trample 英 [ˈtræmpl] 美 [ˈtræmpl]
CET6 TOEFL TEM8 GRE
基本释义
[verb] tread on and crush
[动词] 踩踏并压碎
深入解读
Trample 一词源自小站前不久推送过小词 tramp + 派生后缀 -le 构成，含义比 tramp 的“重步行走”更进一步，主要表示“踩碎、踩伤、践踏”，多指人或动物踩在人或物上使之受伤、粉碎或死亡，比如：
- 他被一匹脱缰的马踩死了，该马原本拴在一棵树上。
He was trampled to death by a runaway horse which was tethered to a tree. - 勿踏花草！
Don’t trample on the flowers!
除了实实在在的人或物以外， trample 还可以用来引申指“践踏、摧残”人权、价值观、心灵、尊严等，强调故意无视或者当其不重要，比如：
- 恰在这时，无视法律的伐木工人们正在毁坏雨林，践踏土著居民的权利。
Right on cue, loggers who flout the law are destroying rain forests and trampling on the rights of natives.
最后值得注意区分的是， 动词短语 walk (all) over sb 常容易误以为与 trample 同义，实则表示“苛刻对待”某人或“轻而易举地打败某人”，比如：
- 那个低声下气的女孩对他总是逆来顺受。
The abject girl will always let him walk all over her. - 他们可能是头号种子，但我们决心不让他们横扫我们。
They might be the number one seed, but we’re determined not to let them walk all over us.
