large,little和big,small这两组单词有什么区别

问题描述:

large,little和big,small这两组单词有什么区别

big“大的,巨大的”,常指程度,范围,规模,容积,重量,数量等(还可表示“伟大,重要”之意)常可与large互换,多用于具体的、有形的人或物(其反义词多为little/small.)如:Thisisabigcock.这是只大公鸡.Jim\'scakeisthebiggestofall.吉姆的蛋糕是所有蛋糕中最大的.Thereisabigtreebesidethehouse.房子旁边有一棵大树.
large“大的,巨大的”,常指面积,范围,可表示数和量(当它直接用于人时,可表示身体的大),其反义词为small.如:TheysayChinaisalargeandbeautifulcountry.他们说中国是一个面积大而美丽的国家.Wehavealargefarm.我们有一个大农场.Ilikethecolour,butit\'stoolarge.我喜欢这种颜色,但是它太大了.
值得注意的是,big还可以作“长大了”解
我觉得一般small多用于形容尺寸或是规模等,而little多用于描述数量和时间,应用时要看具体情况.你可以参见下面的详细解释和用法.希望可以帮到你.:)
