词语用法

词义讲解

常见错误

词源解说

v.(动词)

regret的基本意思是“懊悔,惋惜,遗憾”,指对于已经发生或不愿发生但又不得不发生的事情在心里产生一种伤感或抱歉,但已经没有挽回的余地。引申还可指“抱歉”。

regret既可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词。用作及物动词时,后接名词、代词、动名词或that/wh-从句作宾语。可用于被动结构。

regret后接名词,表示对某事后悔; 后接动词不定式表示因将要做某事而感到抱歉或不快; 后接动名词表示因做了某事而感到后悔; 后接从句表示对某事感到遗憾。

regret后接动词不定式的完成体也可表示对已发生之事感到遗憾、后悔,但不如接动名词常见。

n.(名词)

regret用作名词时意思是“懊悔,遗憾”,指对失落物的悲伤、惋惜,也指对已做过或没有成功的事表示懊悔或不愉快,也可指对自己无能为力做某事感到懊悔,常用作不可数名词。regret还可指“痛惜”“失望”“悔恨”“辞谢帖”等。

regret在表达一般的歉意时要用单数形式,由于谢绝而表示的歉意,则要用其复数形式或加much这个形容词。另外, regret在表示“辞谢帖”时多用复数形式。

regret前可用much, little, no等修饰,表示遗憾的程度。

v.(动词)

I regret, I am afraid

这两者在有些句子里(例如都用作表示道歉的客气话时)意思上和语气上没有明显的差别,可以互换。例如：

I am afraid〔I regret〕 that I shall not be able to attend the party.我恐怕不能参加这次聚会〔很遗憾,我不能参加这次聚会〕。

但一般情况下,这两者在含义上还是多少有些差别的。I am afraid...表示说话人多少有些不情愿的情绪,而I regret则重在表示说话人感到遗憾的心理。例如：

I am afraid she didn't tell the truth.

我恐怕她没有说实话。

I regret that she didn't tell the truth.

很遗憾她没有说实话。

前者的含义是“我并不愿意把这一点说穿”,后者的含义是“她应该说实话,遗憾的是她并没有这样做”。

n.(名词)

下面三句意思相同:

He regrets to have done such a thing.

He regrets having done such a thing.

He regrets doing such a thing.

他后悔做了这样的事。

v.(动词)

她对过去的错误感到悔恨。

误 She regretted for her past mistakes.

正 She regretted her past mistakes.

析 regret意为“悔恨”,是及物动词,后面直接跟宾语,不需加介词for。

我很抱歉地通知你,我们不能给你提供工作。

误 I regret informing you that we are unable to offer you employment.

正 I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you employment.

我遗憾地通知你,你的申请没有成功。

误 I regret informing you that your application has been unsuccessful.

正 I regret to inform you that your application has been unsuccessful.

我深深地后悔说了这些话。

误 I deeply regret to say these words.

正 I deeply regret having said these words.

析 表示“为将要做的事而遗憾”应该用regret to- v ; 表示“为已做的某事而懊悔〔遗憾〕”应该用regret v -ing。

n.(名词)

不能赴约,谨致歉意。

误 Please accept my regret at having to refuse the invitation.

正 Please accept my regrets at having to refuse the invitation.

析 regret作名词指由于谢绝而表示的“歉意”时,用复数形式。

☆ 1300年左右进入英语，直接源自古法语的regreter：re (强调） + greter (哀悼），意为很久之后；*初源自古日耳曼语的gretan，意为流泪，哭泣。
