词根

"Uneasy"由两个部分组成:“un-”和“easy”。"Un-" 是一个否定前缀,表示“不是”;而 "easy" 原意是“容易的、舒适的”。所以在这里,"un-" 和 "easy" 结合,形成了此单词特有的含义:“不舒适的”、“不容易的”。 其他由 "un-" 衍生出的单词有:unhappy(不快乐的), uncertain(不确定的), unaware(不知道的) 等。

释义

adj. 不舒服的;心神不安的;不稳定的 [ 比较级 uneasier或more uneasy 最高级 uneasiest或most uneasy ]

强化记忆

想象一下这种情况:当你知道“easy”是有些事情很容易、很轻松时,然后加了否定前缀 "un-",变成了"uneasy",意味着你认为这件事是有难度的,不好完成,因此你会感到"不自在”,这可以作为牢记这个单词意义的记忆窍门。"Uneasy" 这个单词源于中古英语的 "unese",意为“病痛、苦恼、困难”。到了现代英语中,虽然意义有所减弱,但其表达的不舒服与困扰的含义仍然保留。
