用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. hint的基本意思是用间接方式表达思想,即“暗示”,可指暗中地或间接地建议,也可指缺少直率、坦白或直截了当地建议。用作不及物动词时,其后常接介词at, about或of; 用作及物动词时,可以名词或代词作宾语,也可接that从句。
  2. hint常可接to,表示向某人暗示某事。
v. (动词)
hint, intimate, suggest
  • 这组词的共同意思是“暗示”,其区别是：
  • hint和intimate指用间接、含蓄的语言“暗示”, intimate更为坦白; suggest可指直接“建议”,也可指暗中流露。例如:
  • He hinted his dissatisfaction with her work.他暗示了对她工作的不满。
  • She hinted that it was time we left.她暗示我们该走了。
  • He intimated that he intended to marry her.他暗示要娶她。

    • 用作动词 (v.)
