Compared meaning: a person's opinion or view (noun).
比较义项:意见、看法(名词)。
- view
View stresses a personal way of seeing or interpreting something, often introduced by phrases like 'in my view' or 'take the view that'; it sounds more formal and reasoned than opinion.
view 强调个人观察或理解事物的方式,常以“in my view”或“take the view that”这类说法引出,听起来比 opinion 更正式、更经过思考。
Doctors take the view that early screening saves many lives.
医生们的看法是,及早筛查能挽救许多生命。
- opinion
Opinion is the plain, all-purpose word for what someone thinks or judges, used in everyday contexts without the formality of view or the emotional weight of sentiment.
opinion 是表示某人想法或判断时最普通、最通用的词,用于日常语境,既没有 view 那样的正式感,也没有 sentiment 那样的情感色彩。
The teacher gave her honest opinion of the student's essay.
老师对这名学生的作文给出了她诚实的意见。
- sentiment 本词
Sentiment adds an emotional or attitudinal quality, often describing a feeling-based opinion held by one person or a whole group, and is common in formal or literary writing.
sentiment 带有情感或态度色彩,常指个人或群体所持有的、带感情色彩的看法,多见于正式或文学性的书面语中。
His letter expressed a deep sentiment of gratitude toward his old teacher.
他的信表达了对昔日老师深深的感激之情。
View, opinion, and sentiment all mean what someone thinks. Opinion is the plain, everyday word. View suggests a personal, reasoned way of seeing something. Sentiment adds emotion, a feeling-based opinion, often of a group. This does not cover view meaning 'scenery' or plain 'emotion'.
这三个词在“意见、看法”这个意义上相近,但语气和正式程度不同:view 强调个人的观点或视角,opinion 是最普通、最常用的词,sentiment 则带有情感色彩,常表示带感情的看法或群体的普遍情绪。此处不比较 view 表示“景色”的义项(如 a view of the city),也不比较 sentiment 表示单纯情绪、感情本身的用法。
