<< review queue entry 65050 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> "curse" can mean "Utter offensive words in anger or annoyance." https://www.lexico.com/en/definition/curse In many of the examples of the verb "curse" on that page, the cursing is not directed at another person -- it's either 1. addressed to oneself (‘I cursed myself for my carelessness’) or 2. to nobody in particular (i.e. intransitive usage such as ‘he cursed loudly as he burned his hand’). "to curse in rage" sounds to me like a case of #2, whereas 怒骂 is transitive. So I think "to verbally abuse" is a better expression. - - - - - - J ~ The lady next door scolded us for throwing the ball into her flowers. 隔壁的那位妇女怒骂我们把球扔到她的花丛中去。 TP ~ 而在BBS上怒罵老師是校長「走狗」， attacked professors as "running dogs" of the university president 兒童虐待不見得就是毒打、怒罵、性侵害，不適當的對待對兒童也會產生深遠的影響。 Child abuse is not limited to beatings, berating, and sexual abuse. There are many forms of neglect or mistreatment that can have far-reaching harm. 使得家屬情緒抓狂，怒罵媒體！ 還不起錢時，被債主惡言怒罵， On the occasions when she couldn't make her payments, she would be cursed and screamed at by the creditor 只是，一旦老師也成了學生怒罵、說笑話或議論的對象，「尊師重道」的倫理關係可就陷入危機了。 Yet once professors become the objects of invective, jokes and gossip, isn't the traditional respect for teachers put at risk? |
