12、字不少：有 weep，wail，sob，whimper，keen，bowl，howl，blubber等。其中与“cry”含义最相近的要算是“weep”了。 weep是因(1)悲痛或悲哀而(2)流泪。换句话说“weep”是从心底发出来“声泪俱下”的恸哭。weep常用于写作，并指流泪多于哭声，也就是重“泪”而不重“声”；cry则是相反，是重“声”而不重“泪”。wail是指由于悲伤或哀痛而尖声地哭哭啼啼，或哭个不停： The woman wailed with sorrow. 那妇人悲凄地哭个不停。“哭哭啼啼”还有一个字 whimper。whimper与wail的不同之处在于wail是用尖锐的声音而

I cant hear what youre saying. 不要哭成那样，我听不清楚你在说什么！blubber还有“(vi.)哭肿眼”及“(vi.)哭诉”之意。最后在此列举其
