使役動詞Causative Verbs
Jessie Lin
使役動詞Causative Verbs是表示要求某人去做事,或讓某一件事被完成。
1. 使役動詞接原型動詞 V1
make, let, have 這三個使役動詞後的受詞常為人,表達要求某人做某事時,
接原型動詞
S + CV + O + V1
Her mother made her stay home.
She had the doctor check her leg.
Her father does not let her go out at night.
2. 使役動詞接不定詞 to + V1
除 make, let, have 之外的使役動詞如: get, want, permit, allow, order, 等後面
接了受詞(人)後要先接不定詞 to 再接動詞原型
S + CV + O + to + V1
I got Ben to mail the letter.
The girl wants her boyfriend to apologize.
I am not allowed to tell you the secret.
3. 使役動詞接過去分詞 V3
have, get 或其他使役動詞後面接的受詞(多為事物,也可為人)表達了接受其
後的動作,也就是被動地完 成了某事時,受詞後接的是過去分詞V3 (past
participle)
S + CV + O + V3
I had my car washed.
She got her hand burned.
We had our customers satisfied.
4. 使役動詞加動名詞 V-ing
have, get 後面加結果,可能是預期的,也可能是不想要的結果,通常是主詞
無法控制時,後面加動名詞。
S + CV + O + V-ing
The baby had everyone in the room laughing.
Tom got the machine running.
5. make
I could not make myself understand. 我沒法瞭解。
I could not make myself understood. 我沒法讓自己被理解。
6. let 後面要接 be +V3 Let the work be done immediately.
請問潔西卡,如果用"let you feel comfortable"而不是"make"這樣也可以嗎?
不知道有沒有這樣的細分。
有些是慣用法,上去Google打let you feel comfortable,出來的也都還是 make you feel comfortable。這應該就像我常愛說的 一箭雙雕,說一箭兩雕人家也不是不懂,只是就大家都說一箭雙雕,Google出來也是一樣。大概是這樣的意思吧:)
那如果是I can’t wait to get started 為什麼get 後面加過去式
可以多查一下字典來了解單字的用法, get started 是片語,started 不是過去式,這個句子也不是使役動詞的用法
下面是 Cambridge 字典的例子
get started
to begin
開始
When can we get started?
我們甚麽時候能開始?
