- 1強加、硬冒出來(文雅用詞,日常較少說)
If something obtrudes, it pushes into view or into a talk where it is not wanted. You can obtrude an opinion on people; a memory can obtrude itself — it comes into your mind whether you asked it to or not. The feeling is always a bit rude or unwelcome: the thing is thrusting itself forward.
If something obtrudes如果某樣東西obtrude, it pushes into view or into a talk where it is not wanted它會硬闖進視線,或闖進一場不歡迎它的談話。You can obtrude an opinion on people你可以把意見obtrude到別人身上;a memory can obtrude itself一段回憶也可以自己obtrude出來——it comes into your mind whether you asked it to or not不管你要不要,它都會跑進你腦海裡。The feeling is always a bit rude or unwelcome這種感覺總是有點無禮、不受歡迎:the thing is thrusting itself forward那樣東西就是在硬把自己往前推。
This is a rather formal, slightly old-fashioned verb. Most people would say “butt in,” “force on someone,” or “push in.” You will meet the cousin words and unobtrusive much more often than this verb itself.
This is a rather formal這是個相當正式, slightly old-fashioned verb有點過時的動詞。Most people would say butt in大部分人會說butt in, force on someone force on someone, or push in或push in。You will meet the cousin words obtrusive and unobtrusive你遇到它的親戚字obtrusive和unobtrusive的機會 much more often than this verb itself會比遇到這個動詞本身多得多。
Though actually, writers still like it for thoughts and feelings that will not stay in the background — grief, a smell, a doubt can obtrude, and that use is not about a person being rude, only about something forcing its way in.
Though actually不過實際上, writers still like it for thoughts and feelings that will not stay in the background作家還是喜歡用它來形容不肯待在背景裡的思緒和情感——grief像是悲傷, a smell一股氣味, a doubt or一個疑慮 can obtrude都可能obtrude,and that use is not about a person being rude這種用法不是在說某人無禮,only about something forcing its way in而只是某樣東西硬擠了進來。
