(From M-W) 跟 amicable 相關的字 neighborly companionable friendly 有什麼差別呢? "Amicable," which derives from Late Latin "amicabilis," meaning "friendly," is one of a set of English words used to suggest cordial relationships. "Amicable," "neighborly," "companionable," and "friendly" all mean marked by or exhibiting goodwill and an absence of antagonism. "Amicable" implies a state of peace and a desire on the part of the parties not to quarrel (如 they maintained amicable relations 或 the amicable process of bargaining) "Neighborly" implies a disposition to live on good terms with others, particularly those who are nearby, and to be helpful on principle (如 neighborly concern) "Companionable" suggests sociability and companionship (如 a companionable dinner with friends) "Friendly" stresses cordiality and often warmth or intimacy of personal relations (如 a friendly correspondence) 注意 cordial, cordiality 的發音，d 這裡發 bridge 中的 dg 的音!!! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.175.59 ※ 編輯: sovereignty 來自: 140.112.175.59 (01/09 18:40)
