- 這是個(gè)什么詞?
詞:transferable
英英釋義:able to be transferred or made over to another field
例句:Communication skills are highly transferable.
- 為什么選這個(gè)詞?
“transferable”是形容詞,意思是“可用于其他工作的、通用于多領(lǐng)域的”,是一個(gè)靈活、地道的詞。transferable 常用來形容一類知識(shí)或技能,表明它們可以被應(yīng)用在其它的領(lǐng)域,用英文解釋 transferable skills 可以說成:
Transferable skills are skills and abilities that are relevant and helpful across different areas of life: socially, professionally and at school.
我們經(jīng)常說很多工作都需要很強(qiáng)的溝通能力,也就是說溝通技巧的普適性強(qiáng),可以用在各種工作中,這時(shí)候就可以用到 transferable:
Communication skills are highly transferable. If you are a great communicator, you can easily take your skills from one job to another.
數(shù)學(xué)是最基礎(chǔ)的學(xué)科之一,是很多其他學(xué)科的基礎(chǔ),我們可以說:
Mathematics is one of the most fundamental disciplines. Whether you want to be an engineer, a banker, or a computer scientist, you had better learn it well, because it's transferable.
《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人》在一篇關(guān)于各國(guó)成年人的技能差異的文章中有這么一段話,里面用到了 transferable skills:
Mr Giesen, who previously taught in a Berufsschule (vocational school), thinks one reason may be a gap between what vocational students learn at school and what they are expected to do in the workplace. Such schools are being encouraged to work more closely with businesses and teach more transferable skills.
- 怎樣學(xué)會(huì)使用這個(gè)詞?
1)翻譯下面的句子:
很多雇主常常會(huì)找那些能夠展示出通用技能的人。
Many employers often look for those who can demonstrate transferable skills.
(參考翻譯:Many employers often look for people who can demonstrate a good set of transferable skills. )
2)結(jié)合自己的生活、學(xué)習(xí)、工作、興趣等,想象在什么語境下會(huì)用到這個(gè)表達(dá)。先簡(jiǎn)要描述這個(gè)場(chǎng)景,再造句。
