约旦电视台11月13日播放了安曼自杀袭击女“人弹”里沙维作供的内容,据悉,里沙维的丈夫穿了装满炸药的腰带,并在其妻子的身上绑了一个炸弹。理沙维试图引爆炸弹,幸运的是炸弹没有爆炸。

请看外电报道:An Iraqi woman confessed on Jordanian state television Sunday that she tried to blow herself up along with her husband during a hotel wedding reception last week, saying that the explosives concealed1 under her denim2 dress failed to detonate.

文中的detonate和explode的意思相似,表示“爆炸”,如,The dynamite3 detonated.(炸药爆炸了。)作及物动词用时,detonate可指“引爆”,用英文可解释为to cause to explode,比如,to detonate an atomic device(引爆一个原子装置)。Detonate的名词形式是detonation。

提醒一句:不要将detonation和denotation混淆了哦。
