1. 非常寶貴的;極為有用的 If you describe something as invaluable, you mean that it is extremely useful.
e.g. I was able to gain invaluable experience over that year... 在那一年里我有幸獲得了非常寶貴的經(jīng)驗。 e.g. The research should prove invaluable in the study of linguistics... 該調查研究在語(yǔ)言學(xué)研究領(lǐng)域的重要性應該會(huì )得到證實(shí)。
Be careful not to confuse the words invaluable, priceless and worthless. Something which is invaluable is very useful indeed. …it has a spelling checker, which is invaluable if you are dyslexic. Something which is priceless is so precious that it is difficult to give it a value. …priceless masterpieces by Canova and Bernini. In contrast, something that is worthless is of very little value. I'm afraid your shares are now worthless. 切勿混淆 invaluable, priceless 與 worthless。invaluable 表示確實(shí)非常有用, 例如:it has a spelling checker, which is invaluable if you are dyslexic (它有一個(gè)拼寫(xiě)檢查程序,對有誦讀困難的人會(huì )大有用處)。 priceless 表示非常珍貴,無(wú)法衡量其價(jià)值:priceless masterpieces by Canova and Bernini (卡諾瓦和貝爾尼尼的無(wú)價(jià)杰作)。與之相對, worthless 表示沒(méi)有什么價(jià)值。例如:I'm afraid your shares are now worthless (恐怕你的股票現在一文不值了)。
