suggest的错误用法分析

  下面是小编整理的一些关于suggest的错误用法分析,以供大家学习参考。

  一、

  误用不定式作宾语

  要表示汉语的“建议做某事”,英语通常用 suggest doing sth,而不能用 suggest to do sth。如:

  他建议坐飞机去,可我认为这样花费太大。

  正:He suggested going by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.

  误:He suggested to go by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.

  汤姆建议把房子卖了,但是安表示反对。

  正:Tom suggested selling the house but Ann was against it.

  正:Tom suggested to sell the house but Ann was against it.

  二、

  汉语通常说“建议某人做某事”,但英语习惯上不能说 suggest sb to do sth,而说suggest sb’s [sb]doing sth。也就是说,suggest 后不仅不接不定式,而且也不接不定式的复合结构。如:

  他建议我们早点动身。

  正:He suggested that we leave earlier.

  误:He suggested us to leave earlier.

  当然,我们也可以用后接 that 从句的形式来表达此意思(注意谓语用 “should+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气形式)。如:

  I suggest that we (should) have lunch right now.

  我建议我们现在就吃午饭。

  He suggests that we should all go to see the film.

  他建议我们都去看电影。

  比较以下同义表达:

  他建议他们在没有听到事实真相之前什么都别说。

  正:He suggested (should) not saying anything till they heard the facts.

  正:He suggested saying nothing about it till they heard the facts.

  正:He suggested that they shouldn’t say anything till they heard the facts.

  三、

  混用其后宾语从句的语气

  suggest 后接宾语从句时,从谓语既可用陈述语气,也可用虚拟语气,其区别与 suggest所表示的意思有关:

  1. 若suggest 表示“建议”,则其后接的 that 从句谓语通常用“(should)+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气形式。如:

  I suggested that she should go home.

  我建议她回家去。

  She suggested that I (should) be the leader.

  她提议由我来做领导人。

  2. 若suggest 表示“暗示”“意指”“表明”等义,则其后接的 that 从句要用陈述语气。如:

  What he said suggested that he was a cheat.

  他说的话表明他是个骗子。

  Are you suggesting that I’m not suited for the job?

  你的意思是说我不适合做这工作?

  四、

  其后误接双宾语

  要表示向某人提出某情况,suggest后不能接双宾语,即不能用suggest sb sth,而通常用 suggest sth to sb。如:

  我向她提出一个解决问题的办法。

  正:I suggested a way out to her.

  误:I suggested her a way out.

  若其中的直接宾语比较复杂(比如是that 从句)时,可考虑改用 suggest to sb sth。如:

  我向他建议我们应该用另一种方式处理这个问题。

  正:I suggested to him that we should tackle the problem another way.

  误:I suggested him that we should tackle the problem another way.

  五、

  忽略相关派生名词的相关用法

  按英语习惯,suggest的派生名词suggestion也具有与其词根动词相似的用法,如当suggestion表示“建议”时,若其后接一个that引导的宾语从句,则该从句也习惯上要用“should+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气。如:

  The suggestion that shops should open on Sundays led to a heated discussion.

  关于商店星期日也应该营业的提议,引起了激烈的争论。

  There was a suggestion that Brown should be dropped from the team.

  有一项建议是布朗应该离队。

  suggest的用法详解

  一、有“建议”的意思。advise、propose也有此意,请比较它们用法的异同:

  1) 都可接名词做宾语

  She suggested/advised/proposed an early start. 她建议早一点出发。

  We suggested/advised/proposed a visit to the museum the next day.

  我们建议明天去参观博物馆。

  2) 都可接动名词做宾语

  I suggested/advised/proposed putting off the sports meet. 我建议将运动会延期。

  They suggested/advised/proposed waiting until the proper time.

  他们建议(我们)等到恰当的时机才行动。

  3) 都可接that宾语从句,that从句用should+动词原形,should可以省略。

  She suggested/advised/proposed that the class meeting (should) not be held on Saturday. 她建议班会不要在星期六举行。

  We suggested/advised/proposed that he (should) go and make an apology to his teacher. 我们建议他去向老师道歉。

  4) advise可接动词不定式复合宾语,propose可接不定式做宾语。

  I advised him to give up the foolish idea. =I suggested/proposed his/him giving up the foolish idea.

  我建议他放弃那愚蠢的念头。(suggest和propose在口语里可接动名词的复合宾语)。

  We proposed to start early. =We proposed starting early.

  我们建议早一点出发。(接不定式不用suggest和advise)

  二、有“提出”的意思。

  如:He suggested a different plan to his boss. 他向老板提出了一个不同的计划。

  Xiao Wang suggested a way to solve the problem.

  小王提出了一个解决这个问题的办法。

  三、有“暗示、表明”的意思,其主语往往是事物,而不是人。

  1) 接名词或动名词做宾语。

  The simple house suggested a modest income.

  这座简朴的房子表明(房主的)收入并不高。

  Her pale face suggested bad health. 她脸色苍白,看来身体不好。

  The thought of summer suggests swimming.

  一想到夏天,就使人们联想到游泳。

  2) 接宾语从句,从句用陈述语气。如:

  The decision suggested that he might bring his family.

  这个决定表明他可以把家属带来。

  The expression on his face suggested that he was very angry.

  他脸上的表情表明他很生气。

  四、在主语从句It is suggested that…及名词suggestion后面表示具体建议的表语从句、同位语从句都应用should+动词原形,should可以省略。如:

  It was suggested that we (should) give a performance at the party.

  人们建议我们在晚会上表演节目。

  His suggestion was that the debts (should) be paid off first.

  他的建议是先把债务还清。
