allusive (al LOOS ive) Something allusive is characterized by an indirect reference. The speaker or writer assumes the hearer or reader will under-stand a statement that is not fully spelled out. (Don’t confuse this word with the similar word “elusive,” meaning “tending to escape one’s grasp.”) “Allusive” comes from the Latin word meaning “to play,” and indeed allusions are playfully enjoyable—as long as you understand them.
- As we drove across the Delaware River, Alice’s dad, ever the amateur historian, said allusively, “I hope you’re all feeling like George Washington.”
- When Ms. Witherspoon added a tray of diet soft drinks to the buffet table, she said, “Let there be lite.” When everybody but me laughed, I knew that once again I had failed to comprehend an allusive reference.

- 当我们开车穿过特拉华河时，爱丽丝的父亲，曾经是一名业余历史学家，暗指道：“我希望你们都感觉像乔治·华盛顿。”
- 当威瑟斯彭女士在自助餐桌上加了一盘减肥软饮料时，她说：“让它变得清淡一点。”当除了我之外的所有人都笑了时，我知道我又一次无法理解一个暗指
