However, there can be a slight difference of emphasis: ritual often emphasizes the complicated form of the ceremony more than its meaning and you can talk about an elaborate ritual or an empty ritual that has lost its meaning altogether. A rite is often simpler and more serious, especially when it is connected with death: ritual is not used in these cases.在許多情況下這兩個詞可以通用。不過,兩者強調的重點略有不同:ritual通常強調儀式的繁複甚於儀式的意義。可以說an elaborate ritual(繁瑣的儀式)或an empty ritual(空洞的程序),但這兩種表述中的ritual都失去了原先的意義。rite所指的儀式通常較爲簡單且更加嚴肅,在表示與死亡相關的儀式時尤其如此。ritual不這樣用◆He received the last rituals from a Roman Catholic priest.◆funeral rituals■service [countable] a religious ceremony, either as part of the regular worship of a particular church or community, or to mark a particular occasion宗教禮儀;禮拜儀式◆He always attends morning service.他總是參加晨禱。◆A special service of praise and thanksgiving was held in the cathedral.主教堂裏舉行了贊美和感恩的特别儀式。■liturgy ˈlɪtədʒi; NAmEˈlɪtərdʒi [countable, uncountable] a fixed form of public worship used in churches禮拜儀式◆Henry VIII ordered that the English Prayer Book was to replace the old Latin liturgy in church services.亨利八世下令,教堂禮拜時要用英語祈禱書代替原先的拉丁文祈禱書。◆He has written several books on theology and liturgy.他寫過幾部關於神學和禮拜儀式的書。■sacramentˈsækrəmənt [countable] (ratherformal) an important Christian ceremony such as marriage, baptism or communion(基督教)聖事,聖禮(如婚配、聖洗或聖餐等)◆to receive the sacrament of Christian baptism接受基督教洗禮的聖事■prayers [plural] a religious meeting that takes place regularly, in which people say prayers to give thanks to God or ask him for help祈禱會;禱告式◆He reads the Koran, attends daily prayers and has made a pilgrimage to Mecca.他讀《古蘭經》,參加每日祈禱,還去過麥加朝聖。
