When we are small, we are told that crying is bad. At least that's what the boys say. Girls are princesses; Although this point of view is completely vicious. People, regardless of gender, should not whimper. Real grief is one thing, and whim is another. One way or another, today we are analyzing the verb “cry”. Consider its meaning and select synonyms.
Value
There are deceptively simple words. For example, we know what it means to cry, practically. Which of us did not cry in childhood? There were tears, and then, when something bad happened or terribly unfair. But if we are asked to formulate the meaning of the verb, then we will not be able to do this without recalling the lacrimal glands and other important, but rather boring information. And most importantly, this information has nothing to do with the Russian language. But there is a solution: an appeal to an explanatory dictionary will help us, in which there are unexpectedly many meanings of the verb “cry”:
- Shedding tears, usually making mournful, inarticulate voice sounds, crying.
- For whom and for whom. In some expressions: expect someone to be destined for someone (about something unpleasant).
- About what is missing, what can not be returned, what could be, but will not be.
- Covered with drops of released moisture.
Here it is, as a matter of fact. But here it is impossible to do without explanation. Crying is an interesting verb. Its second and third meanings are colloquial and figurative. It is also important that without examples of sentences it is difficult to understand what is at stake. We obey the logic of the narrative.
