decided 音标拼音: [dɪs'ɑɪdɪd] a. 决定了的,坚决的;明显的,明确的 决定了的,坚决的;明显的,明确的 decided adj 1: recognizable; marked; "noticed a distinct improvement"; "at a distinct (or decided) disadvantage" [synonym: {distinct}, {decided}] Decided \De*cid"ed\, a. 1. Free from ambiguity; unequivocal; unmistakable; unquestionable; clear; evident; as, a decided advantage. "A more decided taste for science." --Prescott. [1913 Webster] 2. Free from doubt or wavering; determined; of fixed purpose; fully settled; positive; resolute; as, a decided opinion or purpose. Syn: {Decided}, {Decisive}. Usage: We call a thing decisive when it has the power or quality of deciding; as, a decisive battle; we speak of it as decided when it is so fully settled as to leave no room for doubt; as, a decided preference, a decided aversion. Hence, a decided victory is one about which there is no question; a decisive victory is one which ends the contest. Decisive is applied only to things; as, a decisive sentence, a decisive decree, a decisive judgment. Decided is applied equally to persons and things. Thus we speak of a man as decided in his whole of conduct; and as having a decided disgust, or a decided reluctance, to certain measures.
