用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. imply的基本意思是“暗示〔指〕”,只用作及物动词,可接名词、代词、动名词或that从句作宾语。
  2. 当主语是人时, imply的宾语后常接介词by或in。
v. (动词)
imply, connote, denote, indicate, mean, signify, suggest, symbolize
  • 这组词的共同意思是“意指”。其区别是:
  • 1.mean是普通用语,对于明确与否的观点、物品都可以用; suggest意为“具有…的含义”,暗示“表明”。例如:
  • He claims to mean one thing, but his choice of words suggests quite another.他宣称指的是一件事,而他的话却含有另外一个含义。
  • 2.indicate与imply意为“说明,表明,象征”, indicate通常指明显、明确的事物。例如:
  • A high fever indicates a severe illness.高烧预示着要生病了。
  • imply通常指含蓄地、不明确地“暗示”。例如:
  • His smile implied that he had forgotten all about the time.他的笑预示着他完全忘记了时间。
  • 3.denote与connote通常指明示的内容、含义,从外观上即可看出。例如:
  • The word “lion” denotes〔connotes〕 a certain kind of animal.“狮子”这个词指一种动物。
  • 4.connote与suggest和imply有时可以替换,但connote的用法比其他两个词较为正式。例如:
  • Hunger connotes〔suggests, implies〕 unhappiness.饥饿就预示着不高兴。
  • 5.signify与symbolize表示“意味,象征”, symbolize通常指用物、符号代表某物,着重表示抽象的概念。例如:
  • What does this strange mark signify〔symbolize〕?这个奇怪的符号代表什么?
  • 6.signify有时可以和mean互换。例如:
  • A red sunset signifies〔means〕 fine weather.一轮火红的落日象征着一个好天气。
  • imply, infer
  • 这组词都与“暗示”有关:imply指作者或讲演者用某种方式暗示的意思; 而infer是指读者或听众从“暗示”中推断。例如:
  • The speaker or writer implies things; the listener or reader infers things.讲演者和作者暗示事情,听者和读者则从中推断事情。
  • imply, involve, mean
  • 这组词的共同意思是“意味着”。其区别是:
  • mean使用范围广,可指专门的、具体的事情,也可指暗示的意义或态度; imply含有不直接用文字或语言作充分表示而是靠听话人理解、领会出暗含的意思; involve表示必然产生某种结果。
  • mean,imply,indicate,represent,denote,signify,suggest
  • 这些动词均含有“表示……的意思”之意。
  • mean最普通用词,指文字或符号等所表示的各种明确的或含蓄的意义。
  • imply侧重用文字或符号表示的联想,暗示。
  • indicate指明显的表示。
  • represent指体现或代表。
  • denote指某一词字面或狭义的意思,或指某些符号或迹象的特指含义。
  • signify指用文字、说话或表情等表示单纯的意思。
  • suggest通常指暗含地、隐晦地表达意思。
  • 用作动词 (v.)
    imply by〔in〕 (v.+prep.)
      用…暗示 suggest (sth) with
      imply sth by〔in〕 sth

      What do you imply by that statement?

      你这句话有什么深层次的含义?

      What did she imply in her words?

      她的话意味着什么?
