reverse is mostly used in more formal contexts than opposite and has a narrower range of collocates. opposite can describe both the nature of sth or its direction, in either a physical or abstract sense. reverse only describes the direction of sth, usually in a physical sense. when two people or things travel in opposite directions they can either start from the same place and move away from each other, or start from different places and travel towards each other. if you travel in the reverse direction you usually travel over the same ground, but start from the other end.与 opposite 相比，reverse 主要用于较正式的语境，搭配词的范围较窄。opposite 既可描述事物的性质，也可描述方向，表示实际或抽象的意义均可。reverse 只描述事物的方向，通常表示实际意义。travel in opposite directions 既可指两个人或物体从同一地点背向而行，也可指从不同地点相向而行。travel in the reverse direction 通常指走同一条路，但从另一端出发◆i watched them leave and then drove off in the opposite direction.我目送他们离开，然后开车向相反的方向驶去。◆he hit a truck travelling in the opposite direction.他撞上了一辆迎面驶来的卡车。◆one year later she made the same journey in the reverse direction.一年以后她从相反的方向出发重游了那条路线。people or things on opposite sides of an area or object usually face each other; reverse sides of an object are back to back, facing away from each other. * opposite side 通常指对面； reverse side 指背面、反面◆he waved at me from the opposite side of the road.他在马路对面向我招手。◆on the reverse side of the medal is a coat of arms.奖牌的背面是盾徽。reverse [transitive] (rather formal) to change a previous decision, law or policy to the opposite one撤销，废除（决定、法律或政策）◆the policy is likely to be reversed if there is a change of government.如果政府改组，这项政策很可能被废除。reverse [transitive] to exchange the positions or functions of two people or things交换（位置或功能）◆it felt as if we had reversed our roles of parent and child.我们之间家长与孩子的关系好像倒过来了。◆she used to work for me, but our situations are now reversed.过去她为我工作，而现在我们的地位对调了。ⓘ in this meaning, reverse collocates with roles, situations and positions.表达此义时，reverse 与 roles、situations 和 positions 搭配。 ➡ see also reversal → exchange noun reverse [transitive] (rather formal, especially written) to change sth completely so that it is the opposite of what it was before颠倒；使逆转；使完全相反◆the government has failed to reverse the economic decline.政府未能扭转经济滑坡的趋势。◆it is sometimes possible to arrest or reverse the disease.有时可以阻止病情发展或使病情彻底好转。ⓘ reverse is most often used in texts relating to business and economics, especially when talking about changing the direction of a process or development; collocates include decline, trend, direction, process and situation. * reverse 最常用于与商业和经济有关的文字中，尤指改变进程或发展的方向，搭配词有 decline、trend、direction、process 和 situation。 ➡ see also reversal → revolution 2 reverse¹/rɪˈvɜ:s ||; rɪˈvɝs/verb1.
