今天节目中我们一起来学习一下这个单词，applaud，当动词用，可以表示“鼓掌”的意思。

to show enjoyment or approval of something such as a performance or speech by clapping the hands repeatedly to make a noise

eg: You should have heard the audience applaud.

你应该已经听到了观众们的掌声。

eg: He started to applaud and the others joined in.

他开始鼓掌，其他人也加入了进来。

eg: Every person stood to applaud his unforgettable act of courage.

每个人都站起身，为他这种令人难忘的勇敢行为鼓掌。

或者可以理解成：to say that you admire and agree with a person's action or decision

“称赞、表扬某一个人的行为或者决定”；今天视频中大概率是第二种含义和用法；

eg: We applaud the family's decision to remain silent over the issue.

我们赞赏这家人在这个问题上保持沉默的决定。

eg: We applaud her decision.
