mean多用作及物動詞,其后可接名詞、代詞、動名詞、動詞不定式或that/wh-從句作賓語,有時還可接雙賓語。mean也可接由動詞不定式或“to be/as+ n. ”充當補足語的復合賓語。mean偶爾也可用作不及物動詞。

mean作“打算,企圖”解時,要搭用動詞不定式作賓語,此時如以非謂語動詞作主語,則該主語須用動名詞。作“意味著”解,則要搭用動名詞作賓語,此時如以非謂語動詞作主語,則該主語須用動詞不定式。

v.(動詞)

mean, connote, denote, imply, indicate, signify, suggest, symbolize

這組詞的共同意思是“意指”。其區(qū)別是：

1.mean是普通用語,對于明確與否的觀點、物品都可以用; suggest意為“具有…的含義”,暗示“表明”。例如:

He claims to mean one thing, but his choice of words suggests quite another.他宣稱指的是一件事,而他的話卻含有另外一個含義。

2.indicate與imply意為“說明,表明,象征”, indicate通常指明顯、明確的事物。例如:

A high fever indicates a severe illness.高燒預示著要生病了。

imply通常指含蓄地、不明確地“暗示”。例如:

adj.(形容詞)

mean, be going to, be thinking of, intend

這四者都有“想要”或“打算”的意思。其區(qū)別是：

1.mean比intend單純,沒有intend專心于某事的含義。

2.be going to表示在說話之前已經(jīng)作出決定; 而be thinking of則表示正在“想”或“打算”,還沒有最后決定。

3.在口語中,一般不用intend to,而用be going to或be thinking of的形式來表達。

4.mean還有“意味”的意思,而另三個詞(組)則沒有此義。

n.(名詞)

mean, imply, involve

這組詞的共同意思是“意味著”。其區(qū)別是：

mean使用范圍廣,可指專門的、具體的事情,也可指暗示的意義或態(tài)度; imply含有不直接用文字或語言作充分表示而是靠聽話人理解、領會出暗含的意思; involve表示必然產(chǎn)生某種結(jié)果。
