frequent is the more common of these words in this meaning; however, regular is used more often in more active examples, when you are talking about people doing things, rather than things that happen.表达此义较常用 frequent。不过，regular 更常用于比较主动、积极的情况，指人们经常主动做的事，而非经常发生的事◆take frequent exercise. regular also means 'happening at fixed intervals' and sometimes it may not be clear which meaning is intended: a regular bus service may mean frequent buses and/or buses at the same time every day or hour. * regular 亦可表示有规律的、定时的，有时究竟指哪个意思并不清楚。a regular bus service 既可指频繁往来的班车，又可指定时发车的班车。 ➡ see also the entry for regular另见 regular 条■ persistent /pəsɪstənt; name pərsɪstənt/ repeated often, in a way that is annoying and cannot be stopped无休止的；反复出现的；没完没了的◆the most common symptom is a persistent cough.最普遍的症状是持续不断的咳嗽。◆he resigned over persistent rumours of his part in the scandal.一直有传言称他卷入了那桩丑闻，他因而辞职。▸ persistently adverb◆a prison for juveniles who persistently reoffend关押少年惯犯的监狱■ perpetual /pəpetʃuəl; name pərpetʃuəl/ [usually before noun] (especially written) repeated very often, in a way that is annoying一再出现的；无尽无休的；没完没了的◆the perpetual interruptions made conversation difficult.不断的打扰让谈话难以继续下去。◆lack of time is a perpetual problem for nurses on the ward.对在病房工作的护士来说，时间不够是个长期问题。▸ perpetually adverb◆he had a miserable face and long red nose, which he was perpetually wiping.■ continual [only before noun] repeated very often, especially in a way that is annoying（尤指令人厌烦地）一再出现的，频繁的◆there were continual arguments because he felt he was being treated unfairly.他觉得自己受到了不公正的对待，就没完没了地跟人争吵。◆he seemed to need continual reassurance.他似乎需要得到不断的宽慰。▸ continually adverb◆people were continually tripping over the cable.不断有人被那条电缆绊倒。■ continuous continual（尤指令人厌烦地）一再出现的，频繁的◆the soldiers suffered continuous attacks for four days.那些士兵连续四天遭到了攻击。◆the company said the reasons for closure were poor margins and continuous losses.该公司称倒闭的原因是利润微薄和持续亏损。note 辨析 persistent, perpetual, continual or continuous?in some cases you can use any of these words.在有些情况下这四个词可以通用◆a persistent / perpetual / continual / continuous problem反复出现的问题 persistent is used more in factual writing and reporting, to talk about medical problems or problems in society. perpetual is used more in personal and imaginative writing and to talk about annoying personal habits or problems. continual and continuous are generally less frequent in this meaning, but are often preferred in spoken english and less formal contexts. all these words also have the meaning 'continuing for a long time without stopping'; continuous is more frequent in that meaning, and some people think it should not be used to mean 'repeated many times', but in fact it often is. * persistent 多用于陈述事实，描述医学或社会问题。perpetual 多用于个人化和虚构的文字，指个人习惯或问题令人厌烦的。continual 和 continuous 一般较少用于此义，但经常用于口语和不太正式的语境中。所有这些词亦另含“接连不断的、连续的”之义，continuous 较常用于此义。有些人认为 continuous 不应表示“多次重复的、频繁的”之义，但事实上这个词常常这样用。 ➡ see also the entry for continuous另见 continuous 条■ habitual /həbɪtʃuəl/ (of an action) done often, especially in a way that is annoying or difficult to stop（行为）没完没了的，养成恶习的，上瘾的◆the mechanic had been dismissed for habitual lateness.这名技工因老是迟到已被解雇。 ➡ see also habit → habit , habitually → often frequenthappening often; doing sth often频繁的；经常发生的；经常做某事的◆there is a frequent bus service into town.开往市区的公共汽车班次频密。◆power failures are frequent occurrences in the city.这个城市经常停电。◆his calls became less frequent.他打电话的次数减少了。◆the case was reviewed at frequent intervals.此案经过了频繁的复查。◆he was a frequent guest at the palace.他是王宫的常客。opp infrequent → rare , occasional → occasional ➡ see also frequently → often frequent¹/ˈfri:kwənt ||; ˈfrikwənt/adj happening often 频繁的: ◇his visits became less frequent. 他的来访次数越来越少。 [opp] infrequent 反义词为infrequent➔frequently advfrequent²/friˈkwent ||; frɪˈkwɛnt/verb [t] (formal 正式) to go to a place often 常到（某地方）: ◇he spent most of his evenings in paris frequenting bars and clubs. 他在巴黎的时候，晚上大都泡在酒吧或夜总会里。 frequentsee ⇨ often 4☞ frequent¹☞ frequent² |
