dictate v.
从原意派生出一些看起来很不相同的转义。原意是“口授(让别人书面记下来)”。
I dictated my order over the phone.
我透过电话口述了命令。
但是经过转义,成了“强加某事物(于某人)”或“指挥”、“摆布”。
dictate rules to the workers
向工人们定下规则
She refused to be dictated to by anyone.
她不肯听从任何人的指挥。
由于dictate有“(不容分说地)决定”的意思,所以也可以用来表示“大权在握,说一不二”,因此,派生的名词dictator就是“独裁者”,dictatorship就是“独裁”或“专政”。
