v.动词
brag, boast, glory这组词意思相近。它们之间的区别是: 1.boast既可作“吹嘘”解,也可作“以…为自豪”解; 而brag只作“吹嘘”解,无“以…自豪”之义; glory只可作“自豪”“得意”解,不含“吹嘘,吹牛”之义。 2.boast和brag都可用作及物或不及物动词; 而glory只用作不及物动词,且多和in连用。 3.boast指并非全无根据地“吹嘘”; 而brag则指毫无事实依据地乱“吹”。 boast，brag，crow，pride这些动词均含有“自夸，吹嘘”之意。 boast普通用词，指对自己所做的事，自己的长处、财富以及家庭等的夸耀，常含言过其实的意味。 brag非正式用词，其夸耀和吹嘘意味强于boast，到了过分夸大，有时令人讨厌的地步。 crow多指大声吵嚷地吹嘘，夸耀自己做某事比他人做得好。 pride与boast的意义较接近，指炫耀、夸口，自鸣得意，常与反身代词连用。 词源不详，可能和拟声词bray驴叫声，喇叭声词源相关，也可能来自凯尔特语，和姓氏Bragg布拉格同源；还有可能源自古北欧语。make brag of自夸
