Pain=痛苦,一个人可以sufferfromapain.所以suffering与pain相比,更强调对痛苦的感受,是伤害。而极度的(extreme)痛苦呢是agony.如果pain变成了agony,你就不再sufferfrom这种感受了,而是感觉到tortured,被折磨了。所以光从字面上看,以下几种表达都行,就看你的痛苦又多深了:Itisapain(/painful)toforgetItisanagony(/agonizing)toforgetItisatorturetoforget虽然说suffering也可以作名词,但说itisasufferingtoforgetyou不地道.作为对痛苦的感觉和承受:Thereismuchsufferingintheworld(世界上有很多的苦难).
