“差”强人意
最近又看到有网友误用“差强人意”。其实,误用是常有的事,反而是,正确使用的没见过几个。在中国的成语里边,误用率最高的,我想就是它了吧,而且是意思完全相反。
我曾经也想当然过,从字面上看,似乎意思再明白不过,“差”者,“欠缺”也,“好”之反义,于是乎,顺理成章地理解为“不能令人满意”。能发现错误是拜一次智商测试所赐。那是上初中时的事了,逛书店时发现一本测智商的小册子,是个译本,首页介绍吹嘘测试结果相当准确,而我当时正是对自己脑子情况不确定的年龄,毫不犹豫就买了。某个周日下午,关上房门,闹钟摆在面前,精神紧张地完全按要求测了一回。最后,一看测试结果,简批“差强人意”,顿时心灰意冷,差点看不下去,但看具体评述似乎又不至于不堪。由于“差强人意”的评语太过刺眼,太让我不甘心,翻出成语小词典,看到“令人满意”的解释时,我几乎不相信自己的眼睛,差点以为词典印错,狂翻了别的词典,一样的解释,我才相信。心里宽慰了不少,虽然不是梦想中的天赋异秉大智大慧,但还算有点可以沾沾自喜的小聪明。这次测智商的收获就是知道了差强人意的正确含义,并牢记于心,同时有种条件反射,一旦见到误用,立刻心生忿忿,似乎该词与我的个人评价紧密相关。
刚刚在Google输入“差强人意”,居然第一条就是它的“洗冤录”。作者引经据典,原来古文中的“差”可作“殊、甚”解,与现代文中的“差”意思相背嘛,哎~博大精深的国文啊!
但是!鲁迅大师说,世上本没有路,走的人多了,才便有了路。大师还叹息说,众口铄金,积毁销骨。说的人多了,会不会,有一天“差强人意”真的变成了“不能令人满意”?!

It’s truly very difficult in this active life to listen news on Television, therefore
I just use the web for that reason, and obtain the newest news.
