grasp

★★
🇺🇸 /ɡɹˈæsp/ 🇬🇧 /ɡɹæsp/
name 编号: G01204 BNC #3973 COCA #4181
grasp既可以表示用手抓住的动作或抓力,也可以表示对事物的理解,以及伸手可得的机会;在软件设计语境中还可指一组责任分配原则的缩写。
💡 记忆钩子
把手伸出去“抓住”一个东西:手上抓得住,是抓力;脑子“抓住”一个概念,就是理解;机会“抓”到了,就是把握住机会。因此,grasp的核心画面是“抓住”,由实际抓取延伸到理解和获得机会。
📝 学习建议
  • 先掌握“抓住”和“理解”这两个核心义,再记“机会在掌握之中”的引申义。
  • 不要把表示“理解”的grasp只理解成“知道”;它强调真正把概念弄明白、掌握住。

    💡 常见模式是“out of someone’s grasp(脱离某人的掌握)”和“in someone’s grasp(在某人的掌握中)”。它常与物体、控制权或被风吹走的东西搭配,既可字面使用,也可作比喻;不要把它简单当作动作动词来用。

verb
  • core 抓住;握住
    📖 指用手牢牢拿住或控制某物,动作重点是从接触到抓牢。这个实际的“抓住”画面也是其他抽象义的基础。
    💡 常见模式是“grasp something firmly/tightly(牢牢抓住某物)”。它通常直接接被抓的物体,语气比普通的“拿”更强调用力和控制;不要漏掉直接宾语,也不要把它误当作只表示短暂碰到。

    💡 常见模式是“grasp an idea/concept/problem(理解一个想法、概念或问题)”。它通常直接接需要理解的内容,常用于学习、解释和讨论;不要把它误解成“同意”或“记住”,理解了并不表示赞成。

  • common 抓住机会;把握机会
    📖 指迅速抓住并利用某个机会或有利条件,不让它溜走。这是把手上的“抓住”延伸到机会上的用法。

🌳 词源
源自中古英语,最初与“摸索、试探着抓取”有关,和grab有共同的更早词源。
From Middle English graspen, grapsen, craspen (“to grope; feel around”), from Old English *grǣpsian, from Proto-West Germanic *graipisōn, from Proto-Germanic *graipisōną, from Proto-Indo-European *gʰrebʰ- (“to take, seize, rake”), the same ultimate source as grab. Cognate with Saterland Frisian grapsje (“to grab, grasp”), German Low German grapsen (“to grab; grasp”), German grapsen and grapschen, Old English grāpian ("to touch, feel, grasp"; > Modern English grope). Compare also Swedish krafsa (“to scatch; scabble”), Norwegian krafse (“to scramble”).
