同義詞
  • display

    broader; works for casual settings too, not just public exhibitions

  • showcase

    stronger; implies the item is the centrepiece, often for promotion

文法句型

exhibit + object

be exhibited (passive)

用法筆記

Object is usually a physical artwork, craft, or product; the verb implies a deliberate public-viewing setting (gallery, fair, museum) rather than casual display in a home. Distinguish from sense 2, which takes an abstract quality as object.

常見錯誤

I exhibited the photos to my friends at home.
I showed the photos to my friends at home.
💡'exhibit' needs a public venue; for casual showing, use 'show'.

釋義

exhibit + symptoms (medical register)

同義詞
  • display

    near-equivalent here, slightly less formal

  • demonstrate

    stronger; suggests deliberate proof through action

  • manifest

    very formal; often used for symptoms or hidden qualities becoming visible

反義詞
  • conceal

    deliberately hide a quality or feeling

  • suppress

    hold back the outward expression of an emotion

文法句型

exhibit + abstract noun (signs / symptoms / behaviour)

用法筆記

Object must be an abstract quality, emotion, symptom, or behaviour — not a physical thing. More formal than 'show'; common in scientific, medical, and critical writing. Distinguish from sense 1 by the type of object: physical artwork vs abstract trait.

常見錯誤

The patient exhibited a sore throat.
The patient exhibited the symptoms of a sore throat.
💡'exhibit' takes the signs of a condition, not the condition itself.
She exhibited her happiness loudly.
She showed her happiness loudly.
💡for everyday emotional display, 'show' sounds more natural than the formal 'exhibit'.
