单词 short-lived
释义
short-lived (shôrtlīvd, -lĭvd)
adj.
Living or lasting only a short time; ephemeral.

[SHORT + (LONG)-LIVED.]

Usage Note: The pronunciation (-līvd) is etymologically correct since the compound is derived from the noun life, rather than from the verb live. But the pronunciation (-lĭvd) is by now so common that it cannot be considered an error. In our 2005 survey, 90 percent of the Usage Panel found (-lĭvd) acceptable and 75 percent found (-līvd) acceptable.
