Gleam,Glimmer,Glint,Glitter,Shimmer等词的辨析Flash, Flicker, Gleam, Glimmer, Glint, Glitter, Glisten, Glister, Glow, Shimmer, Sparkle, Twinkle及其它同类词的辨析1. dazzle: If a very bright light dazzles you, itstops you from seeing properly for a short time.例:a deer dazzled by the headlightsDazzle是"刺眼、晃眼"的意思,特别当光线照得人短时间看不清物体时使用,与下文其他的"刺眼"选手颇有区别。

2. flash: to shine suddenly and brightly for a shorttime, or to make something shine in this way; If alight flashes or if you flash a light, it shines with asudden bright light, especially as quick, regularflashes of light.例:Lightning flashed overhead.Flash是快速地发出强光,意为"闪光",是闪光一族的普通意义,后文还有多个闪光词汇。

3. flicker: to burn or shine with an unsteady lightthat goes on and off quickly; If a light or flameflickers, it shines unsteadily.例:The overhead lights flickered momentarily.Flicker也是闪光,但是与flash闪得不同。

Flash是闪出强光,闪一下马上消失,再接着闪出强光,比如打雷之前的闪电就是典型的flash;flicker也是"闪光门"高手,可是它只能闪出不太强的光,并且极不稳定,闪光时忽明忽暗,译为"闪烁、摇曳",这个词很浪漫,总令人想到Casablanca中迷人的汽车旅馆和那对恋人一起试过的那个long, hot summer's night.4. glare: to shine with a very strong bright lightwhich hurts your eyes; If the sun or a light glares, itshines with a very bright light which is difficult tolook at;例:The sun glared down on us.这个已经不是闪光门弟子了,这是发出非常耀眼的光芒,让眼睛产生不适,且不适效果大大高于dazzle,有可能出现较长时间的失明。

比如氧焊时,如果不戴眼罩看了那种强烈的白光后,好一会儿看不见东西,那就是一种glaring light, 比dazzlinglight历害多了。

5. gleam: to shine softly [= glimmer]; If an object or asurface gleams, it reflects light because it is shinyand clean.例:His teeth gleamed under his moustache;Blue-white moonlight gleamed through the window,throwing the shadows of the bars across the floor.淡蓝色的月光透过窗户照进房来,窗条的影子斜斜地映在地板上。

Gleam是"发出微光",其微弱程度与下文要提及的glimmer相同,似乎在写作中二者完全可以互换使用,不过“柯林斯”字典告诉我们,glimmer的光有点unsteady,类似于flicker。

gleam 是稳定的光线,不会晃动。

6. glimmer: If something glimmers, it produces orreflects a faint, gentle, often unsteady light; to shinewith a light that is not very bright [= gleam]: a weak,glimmering light朗文字典认为glimmer等于gleam,但是柯林斯和牛津皆认为glimmer含有unsteady之意,是to shine with a faintunsteady light,因此一定要与gleam区别开来。

glimmer与flicker相近,也有“光线晃动”之意,但是没有flicker那么"摇曳"得历害:A beam of gleaming light 一道微弱的光线A beam of glimmering light 一束昏暗、摇曳的光线7. glint: if a shiny surface glints, it gives out smallflashes of light [= sparkle]; If something glints, itproduces or reflects a quick flash of light. (WRITTEN);= glisten; to produce small bright flashes of light:例:The sea glinted in the moonlight;The sun glinted on the windows;The gold rims of his spectacles glinted in the sun.该词使用场景描述:一群孩子在草丛中玩耍时,突然一个小孩惊叫起来,"看呀,前边草丛里有东西在发亮"。

众人走近一看,原来是一只银戒指;夏日某夜,有淡淡的月光,四周万籁俱寂,我心事重重,独自来到沙滩上,看着黑黝黝的海水,听着潮涨潮落出神。

月亮渐升渐高,月入中天之时,月光不如先前一样昏暗,海面一下子亮了起来,我看见涨潮的时候,海边奔涌着浅灰色的浪花。

以上两个场景是我臆想的,都适用glint这个词。

Glint的关键点是"闪(泛)着微光",并且光线在变幻,我想到了李莫愁的"冰魄银针"在阳光下发出幽蓝幽蓝的光芒,煞是瘆人,这就是glinting 的光;小龙女的"玉蜂针"一定不是这种光,而是一种明亮得多的光,可用glowing或者glittering。

突发奇想,glint是否有消极、否定之意呢?比如李莫愁是坏人,她的暗器就发glinting的光,而小龙女是好人,并且这么多人喜爱她,因此她的暗器就不会发出glinting的光。

呵呵,这纯属子虚乌有,又是我胡思乱想罢了。

8. glitter: to shine brightly with flashing points oflight [= sparkle];to shine brightly with little flashesof light, like a diamond SYN sparkle例:The ceiling of the cathedral glittered with gold;The river glittered in the sunlight.Glitter一听就比glint, gleam, glimmer等感觉要好,“阳气”要大得多,是积极的、明亮的,正大光明的。

其发光比较亮丽,常用于阳光照射下物体反光9. glisten: to shine and look wet or oily; Ifsomething glistens, it shines, usually because it is wetor oily例:Her eyes were glistening with tears;Sweat glistened on his forehead.;The road glistened wetafter the rain;The boy's back was glistening with sweat;glistening black hair这个词非常浪漫,非常美,往往与水、油等有关。

发出的光令人感觉到湿漉漉的或者油亮油亮的。

第1个例句非常棒,女孩珠泪莹然,楚楚动人的样子真的令英雄魂断,还有美女出浴之后,头发湿湿的,在灯光下就是glistening的感觉,这也令男人意乱情迷。

此处glistened with tears就是那种"闪着眼泪花的感觉";后句"他的额头渗出了汗珠",下一句是"雨后路面湿得发亮"。

想像一下,夏天雨过天晴之后,柏油路在阳光下湿湿的,亮亮的,空气是如此清新,真想在路上小跑一阵,贪婪地呼吸泥土和草地醉人的芬芳。

10. glister: (literary) to shine brightly with littleflashes of light, like a diamond SYN glitter这是一个文气词,常用在文学作品中,与glitter一样,都是指"闪着明亮的光"。

11. glow: to produce or reflect a soft steadylight [= shine];(especially of sth hot or warm) toproduce a dull, steady light:例:The fireplace was still glowing with the remains of last night's fire;The red tip of his cigarette was glowing in the dark;The strap has a fluorescent coating that glows in the dark.Glow是指发出或者反射出一种柔和的光,一般都有强烈或者微弱的热量发出,例句中烟头在暗处发出的光,壁炉中燃烧的火发出的光,背包肩带上涂有荧光粉,在黑暗中发出的光,都是用glow。
