短释义
If you break down the adjective inadvertent you find the word vert, from the Latin vertere, meaning “to turn.” Advertent comes to mean “turning the mind to,” and as the prefix in- means “not,” inadvertent means “not turning the mind to,” or “not intending to.” When your actions are inadvertent you’re not paying attention to their consequences. Remember that inadvertent ends with -ent by remembering this sentence: “We inadvertently ripped the tent.”
当某件事偶然发生时,它是无意的或无意的。燃气公司向你保证,你的账单中的错误是无意的,他们会修复它,但在你发泄一些情绪之前不会修复它。
