1. encourage的基本意思是“鼓励”,指给予意志薄弱的人或缺乏经验的人不畏艰险、困苦的勇气和信心,或者提高某人的情绪,去迎接或完成艰巨的任务,引申可表示为“怂恿”“促进”“助长”“援助”等。
2. encourage只用作及物动词,通常接名词、代词或“名词所有格〔物主代词〕+动名词”作宾语; 也可接以动词不定式充当补足语的复合宾语,此时动词不定式可能指未来的动作,也可指正在进行的动作; 还可接介词in引起的短语,表示鼓励某人目前正在做的某种事情。encourage可用于被动结构。
3. encourage的主语一般是人,偶尔也可以物作主语,这时的意思是“有助于”。
4. encourage的宾语一般也是人,如接非人称宾语,则意为鼓励某人做、干、形成、使用等,可以理解为鼓励人去行动的省略形式。encourage在接“名词所有格〔物主代词〕+动名词”作宾语时,不可用于被动结构。
5. encourage的现在分词encouraging常可用作形容词,在句中作定语; 其过去分词encouraged也可用作形容词,在句中作表语。
