这个词主要由于几个相关短语而流行的。
这几个短语分别是: a sense of (responsibility, humor...)---有幽默感等, make sense/not make any sense,有意义,没意义(所以我说别老用meaningless,不是人家听不懂,那很中式的)。
几个例句:
1、我很喜欢他。他很有幽默感。
Chinglish: I very like him. He is very humorous.
Revision: I like him very much. He has a good sense of humor.
2、我知道,不过有的地方没什么意义。
Chinglish: I know, but it’s meaningless in some places.
Revision: I know, but again at some point it doesn’t make any sense.
3、什么?至少六周?这样做有什么意义呢?
What? at least 6 weeks? Does it make any sense?(或what’s your point?)
