英语词组“grow out of”的意思是
grow out of 表示某种情况是随着时间自然发展而成的,而不是刻意造成的。例如,“He grew out of the juvenile delinquent phase he used to commit when he was younger”。意思是在青少年时期逐渐不再干他小时候的行为偏差,可能是自己的思想和经验发生了改变导致的。
读音
"grow out of" 这个词组的发音可以用英语语音中正常的上升元音音调和发成的英美非常类似的词语开头发音。发音如下:英式音标为 /g(r)oʊtˈaʊ/,美式音标为 /ɡroʊ tu/。
注意,“out” 是在辅音之后发成一个很短促的短音。在加入短语时可以根据意思适当的延长或调整。例如: You grew out of this dress. (你穿不下这件裙子了)。
