- 1引人回憶的；喚起情感的；令人聯想的
Something evocative makes a feeling or a memory rise up in you — often of a place, a time, or a person — without spelling it out. An evocative smell, photograph, or piece of music does this work. It is a favourite word in reviews and careful conversation: warmer than memorable. Memorable means you can recall it; evocative means it pulls a mood or a piece of the past into the present. It is often followed by of: evocative of rain on hot streets. It is not simply “beautiful” or “emotional.” A loud, messy film can be emotional without being evocative; a quiet grey photo can be evocative without being pretty.
組成From Latin ēvocātīvus (pertaining to summoning). By surface analysis, evoke + -ative.
