易混淆词
complement
EN: 'Complement' (with 'e') means something that completes or enhances something else; 'compliment' (with 'i') means an expression of praise or admiration.
zh: 'Complement'(含'e')指能完善或增强某事物的东西;'compliment'(含'i')指赞美或钦佩的表达。
拼写提示
EN: The most common error is confusing 'compliment' (praise, with 'i') with 'complement' (something that completes, with 'e'). Mnemonic: 'I' like compliments; 'E' completes things.
zh: 最常见的错误是将'compliment'(赞美,含'i')与'complement'(完善之物,含'e')混淆。记忆口诀:'I'喜欢赞美;'E'完善事物。
