point at

读音:英 [ˈpɔɪnt æt];美 [ˈpɔɪnt æt]

出处:“point” 源自古法语 “pointe”,最初表示 “尖端”,后来衍生出 “指向” 等含义;“at” 源自古英语 “æt”,表示 “在(某一地点、时间等)”。“point at” 这个短语结合了两者的意义,很早就用于描述用手指或其他物体指向某个具体对象的动作,在英语中使用历史较为悠久。

意思:

指向;指着。通常用于描述用手指或类似物体直接对准某人或某物,引起他人对该对象的注意。

针对;指责。在特定语境下,可表示话语、行为等是针对某人或某事,带有一定负面或批评意味。

用法:

是一个动词短语,后面接要指向或针对的对象,可以是人、物或某个具体的位置。

当表示“指向”时,强调动作的直接性和明确性;表示“针对”时,更侧重于表达意图或目的。
