inebriate
英 [ɪˈniː.bri.ət]
美 [ɪˈniː.bri.ət]
- vt. 灌醉;使陶醉;使兴奋
- adj. 酒醉的;醉醺醺的;陶醉的
- n. 酒鬼;醉汉
将“inebriate”分解为“in”和“ebriate”。记住“in”是前缀,表示“进入”,而“ebriate”与“ebriety”相似,意为“醉酒”。所以,记住“inebriate”为“使某人进入醉酒状态”的意思。可以将“inebriate”形象化地想象为“让某人‘进去’醉酒”,以此辅助记忆。

inebriate: [15] Latin ēbrius (a relative of sōbrius, from which English gets sober) meant ‘drunk’. From it was formed the verb ēbriāre ‘intoxicate’, which with the addition of the intensive prefix in- produced inēbriāre ‘make very drunk’ – whence English inebriate.
