dislike 意思是厌恶、讨厌、厌憎,主要有5种用法:
1、用作名词的 dislike 通常不接不定式,而接 to doing sth。如:我非常讨厌打牌赌钱。应该是:I have a strong dislike to playing cards for money.而不能表达为:I have a strong dislike to play cards for money.
2、用作名词,表示“不喜欢”、“讨厌”,注意区别两个短语的搭配:一是have [show] a dislike for [of] 不喜欢、讨厌,如:I have a dislike for [of] dogs. 我讨厌狗。另外一个是 take a dislike to 不喜欢,讨厌。如:He takes a dislike to her. 他不喜欢她。
3、用作动词,其后通常接名词或动名词作宾语,现代英语中通常不接不定式(这与其反义词 like 不同)。如:She dislikes being spoken like that. 她讨厌那样跟他讲话。通常不说:She dislikes to be spoken like that.
4、动词 dislike 在现代英语中不仅不接不定式作宾语,而且通常也不接不定式的复合结构。如:我讨厌他用我的书。正确表达是:I dislike him [his] use my book. 错误表达为:I dislike him to use my book.
5、dislike 通常只用作及物动词,所以下面一句中其后的 it 不能省略(其后的 when 从句为状语从句而非宾语从句),如:I dislike it when you whistle. 我讨厌你吹口哨。
