这些名词均含“时期、时代”之意。 age常指具有显著特征或以某杰出人物命名的历史时代或时期。 epoch正式用词,侧重指以某重大事件或巨大变化为起点的新的历史时期。 era书面语用词,指历史上的纪元、年代,可与epoch和age互换,侧重时期的延续性和整个历程。 period最普通用词,概念广泛,时间长短不限,既可指任何一个历史时期,又可指个人或自然界的一个发展阶段。 times侧重某一特定时期。

三、词义辨析:

mature,ripen,age,develop

这些动词均有“成熟、长成”之意。 mature指生物自然发育成熟或丰满或使其能起正常作用,还可指人获得智慧、经验或变得世故。 ripen侧重已到长生成熟的顶点。 age一般指使人过早成熟,强调已走向衰老。 develop侧重使某一种类或个体潜在本能进化完全,词义比mature广泛。
