[請益] ad hoc

[williamppt (夏夜晚風)]

請問ad hoc 這個字的使用時機?

我查字典裡面寫他的翻譯是"特別的"

但是例句看不懂為何要這樣用:

例如 ad hoc activities 為何不寫specific activities?

→ kaifrankwind: d in advance, but is done or formed only because
→ kaifrankwind:  a particular situation has made it necessary.
→ kaifrankwind: "特別的"不夠精確 應是"特別設立的" specific較像是
→ kaifrankwind: 明確的
→ kaifrankwind: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hoc_hypothesis
推 priv: 因為 ad hoc 有「臨時」的味道在裡面
→ priv: 和 special 或 specific 都有段差距
推 gofigure: 即興的意思
推 priv: 即興是 ad-lib
推 gofigure: 所以你的意思是說 ad hoc 沒有即興的意思?
→ kaifrankwind: http://ppt.cc/RYVL MW是有把ad lib跟ad hoc列為同
→ kaifrankwind: 義詞啦 但我還是覺得它們原意有差距 不會想混用
