 0016-Add affix annex append attach 

版权声明

Add, the most general word in this group, means to join or unite so as to increase the importance, size, quantity or scope of something: to add a new line of merchandise to one’s goods; to add a new wing to a building; to add five new salesmen to a staff; to add a touch of levity to an otherwise solemn speed. 

Add是这组词汇中最常用的,表示通过结合或者混合以便增加事物的重要性,尺寸,数量,范围等。例如:to add a new line of merchandise to one’s goods(增加一个新的商品线到某人的产品中); to add a new wing to a building(为大厦新建一个新的附楼); to add five new salesmen to a staff(员工里增加5个销售人员); to add a touch of levity to an otherwise solemn speed(庄严中添加一丝丝轻佻). 

Attach, as here considered, means to connect or join on as a part, and is close in some contexts to append: to attach a stipulation to a contract; to append a query to a manuscript. Append emphasizes that the addition is subordinate or minor in relation to the original work. Both words are formal, but attach has a legalistic ring to it lacking in append: to attach a rider to a bill; to append a footnote. Note that add could be used in place of wither of these words, but would make the tone less formal and therefore less impressive. 

Attach这里意思是作为一个部分连接或者结合到一个整体,在某些地方与append意思接近,例如:to attach a stipulation to a contract(附加一个条款到合同中); to append a query to a manuscript(添加一条质疑到手稿中).Append(追加)强调添加的事物相对于被追加事物来说是次要的。这两个词都是正式的用法,但是attach比append更有法律用语的意味。例如:to attach a rider to a bill(添加一个条款到法案中); to append a footnote(追加一个脚注).

Affix means to fix or attach to: to affix a seal to a document. Affix is appropriate only in very formal contexts, as in the description of state affairs: The Govenor-General affixed his signature to the bill regulating assisted immigration.

Affix表示修复或者附加,例如:to affix a seal to a document(给文件添加一个封条).Affix仅用于非常正式的上下文中,比如用于描述国家事务:The Govenor-General affixed his signature to the bill regulating assisted immigration(Govenor-General追加了他的签名到监管辅助移民的法案中).

Annex means to add something as a supplement. It implies not only that the addition is a subordinate part, but often that the addition remains distinct: to annex an adjoining territory; to annex a building to an older one. 

Annex表示添加事物作为一种补充.通常暗示新增部分是次要的,但是新增部分通常是可区分的.例如:to annex an adjoining territory(吞并邻国领土); to annex a building to an older one(为一个建筑新建一个副楼).
