用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. inform的基本意思是“通知,告知”,用作及物动词时,接名词或代词作宾语,也可接双宾语,其直接宾语可由带疑问词的动词不定式或that/wh-从句充当。
  2. inform用作不及物动词时,可作“检举,告密”解,常与介词against〔on〕连用。
  1. inform后面不跟双宾语,

    He has informed me his new address.
    这个句子是错误的,应在his前加介词of。

  2. inform后可加宾语再接that引导从句,但不能直接跟that引导从句。

    I have to inform that I have removed to the above given address.
    应在inform后加宾语you。

  3. inform可表示“告诉”,但是用tell会比较普通;
  4. inform表示“向某人报告”,而不是“报告”,因此后面不可直接加事件的详情。

    He has informed his new address to me.
    第二个句子才是正确的。
