英语词汇“hale”的英英意思、用法、释义、翻译、读音、例句、短语、词组-英语词典

1adj 2v

If you're hale, you’re strong and in good health. Think "hale and hearty," the well-known phrase to describe someone who can lift a piano or work ten hours in a field without blinking an eye.

Don't confuse hale with hail. Hale, again, is healthy. Hail is for hailing a cab, or hailing to Caesar, and it also means a kind of precipitation where frozen ice balls pour down from the sky. Hale is a word that conjures up country folk, farming stock, people who swear that they haven’t had to go to a doctor in ten years because they sleep with the windows open 365 days a year.

CHOOSE YOUR WORDS

hale / hail

Hale describes someone hearty and healthy. Rarr. All hail the next word! To hail is to greet enthusiastically. And when it hails, ice falls from the sky and hits those hale people on the head.

Hale means sturdy, the kind of people a certain prince wants at his masquerade party. In Edgar Allan Poe's "Masque of the Red Death," Prince Prospero invites 1,000 of his "hale and light-hearted" besties to his castle to cheat death. We know how that goes! These days the word hale often describes healthy older people, but anyone healthy can be hale, too. Observe:

"All these hale, silver-haired seniors, walking or jogging or cycling past the house." (New Yorker)

"Along with physical activity, your brain needs mental stimulation to stay hale and fit." (Time)

A less common use of hale is "to drag or force slowly," as in this example:

"She haled him into their special parlor, took his hat away from him, pulled out the most comfortable chair." (Charlotte Perkins Gilman)

Hail, on the other hand, has the "i" for "ice," but it's also a verb — raise your arm and hail a cab, hail the queen, or hail a great success. Hail means to call attention to something. Hail the following examples!

"Beyoncé has hailed Jackson's influence in the past, saying 'Michael Jackson changed me, and helped me to become the artist I am.'" (BBC)

"Americans have come to rely on their smartphones to help them do seemingly everything, like hailing a taxi and comparing prices of dog food." (New York Times)

Hail also means where you're from:

"Sanders hails from a neighboring state." (MSNBC)

To be hale is to be healthy. To hail is to call attention to a taxi or a king. Hail also has that "i" for ice!
