这些幸福满满的词语,总有一个温暖你的心

1. happiness 幸福;快乐;适当

这是最常用的词啦,分享两个作文里可以用到的句子吧。

Happiness doesn't always go with money.
幸福未必伴随金钱而来。
Happiness consists in trying to do one's duty.
幸福在于履行自己的责任。
2. bliss 极乐,狂喜;天赐之福

Lying on a sunny beach is my idea of sheer bliss.
我认为躺在沙滩上晒太阳是最大的幸福。
wedded/domestic bliss
婚姻/家庭生活的幸福
bliss也可以作动词,翻译成“欣喜若狂,狂喜,乐不可支”。

常见搭配有:bliss (sb) out,来个例句:

I like to go off on my own - to sit back and bliss out in a darkened movie theater.
我喜欢独自外出??舒服地坐在漆黑的电影院里,乐在其中。
要注意的是,bliss和bless长的相似,但是词性和意思很不相同。

bless的意思是“祝福;使神圣”,是及物动词;bliss意为“快乐”或“幸福”,是名词。

3. blessedness 幸福;福音

blessed是形容词,表示“神圣的;有福的;愉快的”。blessedness就看作是blessed的名词形式。

single blessedness常用来开玩笑,形容独身、未婚之福,比如:

live in single blessedness
过单身生活
而我们中文里所说的“福气”,我觉得就可以用blessing表示。这个单词的意思是“幸事;喜事”。

His illness was a blessing in disguise, because he afterwards married his nurse.
他生病倒是因祸得福,因为后来他和他的护士结了婚。
4. eudaemonia 幸福

这个词指因理性而积极生活所带来的幸福,尤指亚里士多德哲学中的理性健康生活。

How do you think that kind of eudaemonia life?
你认为怎么样才算幸福的生活?
5. euphoria 幸福愉快感

They were in a state of euphoria for days after they won the prize.
获奖之后一连几天他们都处于亢奋状态。
《哈利?波特》里的欢欣剂就翻译成了Elixir to Induce Euphoria。带有阳光般金黄色的欢欣剂会给服用它的人一种幸福感。

elixir是一种通常为液体的万灵药,长生不老药。

6. felicity 幸福,幸运,快乐

这是一个偏文学性的词语,比如:

joy and felicity
快乐和幸福
Felicity is easily found, but hard to be kept.
找到幸福容易,维持幸福困难。
felicity也可以翻译成“恰当的语句;精妙的评论”,比如:

Her article contained one or two verbal felicities that will stay in my mind for years.
她的文章中有一两处精妙之语,会令我多年难以忘怀。
7. weal 福利;幸福

for weal and woe
无论在顺境或逆境;无论是祸是福
之前上热搜的最美翻译官张璐就把“苟利国家生死以,岂因祸福避趋之”这句话翻译为:

I shall dedicate myself to the interests of the country in life and death irrespective of personal weal and woe.

8. welfare 福利;福利事业;幸福

My principal concern is my family's welfare.
我至为关心的是我一家的幸福。
