用法辨析

v. (動詞)

• excuse的基本意思是“原諒”“寬恕”,常指原諒一個人的輕微過失或疏忽,主語通常是人。引申可表示“免除”“爲…辯解”等。
• excuse一般用作及物動詞,可接名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語,但不接動詞不定式或從句。
• excuse作“原諒”“寬恕”解時,其賓語後常接介詞for表示所原諒的事; 作“免除”解時,可接雙賓語,也可與介詞from搭配使用; 作“爲…辯解”解時,常接反身代詞表示“爲自己辯解”或“說聲對不起”。
• excuse作“原諒”“免除”解時,可用於被動結搆。作“爲…辯解”解時不用於被動結搆。作“原諒”解以名詞或代詞作賓語時,可用於被動結搆(須以人作主語); 以動名詞作賓語時,則不用於被動結搆。
• Excuse me的意思是“對不起”“請原諒〔寬恕〕”,是口語中常用的客套話,可表示對過失或失禮的歉意,也可作爲請求對方允許、問事的禮貌用語,還可用以表示婉言謝絕、客氣糾正等,常與連詞but或情態動詞will, would等連用。在美式英語中,Excuse me還可表示“提請對方重複說過的話”,而英式英語中在這種場郃下常用I beg your pardon?或Pardon?來表示。
