单词 endurance
释义
endurance
(once / 652 pages)
n

Endurance is the power to withstand something challenging. If you decide to run a marathon, you will need lots of endurance to run over 26 miles.
The noun endurance contains endure means "suffer or undergo" and the suffix -ance means "the state of." It can be used to describe the physical strength to keep going, as in a marathon or giving birth, but it can also be used when discussing a exhausting mental situation or stressful time — the endurance to bounce back from heartbreak, perhaps.
WORD FAMILY
endurance: endurances+/endurable: endurably, unendurable/endure: endurable, endurance, endured, endures, enduring/enduring: enduringly, enduringness/unendurable: unendurably
