hint ，clue，implication，inference有什么区别？谢谢

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

hint 可以用做名词和动词.
用做名词的时候, 意思是:something you say or do to show what you know or want. 就是说用语言或行动来表示你想要的或者是知道的事情．
eg:He's dropped (= given) several hints to the boss that he'll quit if he doesn't get a promotion.
Did she give you any hints about where she was going?
You can't take (= understand) a hint, can you? Just go away and leave me alone!
做动词用的时候， 意思是：暗示．
eg:Mum's hinted (that) she might pay for my trip to Mexico if I pass all my exams.
He's hinted at the possibility of moving to America.

clue 一般都用做名词．意思是：a sign or some information which helps you to find the answer to a problem, question or mystery, 就是说一般都是一种信号或者是信息， 能够使我们找到一个问题， 或者迷团的答案．很多时候我们解释为线索．
eg：1．Police are still looking for clues in their search for the missing girl.
2．I'm never going to guess the answer if you don't give me a clue.
例句1如果用hint 来代替的话就不合适， 因为hint就是有人暗示的， 而clue是线索．
clue 加less 是形容词．

clue 用做动词，是向某人介绍情况． 有固定的搭配． 是clue sb in/up向某人介绍最近发生的事情．
He'd been out of the country for weeks, so I clued him in on all that's been happening.
由于他离开这个国家有好几个星期了， 我向他介绍了他离开其间的时事．
implication
含义;言外之意;暗示[C][U][+that][(+for)]
Did you gather the implications of her remark?
你猜到她那番话的含义了吗?
I resent your implication that my work is unsatisfactory.
我讨厌你这话的弦外之音,似乎我的工作不能令人满意。

inference
推论,推断[U]
He hasn't written to us for ages, and my inference is that his eyesight must have gotten worse.
他许久没来信了,我想他的视力一定变得更糟了。
