表示人感覺熱，又該用什麼詞呢?眾多“熱”詞選手中，只有幾個有此能力。
1、hot: if you feel hot, your body feels hot in a way that is uncomfortable: I was hot and tired after the journey.
The wine made her feel hot.
I feel so hot that I want to take off all my clothes.
不過，近幾年在口語中，hot越來越多地指其他意思了。
A hot girl. She is hot. 等再也不是“感覺很熱”的意思了。
2. bake (vi)used to say that a person or place is very hot :
We sat baking in the sun.
I'm baking!
I am baked in the scorching sun.
3. roasted/roasting: I am roasting/roasted in the scorching sun.
a roasting hot day

4. sweat/perspire:

sweat heavily/profusely (= sweat a lot ) Within minutes she was sweatingprofusely.
perspire：If you perspire, parts of your body become wet,especially becauseyou are hot or have been doing hard work SYN sweat:

5、boiling: You must be boiling in that sweater.

四、用於物體(燒、灼燒相關)
1、 Singe: to damage hair, wool, paper etc by burning it slightly so thatthe ends or edges are burnt : The flames were hot enough to singe ing，那成了“唱歌”啦，而是singeing
2、 scorch：To damage the surface of something by burning it so that a darkmark is left on it : Having the iron on a very high heat can scorch the heater was left on all night and it scorched the wall.
直接灼燒物體表面導致表面燒焦留下一個燒焦(糊)的.印跡――破壞性比singe強。例：Having the iron on a very highheat can scorch the fabric. The heater was left on all night and it scorched thewall.
3、 burn 直接焚燒，以達到完全破壞之目的 (等同於set fire to或set …onfire…這是明目張膽的“放火”了)――破壞性最強
4、 Scald: to burn your skin with very hot liquid or steam: The coffee wasso hot it nearly scalded his tongue. It's easy to knock a pan off the stove andscald yourself. | He was scalded by steam escaping from the broken pipe.
