用法辨析

    n. (名词)

  • sign的基本意思是“标记,符号”,指写在或刻画在物体上的,代表具有固定意义的一种简明的符号或标志,使人一看便知道它所代表的意义。sign引申可作“手势,姿势”“信号”“征兆,迹象”解。
  • sign后常接of短语作定语,有时还可接动词不定式或that从句作定语。

    • v. (动词)

  • sign用作名词时有“记号”的意思,转化为动词可作“签名”解,一般指人在文件、信件上签署自己的名字; sign作名词还可作“手势”解,转化为动词则是“做手势”的意思,指由于某种原因不能用语言表达或不想用口头方式交流的情况下用手势来表达某种意图。
  • sign可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词。用作及物动词时,接名词、代词、that从句作宾语,还可接以动词不定式充当宾语补足语的复合宾语。
  • sign作“签名,签字”解时可用于被动结构,作“发信号,做手势”解时不用于被动结构。
  • sign接以动词不定式充当宾语补足语的复合宾语时,充当宾语的名词或代词前有时可加介词for或to。在sign接that从句作宾语的句子中也可加上to sb。
  • sign作名词“符号”，指事物在结构、尺寸、大小、形状和颜色等方面的特征；
  • sign在句子I have signed the cheque中，后面不能加to，in或on；
  • sign在句子He signed to her to enter the room（他做手势叫她进房间）中，后面跟的to可以省略，但一般不省略；
