词义讲解

常见错误

词源解说

v.(动词)

frighten的基本意思是“使恐惧”“使害怕”。可指对一刺激的短暂反应,也可指充满害怕或恐惧的任何一种心理状态。在程度上则多指使人瘫作一团的“恐惧”。

frighten一般用作及物动词,通常接人或动物作宾语。偶尔也可用作不及物动词,这时主动形式常含被动意义。

frighten常用于be ～ed结构:其后接at, by, of或with表示被某一突然出现的人或物所惊吓; 接of还可表示习惯性地害怕某人或某物; 接介词to表示惊吓的程度。

v.(动词)

frighten from, frighten into

这两个短语中介词不同,意思则完全相反:前者的意思是“吓得(某人)不敢做(某事)”,后者的意思是“恐吓(某人)做(某事)”。试比较:

The thunder frightened the child from crying.

雷声把那孩子吓得不敢哭了。

The thunder frightened the child into crying.

雷声把那孩子吓哭了。

v.(动词)

他们威胁那位老太太,让她在纸上签了字。

误 They frightened the old lady to sign the paper.

正 They frightened the old lady into signing the paper.

析 说“恐吓(某人)做某事”时, frighten的宾语后不可接动词不定式,而应该接“into v -ing”短语来表示。

☆ 1660年进入英语，直接源自古英语的fyrhto，意为惊吓，恐怖。
