词语用法

v. (动词)

1. marry的基本意思是“男婚女嫁”,指(使)男子和女子成为夫妻的行为或状态。还可表示家长、亲朋或牧师等为新人主持婚礼。引申可用于其他事物的“结合”“融合”。
2. marry可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时接名词或代词作宾语,宾语可以是职业称谓、人种、他国公民等,其前须加不定冠词a,用于比喻时也可以money等作宾语。可用于被动结构。
3. marry可用于marry sb to sb/sth 结构,意为“(父母)把女儿嫁给某人”或“让…与…结婚”。用于比喻,也可表示“把全副精力用于…”。
4. marry接介词for可表示结婚的原因或目的; 接介词in表示“通过结婚而成为某家族或集团的成员”; 接介词“above〔below,beneath〕＋one”表示“与比自己身份、地位高或低的人结婚”; 后接介词against one's will〔wishes〕表示“违背某人的意愿〔愿望〕结婚”。
5. marry后的宾语可以猜出时着重点不是宾语而是动作时,可以把宾语省略而用作不及物动词。marry用作不及物动词时常与副词early, late, well, happily, never, again等连用。
6. marry可用作系动词,接形容词作主语补足语。
7. marry的过去分词married可用作形容词,在句中作定语或表语,表示婚姻状况。

词义辨析

v. (动词)

be married, get married

• 这两个短语都可表示“已婚的”。其区别在于:
• 1.be married用来表示已婚状态, married用作形容词,意为“已结婚的”; 而get married则可以构成被动结构,有“被…”的含义,有时也用于表示动作。
• 2.在现在完成时的句子里, be married可与表示一段时间的状语连用; 而get married只能跟表示某一时间点的状语连用。

下面三句的意思不同:

• He is not a marrying man.
• 他不是一个想要结婚的男子。
• He is not a married man.
• 他不是一个已婚男子。
• He is not a marriageable man.
• 他不是一个适宜结婚的男子。

常见错误

v. (动词)

1. 他结婚两年了。

   误 He has married for two years.

   正 He married two years ago.

   正 He has been married for two years.

   析 marry用作不及物动词时,是非延续性动词,不能与表示一段时间的状语连用。

2. 迈克和罗斯结了婚。

   误 Mike married with Rose.

   误 Mike was〔got〕 married with Rose.

   正 Mike married Rose.

   正 Mike was〔got〕 married to Rose.

   析 表示“与…结婚”时,无论是marry还是be/get married后面都不可接介词with。

3. 他们于1981年结婚。

   误 They were married (to) each other in 1981.

   正 They were married in 1981.

   析 marry的主语是复数,指的是两人结婚,因而不可再加each other或to each other。
