释义
v.
To oppose or fight against something

v.

忍住,抗拒(诱惑)
词根拆分
词根派生re-(向后、对着)+ sist(来自 sistere,「立定」)= 「立着对抗」。双脚扎稳、拒绝被推动——这一个画面就涵盖了抵抗军队、抵御高温、忍住不吃一块蛋糕。
词根 st 还连着 376 个词为什么是这个意思
原 pos 标了 v. + n.,但 resist 只作动词(名词是 resistance / 电阻 resistor)。注意「立得稳」这一画面如何铺开:物理上(墙体抵御压力)、社会上(公民抵制法律)、个人上(我抵挡不住巧克力)。每一种情况都有东西在推,而你站住了脚。
