动词加out短语意思(和动词的搭配--英语介词)

在所有的动词短语中,out出现的频率最多。

动词加out短语意思(和动词的搭配--英语介词)(1)

在《朗文高白词典》统计的前200个最常用的动词中,可与up、out同时搭配使用的动词就超过了100个,也就是说,50%以上的最常用动词都可以和这两个词搭配使用形成新的词义,可见掌握这两个小品词的用法对我们提高自己的表达能力是多么重要。

我们在跟着课本学英语的时候,往往会对一些熟悉的动词短语产生理解上的困惑:为什么 make up有“编造”的意思?

为什么 cut up是“切碎”的意思?

come和 come out都有“出现”的意思,这两者有什么区别?为什么“辍学”是 drop out??这儿的“out”要如何理解?

其实,所有这些短语都是可以从其原始词义来进行理解的,从而有助于我们在理解的基础上进行记忆,而不是像以前那样只能死记硬背,无道理可讲。

尽管up、out与动词的组合千变万化,但其形成的词义还是有规律可循的。

和对其他词的理解一样,我们也要从这个两个词的原始词义入手,逐渐扩展到其延伸义。
