专业提示

区分 'keep still' 与 'be quiet'

两者都可表示安静,但 'keep still' 更强调身体的静止(如不晃动),而 'be quiet' 侧重于不发出声音。例如:'Keep still while I adjust your tie'(调整领带时请保持不动)vs. 'Be quiet, the baby is sleeping'(请安静,宝宝在睡觉)。

黄金法则

使用场景

在需要精确动作或避免干扰的场景(如拍照、医疗操作、测量)使用 'keep still'。若仅需安静而不涉及动作,使用 'be quiet' 或 'keep silent'。

词源

'Keep' 源自古英语 'cepan'(抓住、保持),'still' 源自古英语 'stil'(静止的)。组合词 'keep still' 起源于16世纪,最初用于描述保持身体静止状态。

用法说明

1. 常用于口语或书面指令,语气较为温和。 2. 在医疗或摄影场景中,通常用于确保安全或拍摄清晰。 3. 可单独使用(如 'Keep still!')或接动词短语(如 'keep still while...')。
