v. (动词)
pay, pay for

  • Will you pay the waiter?你愿意付钱给侍者吗?
  • We refused to pay them their wages.我们拒绝付给他们工资。
  • I'll pay for my ticket.我将为我的票付款。
  • How much did you pay for the book?那本书你付了多少钱?

  • If you don't pay up,I'll resort to the law.如果你不全部还清,我就要诉诸法律了。

  • 1.pay的基本意思是“偿还债务”,引申可表示多种意思,不一定指实际上的“金钱”。

  • Many firms compensate their workers if they are hurt at work.许多公司都对工作时受伤的工人给予赔偿。

  • I will remunerate you my debt for gratitude.我要报答我对你的感激之情。
  • We only hope we can remunerate you for the pleasure you have given us.我们只希望能够报答你给我们带来的快乐。

  • He had to satisfy all claims for the damage he had caused.他必须赔偿他造成的所有损失。
  • We are never late in satisfying him for his labour.我们从不延误付给他劳动报酬。
  • 5.reimburse专指为他人报销办事时的花销。例如:
  • All expenses will be reimbursed to the customer for any loss or damage.一切费用都能给你报销。
  • 6.indemnify指允诺或实际赔偿损失,但赔偿额不一定同损失额持平。例如:
  • Their former enemies indemnified the victorious nations for the huge loss.战胜国要求战败国交付巨额赔款。
  • pay, cost, spend, take
  • 这组词的共同意思是“花费”,指某人买或做某事所花费的时间或金钱。其区别是:
  • 1.spend和pay的主语只能是人; cost的主语是物或事; take后接时间时,主语也可以是人。此外,take和cost还可以用动词不定式或动词不定式短语作真实主语,而it为形式主语。例如:
  • I paid him $200 for this painting.我付他200美元买了这幅画。
  • She spent ten dollars shopping for food.她购买食品花了10美元。
  • The work cost me a lot of time and effort.这本著作花费了我大量的时间和精力。

  • “Are you paying cash?”“No,I will pay by cheque.”“你付现金吗?”“不,我用支票支付。”
  • Careless driving cost him his life.粗心大意地开车使他丧了命。
  • 3.spend可接动名词,而cost, pay, take可接动词不定式。
  • 4.spend, take, pay都可用于被动结构,而cost不能用于被动结构。
  • n. (名词)
    pay, salary, wages
  • 这组词都有“薪水”“工资”的意思。其区别在于:
  • 1.pay是普通用词,不可数,意思是“工资,薪水”,指工作所得到的酬金,也可特指发给军人的薪饷,强调付了钱,不如salary和wages正式。
  • 2.salary一般指脑力劳动者的月薪或年俸。例如:
  • He lived on his salary.他靠薪水生活。
  • The company pays good salary.这个公司的薪金高。
  • His regular salary doesn't come to much, but he gets bonuses too.他的固定薪水并不高,但他还有奖金。

  • Her wages are one hundred dollars a week.她的工资为每周100美元。
  • He takes his wages home to his wife every Friday.他每星期五把工资带回家交给妻子。
  • cost,expend,spend,take,pay
  • 这些动词均含“花费”之意。
  • cost指花费时间、金钱、劳力等。其主语是物,而不能由人充当,也不用被动形式。
  • expend较正式用词,通常指为某一专门目的而花费大量金钱、时间或精力。
  • spend普通用词,与cost基本同义,但主语必须是人。
  • take普通用词,指需要占用空间、时间或精力等,其主语可以是人,也可以是一件事情。
  • pay“付款、给……报酬”,它可作及物动词也可作不及物动词。pay常用于以下几种句型:①Sb.pay(s)sb.money意为“某人付款给另一个人或某人给另一个人多少报酬”。
