v. (动词)
delay v-ing, delay in v-ing
  • 这两个短语意思不同:前者表示“推迟〔耽误〕做某事”,后者表示“忘记做某事”。试比较:
  • They delayed publishing the article.
  • 他们推迟发表这篇文章。
  • Don't delay in answering the letter.
  • 别忘记回信。
    • delay, detain, retard, slacken, slow
  • 这组词都可表示“使某人〔事〕落后于”原计划的安排或通常的进展速度。它们之间的区别是:delay主要指因某事的干扰而妨碍按时完成或到达; detain主要指耽误时间,不能按时到达或离开,也可指不能完成想完成的事情; retard主要指减慢运动、进步速度; slow常与up或down连用,指降低进步的速度,强调主观的意图和目的性; slacken侧重某种松弛〔懈〕。例如:
  • I was detained late in the factory.厂里有事我无法脱身,很晚才离开。
  • Cold weather retards the growth of the crops.寒冷的天气妨碍作物的生长。
  • His bad leg slows him down a lot.他那条受伤的腿使他的速度大受影响。

    • delay, dawdle, lag, loiter, procrastinate

  • He procrastinated in making an appointment to see his doctor.他迟迟不与他的医生预约看病。
  • The small boy soon became tired and lagged far behind.这小男孩一会儿就累了,远远地落到了后面。

  • postpone正式用词，语气较强，多指有安排的延期，常指明延期到一定的时间。
  • defer正式用词，语气强于postpone，多指故意拖延。
  • suspend指暂时中断以待某种条件的实现。
  • prolong指把时间延长至超过正常或通常的限度。
