3 -graceful o gracious?-
Nota d'usoGraceful e gracious, e i loro avverbi gracefully e graciously, vengono a volte confusi dai madrelingua stessi, ma hanno significati ben diversi. Graceful significa “aggraziato” nella forma, nel movimento o nell'espressione; per esempio a graceful gesture, un gesto aggraziato; she danced gracefully, danzò con grazia. Gracious si usa, invece, per indicare qualcosa o qualcuno che dimostra gentilezza, cortesia o compassione: a gracious act, un atto clemente; oppure si usa in riferimento al buon gusto e all'eleganza: gracious living, uno stile di vita agiato e raffinato. Inoltre, gracious è legato a formule ed espressioni cerimoniose e formali, e può implicare una sfumatura paternalistica o condiscendente: We were honoured by his gracious presence, siamo stati onorati dalla sua cortese presenza; si usa anche in esclamazioni quali Goodness gracious me! e Good gracious!, accipicchia, perbacco! -
