remove

★★★★

🇺🇸 /ɹimˈuv/ 🇬🇧 /ɹɪˈmuːv/

noun 编号: R01419 牛津3000 BNC #866 COCA #876

remove 的核心意思是“把某物从原处拿走”，也可引申为删除、免职、离开，以及表示人与人或事物之间的距离和层次。

💡 记忆钩子

想象把东西从原来的位置上移开：把物品拿走就是“移除”，把文字删掉也是“移除”，把人赶出职位或地方同样是“移除”。东西移开后还会留下“间隔”，所以 at one remove 表示隔着一层或有一定距离；由此又引申出情感上的疏远和客观地退一步观察。

📝 学习建议

先掌握动词“拿走、删除”这两个核心义，再学习“免职”和表示距离的名词用法。
不要把 remove 只理解成“删除”；在 remove the box 等句子中，它通常是把实体物品移走。
表示“搬家”时，现代英语更常用 move；remove 表示此义多见于较旧或特定语境。

📖 中文释义

noun

common 移走；移除这一动作

📖 指把某物从原来的位置拿走这一行为，重点在“移开”这个动作本身。

💡 常见于 the remove of... 这类较正式结构，但日常英语通常改用 removal。不要把它当作动词直接使用；需要表达“移除某物”时应说 remove something。

The remove of the old sign took only a few minutes.

移走旧招牌只花了几分钟。
rare 换上的一道菜

📖 旧式宴席中，前一道菜撤下后换上的菜，也就是一道新的上菜次序。

historical
rare 学校中的一个年级或班级

📖 英国部分公学旧式的分班名称，特指接近毕业前的某个年级。

British
common 隔一层；一个层次

📖 表示两者之间隔着一步或一层关系，常用于说明亲疏、直接程度或层级。

💡 最常见的结构是 at one remove，表示“隔着一层、不是直接的”。不要把 remove 理解成具体的空间移动；这里强调的是关系或层次上的间隔。

She is only one remove from the company’s founder.

她和这家公司的创始人之间只隔着一层关系。
common 距离；间隔

📖 指两个地点、时间或事件之间隔开的程度，是“移开”后留下的距离。

💡 常见于 some distance removed from...、several removes away 等较正式或文学化表达。日常表达具体距离时通常用 distance 或 gap，不要把 remove 当作普通的“距离”量词。

The village lies several removes from the nearest railway station.

这个村庄距离最近的火车站有一段距离。
common 情感上的疏远

📖 表示人与人之间缺少亲近感，仿佛在情感上被移开了一段距离。

💡 通常用 emotional remove 或 a sense of remove from someone，语气偏书面。不要直接把它和 physical distance 混用；这里说的是态度冷淡或关系疏远。

broadly figuratively

He spoke with a noticeable remove from the rest of the group.

他说话时明显和小组其他人保持着情感距离。
common 退一步客观看

📖 指把自己从事情中稍微抽离，以旁观者的距离进行更客观的判断。

💡 最常见的表达是 at one remove，后面常接 from 加对象。这个义项强调观察角度，不是说人真的离开了现场；学习时可和 at a distance 对照。

broadly figuratively

At one remove, the argument seemed less personal.

退一步看，这场争论似乎没那么针对个人。
rare 搬迁

📖 指把住所或营业地点移到别处，即一次搬家；这是较旧的说法。

dated
rare 给马重新钉马掌

📖 马术旧式用语，指取下旧马掌并重新装上。

removes plural

verb

core 删除

📖 把文字、文件、程序或其他内容从原来的位置或系统中删去，使它不再保留。

💡 常见结构是 remove something from a list/file/menu，也可说 remove a word。它比 delete 更宽，既能表示删掉数字内容，也能表示拿走实体物品；不要只把它译成“删除文件”。

transitive

Please remove my name from the mailing list.

请把我的名字从邮件列表中删掉。

You can remove the app if you no longer use it.

如果你不再使用这个应用，可以把它卸载掉。
core 拿走；移开

📖 把人或物从一个地方移到别处，尤其强调从原处拿走；这是 remove 最基本的“移开”概念。

💡 常见结构是 remove something from somewhere，或 remove someone from a place。宾语通常是被移走的人或物，不能只说 remove 来表达“搬走某物”；若强调搬到新地点，move 往往更自然。

transitive

Please remove the wet clothes from the floor.

请把湿衣服从地板上拿走。

The nurse carefully removed the bandage.

护士小心地取下了绷带。
rare 移走；取走

📖 旧式或正式用法，仍表示把某物从原处拿走，核心概念与普通的“移开”相同。

formal obsolete transitive
rare 杀害

📖 委婉或旧式地表示杀死某人，即把这个人从世上“移除”。

transitive
rare 使击球手出局

📖 板球术语，指让击球手出局，使其不能继续击球。

transitive
common 抛开；排除

📖 把想法、感情或疑虑从心里移开，不再考虑或不再受其影响。

💡 常见结构是 remove a thought/doubt/fear from your mind，或 remove something from consideration。对象多是抽象事物；不要误以为它只用于实体物品，也不要和 forget 完全等同。

transitive

She tried to remove all doubt from his mind.

她努力消除他心中的所有疑虑。
rare 离开

📖 古旧的不及物用法，表示自己离开某地，仍可看作“从原处移开”。

archaic intransitive
rare 搬迁

📖 古旧用法，表示改变住所或营业地点，搬到别处。

archaic intransitive
common 免职；撤职

📖 把某人从职位或公职上移开，即解除其职务。

💡 常见结构是 remove someone from office/post，或 remove someone as chairperson。这个义项通常涉及正式职位或权力关系；不要把普通的解雇一律翻成 remove，日常工作语境常用 dismiss 或 fire。

The board removed him from office after the investigation.

调查结束后，董事会解除了他的职务。
