英语单词 memento
英美音标 英 [mə'mentəʊ] 美 [mə'mentoʊ]
中文释义 n.纪念品
英语例句 (1) He kept a lock of her hair as a memento.
(2) My friend gave me his picture as a memento before going away.
中文例句 (1) 他保留着她的一束头发作纪念。
(2) 我的朋友在离别前给我一张照片留作纪念品。
vocabulary简明 A memento is a keepsake of something you want to remember. You may keep photographs as a memento of a great family reunion — except for that one photo where Aunt Bonnie is wearing the lampshade and singing "Respect." No one wants to remember that!
vocabulary扩展 Memento is a Latin imperative that ordered people to "Remember!" People love to keep mementos from all sorts of things, including weddings, births, concerts, trips, holidays, and even school. You should be careful not to bore people with your mementos, however. Not everyone wants to see the ribbon you wore in your hair at the homecoming game, and your 8,000 pictures of your trip to Paris (Illinois, not the one in France) might be a bit over the top.
