bathetic是什么意思

bathetic

英 [bə'θetɪk] 美
  • adj. 陈腐的;顿降的;假装感伤的

英文词源


bathetic (adj.)
1834, from bathos on the model of pathetic, which, however, does not come directly from pathos (see pathetic), so the formation is either erroneous or humorous. Bathotic (1863, perhaps on model of chaotic) is not much better.

双语例句


1. Dickens's readers really wanted to feel the kind of bathetic sadness that he tried to evoke.
狄更斯的读者非常希望感受到他试图唤起的那种虚假的悲伤。
