含义详解

本义指在战斗或竞赛中未被击败，强调结果上的胜利记录。引申义可用于比喻任何领域中保持不败记录，如事业、辩论等。核心是“未曾输过”，不强调过程是否艰难，只强调结果。

词源解析

由前缀un-（不）加defeated（被击败的）构成。defeated源自拉丁语deficere（失败，使失望），经古法语defait。记忆时拆解为un+defeat+ed，即“未被击败的”。

适用语境

常用于新闻报道（体育赛事、选举）、体育解说、军事语境，以及正式写作中描述记录。日常口语中较少使用，语气中性，带有褒义。在学术写作中可能用于描述历史战役或团队表现。

用法须知

形容词，通常作表语或定语。作表语时后接介词短语（如in a game）。无比较级或最高级。易错点：与undefeatable（不可击败的）混淆，后者强调能力。

相似词辨析

undefeated强调结果，unbeaten同义但更口语化，常指体育记录；invincible强调不可被击败的能力，语义更强；unconquered侧重征服未发生，用于军事或比喻。选择时根据语境侧重结果或能力。

常见误区

语域中性，褒义。常用搭配有remain undefeated、undefeated season等。无常见误用，但注意与undefeated的拼写，勿漏第二e。

• remain undefeated
• undefeated season
