suggest的使用方法

suggest的使用方法注意:

1. 要表示汉语的“建议做某事”,英语通经常使用suggest doing sth,而不能用 suggest to do sth

2. “建议某人做某事”,英语习惯上不能说suggest sb to do sth,而说suggest sb’s [sb] doing sth

3. 要表示向某人提出某情况,suggest后不能接双宾语,即不能用suggest sb sth,而通经常使用 suggest sth to sb。如:

  • 他建议坐飞机去,可我觉得这样花费太大。

             正:He suggested going by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.

             误:He suggested to go by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.

  • 他建议我们早点动身。

              正:He suggested that we leave earlier.

              误:He suggested us to leave earlier.

  • 我向她提出一个解决这个问题的办法。

               正:I suggested a way out to her.

               误:I suggested her a way out.

4.  当然,我们也能够用后接that 从句的形式来表达此意思(注意谓语用“should+动词原形”这种虚拟语气形式)。如:

      I suggest that we(should) have lunch right now. 我建议我们如今就吃午饭。

      比較下面同义表达:

      他建议他们在没有听到事实真相之前什么都别说。

          正:He suggested not saying anything till they heard the facts.

          正:He suggested saying nothing about it till they heard the facts.

         正:He suggested that they shouldn’t say anything till they heard the facts.

5. suggest后接宾语从句时,从谓语既可用陈述语气,也可用虚拟语气,其差别与 suggest所表示的意思有关,若suggest表示“建议”,则其后接的that 从句谓语通经常使用“(should)+动词原形”这种虚拟语气形式。若suggest表示“暗示”“意指”“表明”等义,则其后接的that 从句要用陈述语气。如:

                She suggested that I(should) be the leader. 她提议由我来做领导人。

                What he said suggestedthat he was a cheat. 他说的话表明他是个骗子。

                Are you suggesting thatI’m not suited for the job? 你的意思是说我不适合做这工作?

               注1:若当中的直接宾语比較复杂(比方是that从句)时,可考虑改用suggest to sb sth。如:

              我向他建议我们应该用还有一种方式处理这个问题。

                   正:I suggested to him that we should tackle the problem another way.

                   误:I suggested him that we should tackle the problem another way.

              注2:按英语习惯,suggest的派生名词suggestion也具有与其词根动词相似的使用方法,如当suggestion表示“建议”时,若其后接一个that引导的宾语从句,则该从句也习惯上要用“should+动词原形”这种虚拟语气。如:

                  The suggestion that shops should open on Sundays led to a heated discussion. 关于商店星期日也应该营业的提议,引起了激烈的争论。

                  There was a suggestion that Brown should be dropped from the team. 有一项建议是布朗应该离队。
