用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. owe的基本意思是“精神与物质上的亏欠”,即“欠某人债,应该向(某人)付出”,引申可表示“某人对于他人、国家负有感激义务等或某人把发现、原理、成就等归于他人”,即“感恩”“感激”“归功于”“由于”。
  2. owe表示“欠(债)”与介词for连用时,后面只接物; 与介词to连用时,后面可接人,也可接物或事物。
  3. owe用作及物动词,其后接名词或代词作宾语,也可接双宾语(两个都是直接宾语)。两个宾语一般说来都可单独出现。
  4. owe作“归功于”解时,一般使用owe...to句型,不用于被动结构。
  5. 如果owe的宾语是动词不定式或名词从句,可使用it作形式宾语,将充当真正宾语的动词不定式或名词从句放在句尾。
v. (动词)
owe...to, be due to
  • 二者的共同意思是“欠”。其区别是：
  • 1.owe是动词; due是形容词。例如:
  • She owes ten dollars to her sister.她欠她姐姐10美元。
  • Any money that is due to you will be paid before the end of this month.欠你的钱将在这月底之前全部支付给你。
  • 2.owe...to常译为“欠某人的债”,用于比喻可表示对“某人负有义务或名誉,功劳应归于…”; 而due一般译为“应付给”,用以表示原因。例如:
  • Our grateful thanks are due to the police department for their help in the making of this film.我们由衷感谢警方在制作这部影片的过程中给予我们的帮助。
    • owe...to, attribute...to
  • 这两短语的共同意思是“把…归因于…”。其区别是：
  • 1.owe...to只用于主动句,且多含褒义; 而attribute...to可用于主动句,也可用于被动句,且多用于贬义。例如:
  • To whom do we owe the discovery of penicillin?盘尼西林的发现该归功于谁?
  • He attributes his success to hard work.他把自己的成功归因于努力工作。
  • Economists attributed the lack of progress to poor cooperation.经济学家把缺乏进步归咎于合作不好。
  • 2.owe...to的主语可以是物,也可以是人; attribute...to的主语只能是人。例如:
  • The bank and its customer owe a large number of obligations to one another.银行和主顾彼此都应负很多义务。
  • She attributes her success to hard work and a bit of luck.她认为她的成功是由于勤奋加上一点运气而得来的。
