单词是学习英语的基石,但是“背单词”是很多英语学习者最头疼的事情,英文单词背了忘,忘了背,翻来覆去效果还不好!
实际上,就像我们汉字有“偏旁部首”一样,英语也有类似的“词根词缀”,**了英语构词规律,英语单词记忆就轻松多了!
incumbent =in+cumb+ent
下面我来看英语单词:incumbent /ɪnˈkʌmbənt/
adj. 在职的,现任的;职责所在的,义不容辞的;(**)占市场份额大的 ,n. 在职者,现任**;教区牧师,领圣俸者
incumbent=in+cumb+ent
前缀In-,向内,内部,
词根cumb=to lie down, 躺下,后缀ent, 名词后缀,像:different, department 等等。
-ent , 名称后缀
整个incumbent 就是“躺在位置上的人”,引申为: 在职的, 义不容辞的
1、语义

In general, incumbents have a 94% chance of being reelected, 通常现任**有94%的几率再次当选。
