词源记忆法
本单词来源于原始印欧语seq-在史前日耳曼语中派生的sekh-。
【同源词】sight来自古英语seon,看,注视,留意,继而可能衍生自PIE*sekw,紧跟,跟随,词源同sequence,second.引申诸相关词义。
象形记忆法
两个“e”就像两只眼睛,要看见人或事物当然离不开两只眼睛。
ee 像两只眼睛,相当于汉字部首“目”: eye(眼睛)其中两个e像是一双眼,而y正好是鼻子。无独有偶,单词see 看见 meet 遇见 seem 看起来像 peep偷看 peer盯着 seek 寻觅 sleep 睡 asleep 睡着了 peek 窥视 leer 瞟,媚眼 weep哭泣 greedy 觊觎 eye中的y作为鼻子匀称适中, 而ele phant (大象)中的鼻子 L 长且高高举起。
