mention
★★★★
🇺🇸 /mˈɛnʃʌn/
🇬🇧 /ˈmɛnʃn̩/
mention既可以表示简短地提到某事,也可以指这种提及本身;在社交媒体语境中,mentions还指包含某人名字或账号的动态、回复列表。
💡 记忆钩子
把mention想成“轻轻点到某处”:说话时只是顺带把某事点出来,就是“提到”;这个动作或痕迹本身就是一次“提及”,社交平台上把别人点名的内容集中起来,就成了mentions;如果点到的是一个词本身,则是在谈这个词,而不是它所指的事物。
📝 学习建议
- 先掌握日常的“提到”这一核心意思,再记住社交媒体中的复数mentions和语言学中的专门用法。
- 不要把mention一律理解成“详细讨论”或“正式宣布”;它通常只表示短暂、简略地带到。
📖 中文释义
noun

core 提及;提到📖 指对某人或某事作简短、顺带的提到,重点在“点到为止”,不表示已经详细说明。💡 常见结构是 a mention of + 名词,或 make mention of + 名词。这个名词用法比动词更正式、更书面,日常对话中往往改用mention。不要把它理解成完整的讨论或解释。Her brief mention of the delay made everyone nervous.她简短提到延误一事,让大家都紧张起来。

common 社交媒体提及列表📖 在社交媒体中,通常用复数mentions指别人发帖或回复时点名某个账号后形成的相关内容列表。💡 通常使用复数mentions,常和社交平台上的查看、检查或通知功能搭配。它是互联网语境中的常用说法,不宜拿来指一般谈话中的一次提及。具体平台的显示方式可能不同,但核心都是有人在内容中点到了你。Internet plural plural-onlyI checked my mentions after the meeting and found three new replies.会后我查看了提及我的内容,发现有三条新回复。

core 提到;说起📖 指在说话或写作中短暂地带到某人、某事或某个观点,不一定展开解释。💡 常见结构是 mention + 名词、mention + 代词,或 mention that + 从句。它可以用于口语和书面语,但语气通常比“详细讨论”轻。不要说 mention about,也不要误以为它表示正式介绍。She mentioned the broken printer during the team meeting.她在团队会议上提到了那台坏掉的打印机。
-
rare 提到某个词本身📖 在语言学或解释词语时,指把一个词或表达说出来,讨论的是这个词的形式或用法,而不是它通常指代的事物。💡 常见结构是 mention the word/term + 名词,后面再说明这个词的意义或语境。这个用法主要见于语言学、哲学和教学等讨论,普通交流中不常单独使用。注意这里谈的是词语本身,不是词语所指的对象。
