基本释义

[noun] a short argument, especially between political opponents
[名词] (尤指政治上对立双方的)小争执,小争论

深入解读

skirmish本义指小规模的军事战斗,一般参与的战斗人员比较少,持续时间比较短,往往也没有经过详细计划,并且远离战争主战场,比如巷战可以说“a street skirmish”。虽然这个单词听起来很轻,像是一阵微风吹起灰尘,但skirmish造成的人员伤亡一般也不小。在日常生活中,skirmish多引申指在政治上对立双方的小争执或小争论。此外,skirmish也可以作动词表示“发生小规模战斗、遭遇战”或“发生小争论”。

影视用例
