类比lèibǐ一种推理方法,根据两种事物在某些特征上的相似,做出它们在其他特征上也可能相似的结论。如光和声都是直线传播,有反射、折射和干扰现象等,由于声呈波动状态,因而推出光也呈波动状态。类比推理是一种或然性的推理,其结论是否正确还有待实践证明。{analogy; inference from certain admitted resemblances between two or more things to a possible further similarity between them. For example, light and sound are both transmitted rectilinearly with reflection, refraction and interference. As sound is propagated in the form of waves, it is therefore inferred that light is also propagated in the form of waves. Analogy is an inference based on probability. Whether its conclusion is true or not is to be proved by practice.} |
