英英單字圖文記憶(063) - overlook

英英單字圖文記憶(063)

overlook  [͵ovɚˋlʊk]

If a building or window overlooks a place, you can see the place clearly from the building or window.

分解:前綴over = 之上;字根look = look
分析:在上面看” = 俯瞰。從遠距離觀察當然不清楚,故引伸為 疏忽

A dog is sitting high on a hill overlooking the terraced.
一隻狗高高地坐在可以俯瞰梯田的小山上。
My calculation was wrong because I overlooked one tiny point.
由於我忽略了一個細微之處,我的計算錯了
