<< review queue entry 55797 - submitted by 'jt' >> 意思是说非常有勇气，值得嘉奖。但这个词有点偏贬义，虽然有勇气，但未必见得正确。 Editor: 1) It's not a statement of the obvious, that "courage is commendable". Rather it's a way of saying that a *specific person* deserves praise for his or her courage. 2) There are many things that "can 可嘉" (as yves put it). 志氣可嘉 礼貌可嘉 精神可嘉 義行可嘉 ~「老人雖不名一錢，卻能拾金不昧，義行可嘉」。 etc. But this entry can serve as an illustration of the usage of 可嘉. ------------------- TP ~ 次日，楊黃美幸和彭明敏二人成功闖關回到會場，勇氣可嘉。 "The next day, showing commendable courage, Yang and Peng slipped back into the conference chamber." 但《斷背山》應得大獎的理由不盡如此。「斷背山是完美的變色龍電影，出乎平凡、勇氣可嘉，又安全得足以令沉穩的老派影藝學院會員接受。」 But that doesn't quite account for this year's honors.... Brokeback is a perfect chameleon movie, unusual enough to seem brave yet safe enough for staid old academy voters, too." |
