用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. affirm的基本意思是根据事实、本人经历或对某事的确信而作出肯定的陈述,即“断言”。
  2. affirm作“断言; 证实”解时多用作及物动词,不用于进行时态,可直接接宾语,但多数情况下接that/wh-从句。affirm还可接“to be n./adj. ”充当宾语补足语。
  3. affirm偶尔也可用作不及物动词,接介词to引起的短语表示证实的内容。
v. (动词)
affirm, allege, assert, claim, declare
  • 这组词都有“以某种肯定口气提出…”的意思,它们之间的区别是:
  • 1.allege表示“声称,伪称”,常有借口的意思。例如:
  • He alleged illness for a reason for not going to work.他称病,以此作为不去工作的理由。
  • 2.affirm表示“肯定,断言”,指坚信不疑因而断言。例如:
  • It may be safely affirmed that he is innocent.可以断言,他是无罪的。
  • 3.assert表示“主张,断言”,指宣称某事如此,并不说它是事实,着重主观自信心。例如:
  • He asserts the cause of liberty.他主张自由主义。
  • 4.claim表示“宣称”,语气比assert弱些。例如:
  • He claimed to be the rightful heir.他声称自己是合法继承人。
  • 5.declare意味着因否认某事而郑重地宣称。例如:
  • He declared that he had not done it.他声称他没干这事。
  • assert,affirm,allege,maintain,testify,claim
  • 这些动词均含有“断言,声称”之意。
  • assert主观意味强,指自认为某事就是如此,而不管事实如何。
  • affirm侧重在作出断言时表现出的坚定与不可动摇的态度。
  • allege多指无真凭实据,不提供证据的断言或宣称。
  • maintain与assert近义,但前者指坚决维护某种主张或观点。
  • testify多指在法庭作证,庄严地宣称自己所说属实。
  • claim可与assert换用,但语气弱一些,侧重指行使自己的权利提出要求令他人承认。
  • 用作动词 (v.)
