名词解释:女婿,或简称婿,是一种称谓,一般指女儿的丈夫,有时“婿”也能指丈夫。在中华文化中,女婿为半子,意指半个儿子,有时亦可直接称儿子。同时,于日常生活中谦称时可称作小婿,“贤婿”则是对女婿客气的称呼。你知道怎么用英语表达吗?

【讲解】

文中的son-in-law就是“女婿”的意思,其复数形式为sons-in-law。与之相关的词汇还有daughter-in-law(媳妇)、father-in-law(岳父;公公)、mother-in-law(岳母;婆婆)等。in-law常用于口语,复数为in-laws,解释为“姻亲”,特别是指公公婆婆、岳父岳母。

此外,文中的Nobel Prize for chemistry解释为“诺贝尔化学奖”,又如Nobel Prize for literature,意为“诺贝尔文学奖”。
