small printed sheet for information
A small piece of paper with printed information, usually given to people to tell them about something or to sell something.
用法模式:
a leaflet about [something]
常见错误:
Learners sometimes confuse 'leaflet' with 'brochure' or 'magazine'. A leaflet is usually one thin sheet of paper (sometimes folded), not a thick or bound publication. They may also say *'a leaflet of the concert'* instead of the more natural 'a leaflet about the concert'. Use 'leaflet about [something]'.
近义词
flyer (Very close in meaning; often used for single-page advertising sheets, especially for events or promotions.)
|
pamphlet (Often slightly longer or stapled; may sound a bit more formal or informational than 'leaflet'.)
|
brochure (Usually higher quality and multi-page, often used for travel, real estate, or products; more polished than a typical leaflet.)
反义词
book (A long, bound text, contrasting with the short, single-sheet format of a leaflet.)

to distribute printed leaflets
To go to a place and give many people leaflets, usually to tell them about something or to support an idea.
用法模式:
to leaflet [an area] about [something]
常见错误:
Learners sometimes say *'leaflet people'* when they mean 'give people leaflets'. While 'leaflet' can take an object ('to leaflet an area'), it is more natural to say 'leaflet the area' or 'hand out leaflets to people', not *'leaflet the people'*. They may also incorrectly use 'leaflet' as a noun in patterns like *'to leaflet about'* instead of the verb phrase 'to hand out leaflets about'.
近义词
distribute (More general; can refer to giving out anything, not just printed leaflets.)
|
hand out (Informal phrasal verb for giving things to many people one by one; not limited to leaflets.)
反义词

one segment of a compound leaf
In plant science, one small part of a big leaf that is made of many small leaf parts joined together.
用法模式:
a leaflet of [a compound leaf]
常见错误:
Learners may confuse 'leaf' and 'leaflet' in the botanical sense, using 'leaf' for both the whole compound leaf and its small parts. In botany, the whole structure is a 'compound leaf', and each small part is a 'leaflet'. Outside scientific or educational contexts, this technical sense is rarely needed.
近义词
leaf segment (Descriptive phrase rather than a strict technical term; makes the part–whole relationship clearer to non-specialists.)
反义词
stem (Refers to the supporting part of the plant, contrasting with the leaf or leaflet as the flat, photosynthesizing part.)
