深度学习
neurotic (nur OT ik or nyoor OT ik) Although a century ago, this adjective was considered a scientific term for various emotional or mental disor-ders, such as hypochondria, it is now only used informally to mean exces-sively anxious or upset. A related word, which you might run across in a nineteenth-century novel, is “neurasthenic,” which referred to nervous exhaustion and breakdown. Both words share the prefix which means “having to do with the nervous system.”
- Meg’s dog Georgia was a bit neurotic; every time Meg left the house, Georgia would begin to howl and paw frantically at the door.
- Joel’s friends called him neurotic because he was always so anxious before taking an exam, but Joel believed his anxiety helped him to study hard and do well.

神经质（nur OT ik或nyoor OT ik）虽然一个世纪前，这个形容词被认为是各种情绪或精神障碍的科学术语，例如疑病，但现在只被非正式地用来表示极度焦虑或不安。你可能会在19世纪的小说中遇到一个相关的词，那就是“神经衰弱”，指的是神经衰竭和崩溃。这两个词共用前缀，意思是“与神经系统有关”
