A backhanded compliment is a compliment on its appearance, but its implication meaning may be an insult. The reason why speakers do not adopt direct insult instead of using this kind of ambiguous expression is that backhanded compliments can serve two main social functions such as: being humor and acting as a face-saving strategy to mute the meaning of insult.展开更多

目的 建立急性脑损伤后微量脑脊液谷氨酸浓度测定方法。方法 采用邻苯二甲醛柱前衍生，梯度高效液相色谱荧光检测法测定急性脑损伤小鼠脑脊液中谷氨酸（glutamate，GLu）含量。结果谷氨酸的平均加样回收率为84．26％～125．6％（n=3）...目的 建立急性脑损伤后微量脑脊液谷氨酸浓度测定方法。方法 采用邻苯二甲醛柱前衍生，梯度高效液相色谱荧光检测法测定急性脑损伤小鼠脑脊液中谷氨酸（glutamate，GLu）含量。结果谷氨酸的平均加样回收率为84．26％～125．6％（n=3），日内相对标准偏差（relative standard deviation，RSD）均小于4．94％（n=3），日间相对标准偏差（relative standard deviation，RSD）均小于0．78％（n=3）。急性脑损伤后6h小鼠脑脊液谷氨酸含量相对于假手术组有明显升高（P〈0．01）。结论 本方法准确、快速，可用于微量脑脊液谷氨酸含量的测定。展开更多
文摘The backhanded compliment is a special language phenomenon. A backhanded compliment is a compliment on its appearance, but its implication meaning may be an insult. The reason why speakers do not adopt direct insult instead of using this kind of ambiguous expression is that backhanded compliments can serve two main social functions such as: being humor and acting as a face-saving strategy to mute the meaning of insult.
