用法筆記

This is not a separate meaning of 'felt' — it is the past tense and past participle of the verb 'feel'. Use this form any time you talk about a feeling, emotion, or physical sensation that occurred in the past. The simple past (e.g. 'She felt happy') describes a completed past event; the past participle (e.g. 'She has felt happy') is used in perfect tenses and passive structures.

常見錯誤

I feeled happy yesterday.
I felt happy yesterday.
'feel' is irregular; its past form is 'felt', not 'feeled'.

釋義

製氈

將羊毛等纖維加壓濕熱製成氈,或以氈覆蓋

to press wool, hair, or synthetic fibres together using moisture, heat, and pressure so that they become a thick, soft fabric; or to attach such fabric as a layer over a surface.

例句

Lien learned how to felt wool by rubbing the wet fibres between her hands.

transitive: felt + wool (material as object)

The woollen scarf from Tariq's grandmother felted into a stiff mess after a hot wash.

Tariq 的祖母織的羊毛圍巾經過熱水洗滌後氈化成了一團硬塊。

intransitive: fibres felt together

常見搭配
  • felt wool
  • felt fibres
  • felt together
  • felt a surface with [material]
同義詞
  • mat

    focuses on fibres tangling together, less specific to the felting process

  • compress

    more general (pressing anything), lacks the moisture/heat aspect of felting

  • full

    technical term in textile manufacturing for shrinking and thickening wool fabric through moisture and heat

反義詞
  • unravel

    opposite action — fibres separating instead of matting together

文法句型

felt + material (transitive)

felt + object + with + material (cover with felt)

material + felts (intransitive, becomes felt)

用法筆記

When transitive, the object is either the fibre being processed ('felt the wool') or the surface being covered ('felt the roof'). When intransitive, the fibres themselves are the subject, describing the natural matting process ('the wool felts easily').

常見錯誤

She felted her hair into a hat.
She felted wool into a hat.
the object must be the raw fibre, not the person; 'felted' on a person means 'felt' (past tense of 'feel') and is spelled the same but is a different word.
