В этом уроке изучаем синонимы BIG. Вот вы знали, что есть как минимум 20 синонимов к слову big?
Слабо их все назвать?))
А ведь некоторые искренне верят в то, что английский –
бедный язык. У меня плохие новости. Это не английский – бедный, это ИХ
английский – бедный)) Уж извините за прямолинейность.
И все же, какие есть синонимы big?

И это еще не все, поверьте!
Подробнее о том, зачем вообще нужны синонимы.
Разница между синонимами big
Как мы уже увидели, у слова big нереально много
синонимов. Как же в них не запутаться?
И хотя толковые англо-английские словари — мегаполезная вещь, словарные определения разных синонимов не добавляют ясности. Вот вы видите большую разницу между этими определениями?
- notably large in size, amount or extent
- exceptionally large or heavy
- large and heavy, impressively large
- of considerable importance, size or worth
- abnormally or extremely large
- extremely large or great, especially in scale or
degree
Вот и я нет))
Вообще, конечно, многие синонимы big можно использовать взаимозаменямо.
Но не всегда и не все. Гораздо полезнее для понимания разницы (а также грамотной речи и увеличения словарного запаса) между синонимами — знание устойчивых словосочетаний, collocations.
У каждого слова
в английском языке есть свои устойчивые словосочетания. Как в русском языке –
продолжите словосочетания:
- минеральная …
- график …
- ясное …
- застрял …
Практически уверена, что вы продолжили фразы так:
- минеральная вода
- график работы
- ясное небо
- застрял в лифте, застрял в пробке
Точно такие же словосочетания есть и у английских слов. Их
можно проверить в Collocations Dictionary– словаре словосочетаний.
Вот давайте и посмотрим на устойчивые словосочетания с
синонимами слова big.
Само слово big трогать не будем, оно практически универсальное. И
словосочетаний с ним – огромное множество:
Как и у слов large, great,
huge, major (полистайте слайдшоу):
Заметили, сколько словосочетаний у слова great? Какое-то крышесносное количество! Знаете, почему?
Потому что помимо значения «большой», у great есть еще значение «прекрасный, замечательный», а вместе с ним — частые словосочетания.
Словосочетания с синонимами big
Синонимы к слову big и словосочетания с ними во многом
пересекаются, например, слово amount сочетается со всеми синонимами big:
considerable, enormous, huge, immense, large, massive, significant, substantial, tremendous, vast |
amount |
Поэтому постараюсь выбрать те словосочетания с синонимами big, которые практически не
пересекаются с другими, ну или встречаются чаще других.
Синонимы big | Распространенные словосочетания | |
enormous | appetite, crowd, ego, pressure, workload |

|
profound | apology, belief, effect, transformation, understanding, wisdom |
|
monumental | achievement, arch, proportion, scale |
|
dramatic | contrast, change, decrease, decline, increase, growth |
Я даже не буду писать перевод всех этих словосочетаний на русский. Просто потому что в русском языке — свои устойчивые словосочетания для этих понятий. Например:
- massive amount — огромное количество
- massive blast — мощный взрыв
- massive bleeding — обильное кровотечение
или:
- grand gesture — широкий жест
- grand illusion — огромная иллюзия
- grand theft — кража века, крупная кража

Предупреждение о синонимах
Только потому, что у слова big есть более
продвинутые синонимы, не значит, что ими нужно всегда заменять слово big.
А то был у нас в колхозе случай – ученик нашел в сети список синонимов к слову little, в числе которых были:
- small
- tiny
- miniscule
Ну и, особо не разбираясь в нюансах значений и употребления,
выдал:
When I was
miniscule, I loved going to the zoo.
А
что – miniscule же круче, чем little! И неважно, что никто в здравом уме никогда не скажет When I was miniscule…))

The Donald is most definitely outside the system, yet people feel like they know him.
