基本释义
[adjective] able or apt to stay afloat or rise to the top of a liquid or gas
[形容词] 能够或易于漂浮或上升到液体或气体的顶部
深入解读
Buoyant 一词可能源自西班牙语 boyar （漂浮），其基本含义为“漂浮的、能够漂起的、有浮力的”，比如：
- 盐水比淡水浮力大。
Salt water is more buoyant than fresh water.
浸在流体内的物体受到流体竖直向上托起的作用力叫做浮力（buoyancy or buoyant force），在浮力的作用下，该物体自然上升。将这个概念引申到价格或经济活动等中时，则可以用 buoyant 表示“趋于上升的、上涨的”或“保持高价的”，比如：
- 分析家们预计高得离谱的股票价格将持续上涨。
Analysts expect the exorbitant share price to remain buoyant.
当手中的股票蹭蹭蹭往上涨的时候，心情往往也跟着飘飘然，这时也可以用 buoyant 来形容人“愉快而充满信心的、乐观的”，强调心灵或精神上的轻快和充满活力，比如：
- 看完她简洁明了的辞职信后，他高兴得快要飘起来了。
After reading her succinct letter of resignation he was in a buoyant mood.
外刊例句
- The current mood in Singapore, however, is far less buoyant than you might imagine.
然而，新加坡当前的氛围远不如想象中那么轻松。
——《经济学人》 - Despite industry opposition to new rules, the buoyant bank profits could add to the ammunition that influential figures in Washington are using to advocate more radical ideas to overhaul the banks.
尽管金融业反对新规则，但是对于那些在华盛顿极具影响力的人来说，银行盈利上涨，为他们大刀阔斧改革银行业的倡议提供了更多弹药。
——《纽约时报》
深度学习
buoyant (BOY unt) If you’re buoyant, you’re feeling lighthearted, uplifted. Figuratively, we might say you’re floating on air, but the word derives not from air, but from water: think “lifebuoy,” a device that enables one to float in water. In short, whatever floats your boat could make you buoyant. The noun form is “buoyancy.”
- When Romeo learned that Juliet returned his feelings of love, he felt positively buoyant.
- Sanjay’s buoyancy when he received a contract for his novel came partly from the money he received but mainly from his pride at being a published author.
