词语用法

词义讲解

常见错误

词源解说

v.(动词)

excuse的基本意思是“原谅”“宽恕”,常指原谅一个人的轻微过失或疏忽,主语通常是人。引申可表示“免除”“为…辩解”等。

excuse一般用作及物动词,可接名词、代词或动名词作宾语,但不接动词不定式或从句。

excuse作“原谅”“宽恕”解时,其宾语后常接介词for表示所原谅的事; 作“免除”解时,可接双宾语,也可与介词from搭配使用; 作“为…辩解”解时,常接反身代词表示“为自己辩解”或“说声对不起”。

excuse作“原谅”“免除”解时,可用于被动结构。作“为…辩解”解时不用于被动结构。作“原谅”解以名词或代词作宾语时,可用于被动结构(须以人作主语); 以动名词作宾语时,则不用于被动结构。

Excuse me的意思是“对不起”“请原谅〔宽恕〕”,是口语中常用的客套话,可表示对过失或失礼的歉意,也可作为请求对方允许、问事的礼貌用语,还可用以表示婉言谢绝、客气纠正等,常与连词but或情态动词will, would等连用。在美式英语中,Excuse me还可表示“提请对方重复说过的话”,而英式英语中在这种场合下常用I beg your pardon?或Pardon?来表示。

n.(名词)

excuse用作名词的基本意思是“理由”,常指为自己做了不该做的事或说了不该说的话而寻找“借口”,常译为“托词”。

excuse既可用作可数名词,也可用作不可数名词。常用“for sth/ v -ing”作其后置定语,时有也用动词不定式作其定语。

excuse有时还可作“歉意,道歉”解,一般用复数形式。

v.(动词)

excuse for, excuse from

这两个短语中介词不同,意思完全相反:前者的意思是“原谅做了某事”,后者的意思是“原谅未做某事”。试比较:

Excuse me for telling them the truth.

请原谅我把实情告诉了他们。

Excuse me from telling them the truth.

请原谅我没把实情告诉他们。

n.(名词)

excuse me,I'm sorry,I beg your pardon

在口语中,这3种表达方式都可表示“对不起,请原谅”。但用法上有区别:I'm sorry用在“某人说完话或做完事以后,需向人表示歉意”的场合; excuse me用在“某人说话或做事可能会引起对方不快或是要麻烦人家或是请示许可”的场合; I beg your pardon是一种比较正式的说法,在美式英语中可用pardon me来表示道歉。例如:

Excuse me, but may I leave the classroom for a moment?对不起,我可以离开教室一会儿吗?

I'm sorry, but I've lost your umbrella.对不起,把你的雨伞丢了。

I beg your pardon for such seeming rudeness.请原谅这种听来鲁莽的话。

v.(动词)

原谅我还没给你回信。

误 Excuse me for I have not answered your letter.

正 Excuse me for not answering your letter.

析 excuse宾语后的介词for不能接句子,一般接动名词。

艾德为自己迟到找借口,说自己的表慢了。

误 Ade excused him for his tardiness, saying his watch was wrong.

正 Ade excused himself for his tardiness, saying his watch was wrong.

析 表示“为自己…找借口〔开脱〕”,要用excuse oneself for。

n.(名词)

作为失败的借口,她说她一直在生病。

误 As excuse of her failure she said she had been ill.

正 In excuse of her failure she said she had been ill.

析 表示“作为…的借口”,可说in excuse of,不可说as excuse of。

☆ 13世纪晚期进入英语，直接源自古法语的escuser；*初源自古典拉丁语的excusare：ex (出，开） + causa (控告），意为解除控告。
