下⾯是整理发布的英语学习:毫不夸张地说这是⼀个最夸张的例⼦,欢迎阅读参考!更多相关讯息请关注!Hyperbole lies, but not so as to intend to deceive by lying. . . . It is in common use, as much among the unlearned as among the learned; because there is in all men a natural propensity to magnify or extenuate what comes before them, and no one is contented with the exact truth. But such departure from the truth is pardoned, because we do not affirm what is false. In a word, the hyperbole is a beauty, when the thing itself, of which we have to speak, is in its nature extraordinary; for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth; and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality.夸张带有欺骗性,但并⾮由⽬的的欺瞒。

夸张的使⽤很普遍,受过教育与没受过教育的⼈都会夸⼤其词,因为⼈的本性如此,会有意地夸⼤或减轻他们⾯对的情况,没有⼈会满意仅仅陈述事实。

• Hyperbole is a figure of speech which is an exaggeration, an extreme way of saying something. It is a common figure of speech popularly known as exaggeration or overstatement. But hyperbole, which distorts the truth by saying too much, is not the same as telling lies. With hyperbole, there is no intent to deceive the audience. In fact, in the speaker's mind he is truly describing his intense feeling at the time.

7. 夸张HYPERBOLE1. 定义Hyperbole: A figure of speech consisting in exaggerated or extravagant statement, used to express a strong feeling or produce a strong impression, and not intended to be understood literally (OED); extravagant exaggeration that represents something as much greater or less, better or worse, or more intense than it really is or that depicts impossible as actual (as “mile-high ice-cream cones”) (WED). 英语Hyperbole (夸张)一词源于希腊语的huperbole,原意为excess (超过)。

这是一种故意夸大其词或言过其实(overstatement)的修辞手法,其特点是对表达对象进行有违常识或不合逻辑的夸张性描写,以此来取得强烈的修辞效果。

试比较以下例句:(1) He ran down the avenue, making aloud noise.(2) He ran down the avenue, making a noise like ten horses at a gallop.显而易见,例(1)为一般性描写,而例(2)则属夸张性描写,远比例(1)生动形象,使人有如临其境,如闻其声之感。

因此它常用于文学作品和日常生活中,而不用于科学著作、调查报告、情况汇报、政策文件等应用文体中。

就性质而言,英语夸张可分为两类,即扩大夸张(Extended Hyperbole)和缩小夸张(Reduced Hyperbole) 。

修辞7

1 Hyperbole(夸张)试比较以下两种说法: Have you asked your brother to do the dishes?1) Yes, many times.(很多遍了。

)2) Yes, a thousand times.(无数次了。

)很明显,第一种回答方式不如第二种生动,因为a thousand times(无数次)使用了Hyperbole(夸张)的修辞手法。

Hyperbole源于希腊语,意思是exceed (超过),是一种故意夸大其词(overstatement)或言过其实的修辞手法;其特点是对表达对象进行有违常识或不合逻辑的夸张性描写,以达到强烈的修辞效果。

如:a river of tears (泪河)、a mountain of coal (煤山)、oceans of people (人海)。

另外,如:1) You are my lifesaver. (你是我的“救命恩人”。

)2) You are 100% right. (你“百分之百”的正确。

)2) It's a crime to stay inside on such a beautiful day. (今天阳光明媚,躲在家中实在太遗憾了。
