基本释义
深入解读
空气暖和、闷热，就像脱脂棉一样可触摸得到。The air was warm, close, palpable as cotton wool.
从这个概念出发，很自然地就用 palpable 引申指“易觉察的、明显的、可感知的”，主要指谎言、差别、感觉、气氛等强烈或明显到几似乎是可以触摸到的，也就意味着易于感知或理解，比如：
他聚精会神地上下打量她。屋子里的紧张气氛几乎显而易见。His
over her. The tension in the room was almost palpable.
洁白无瑕的沙滩上，闪光的棕榈树叶在温和的海风中舞动，摇曳生姿。她的快乐全写在脸上。Glossy palm fronds twisted in the
wind along, powder white beaches. Her joy was palpable.
名著用例
