短释义:
The Latin root word for irrelevance is relevare, which means “raising up.” The prefix ir- means “not,” therefore if a situation does not relate to or raise your interest, it’s irrelevant. In a courtroom, lawyers who lose sight of their case argue about irrelevances, and your sister speaks with irrelevance when she wakes you up to talk about rainbows. It’s always best to focus on important things, but irrelevance now and then won’t kill you.
无关紧要代表对现在正在发生的事情根本不重要。任何让你分心这句话的事情显然都是无关紧要的例子。
长释义:
The Latin root word for irrelevance is relevare, which means “raising up.” The prefix ir- means “not,” therefore if a situation does not relate to or raise your interest, it’s irrelevant. In a courtroom, lawyers who lose sight of their case argue about irrelevances, and your sister speaks with irrelevance when she wakes you up to talk about rainbows. It’s always best to focus on important things, but irrelevance now and then won’t kill you.
无关紧要的拉丁词根是 relevare,意思是“举起”。前缀 ir- 的意思是“不”,因此,如果某种情况与您无关或不引起您的兴趣,则它是无关紧要的。在法庭上,忽视案件的律师们会争论无关紧要的问题,而你的姐姐在叫醒你谈论彩虹时,也会说一些无关紧要的话。专注于重要的事情总是最好的,但偶尔的无关紧要的事情不会杀死你。
