例句 Examples

He let out an expletive when he hit his thumb with the hammer.

In the transcript, several expletives were removed, and the remaining “there” in “there is” functions as an expletive used to introduce the sentence.
在那份文字记录里,一些脏话被删去;而“there is”中的“there”则是用于引出句子的语法性填充词。

词源 Etymology

来自拉丁语 explētīvus,意为“用来填满的”,源于 explēre(填满、补足)。因此它一方面指“填充性的词”,另一方面在现代英语中常用来指“情绪爆发时脱口而出的词”,尤其是粗口或咒骂。
