accepts

A 开头单词词源字典

基本解释

  • n. 合格品；良浆
  • v. 接受；承认（accept的三单形式）；同意

词源解说

  • 14世纪中期进入英语，直接源自古法语的accepter，意为给什么拿什么；最初源自拉丁语的capere，意为心甘情愿地领受。

同根派生

  • accepted adj. 公认的

用法辨析

    v. (动词)

  • accept的基本意思是“接受”,如接受礼物、邀请、好意、批评、建议、接纳为成员等等。引申可表示“承认; 同意; 认可; 相信”,如答应某些条件、相信某种解释、相信某事属实、认同某种理论、承担责任、容忍或忍受困境等等。在商业用语中accept则表示“承兑; 接受(某种付款方式)”。
  • accept具有明显的主观色彩,不仅客观上“接”,而且更主要的是主观上的“受”。accept某人的劝说或者建议时表示你情愿地按照他们的劝说或建议去做; accept令人不愉快的情形时表示你认识到这是不能改变的、必须接受的现实,即含不情愿和勉强之意。
  • accept主要用作及物动词,其宾语可为名词、代词或动名词,也可接动词不定式。作“认可; 相信”等解时可接that/wh-从句。作“承认…是…”解时还常接以“as+ n./adj./v -ing”充当补足语的复合宾语,这时as不可省略。
  • accept表示声明“接受”或“不接受”邀请,通常用现在时态。表示为大学或俱乐部所接受时,后面所跟的介词是 by 而不是 to; 表示“聘用”时,后面接介词 for。
  • 同receive不同，accept是“接受”，而receive是“收到”。accept a present是“接受一个礼物”，不会退还，而receive a present是“收到一个礼物”，有可能会退还；
  • accept和accept of以前可以替换使用，现accept of用的比较少，往往带有“正式”或“垂恩”之意。只适用于说接受present，favour，love，hospitality等，不适于接受theory，advice，apology，challenge，offer，invitation，ruling等；
  • 单独用作“接受邀请或条件”等意思，If you accept, please let me know immediately.
  • 表明接受或不接受邀请时，一般用现在时态。I am pleased to accept your invitation. 不用I shall be pleased to accept your invitation.
