词义讲解
词源解说
v.(动词)
engage的基本意思是“约定”,即凭借契约、誓言或诺言等约束人或事。用于约束别人,即表示“雇”“聘”; 用于约束自己,则表示“许诺”“保证”。这种允诺可信,有约束力,并将履行一段时间,如“订婚”等。引申可表示“占用,吸引,引起”或“使忙于,使从事”等。
engage主要用作及物动词,接名词、代词作宾语。作“雇,聘”解时可以接以as短语充当补足语的复合宾语。作“保证”解时可接for+名词或that从句,也可接oneself+to- v 构成的复合结构。
engage接介词in可表示“参加”; 接介词with可表示“交战”; 表示“订婚”则接介词to。
v.(动词)
engage和hire都可表示“雇用”。其区别在于:
1.engage的宾语只能是人,而hire的宾语可以是物。例如:
We hire out vans by the day.我们的货车按日出租。
I've engaged him as my new assistant.我已聘他为我的新助手。
2.engage的对象一般有一技之长,而hire的对象则可以是“力工”等。例如:
He hires out as a house painter in the summer.他在夏天受雇当房屋油漆工。
He engaged a lawyer to argue his case in court.他请了一位律师来为他出庭辩护。
3.engage所指的雇用时限一般较长,而hire可指短期雇用。例如:
He hired himself to work in the fields for one summer.他曾受雇在田里干一个夏天的活。
He engaged a new secretary.他聘用了一名新秘书。
☆ 15世纪初期进入英语,直接源自古法语的en gage,意为在……承诺上;*初源自古日耳曼语的wadiare,意为承诺。
