詞態(tài)變化


第三人稱單數(shù):?assembles;過去式:?assembled;過去分詞:?assembled;現(xiàn)在分詞:?assembling;

助記提示


1、關于為什么會有引申義:gather, together 的解讀,咱們漢語里有“物以類聚,人以群分”之說,英語亦是如此。語言就是這樣,對事物、現(xiàn)象的解讀、看法都具有相近、相通性,只是使用了不同的語言去表達。
2、因此,這里的“gather, together”更多的強調的是相同、相似、同類事物的聚合。
3、as- "to" + sembl- "gather, together; 解讀:物以類聚" + -e.

英文詞源


assemble
assemble: see similar
assemble (v.)
early 14c., transitive and intransitive, from Old French assembler "come together, join, unite; gather" (11c.), from Latin assimulare "to make like, liken, compare; copy, imitate; feign, pretend," later "to gather together," from ad- "to" (see ad-) + simulare "to make like" (see simulation). In Middle English and in Old French it also was a euphemism for "to couple sexually." Meaning "to put parts together" in manufacturing is from 1852. Related: Assembled; assembling. Assemble together is redundant.
