生出的不同词性或形式）
  • nosebleed 鼻出血
    由 nose 与 bleed 构成，指鼻子出血这一情况。
  • nosey 爱管闲事的；好打听的
    形容词，也拼作 nosy，形容过分打听别人的私事，不能简单理解为“鼻子的”。
易混词（形近或义近，注意区别）
  • smell 气味；嗅觉；闻
    nose 是身体器官“鼻子”；smell 可作名词指气味或嗅觉，也可作动词指闻到、闻起来。表示“用鼻子闻”可以说 smell with your nose，但 smell 本身不是鼻子的名称。
    I could smell fresh bread as I passed the bakery. 经过面包店时，我闻到了新鲜面包的香味。
