fail词语用法

fail例句

fail常见错误

fail搭配

v.(动词)fail的基本意思是“失败”,指在从事某项工作时未能达到预定的目的,常常强调做了,但是没有成功; 还可指由于某事未能在头脑里形成深刻的印象或其他原因而将某事“忘记”。fail引申可指“不足,短缺,缺乏”“衰退,衰弱”“破产”“辜负”等。fail可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时接名词、代词或动词不定式作宾语。fail在作“不能,不会,不成功”解时,其后只能搭用不定式短语或介词in。fail在作“亏损”“销蚀”解时可用于进行体,此时多指人的体质。fail是表示状态的及物动词,不能用于被动结构。 n.(名词)fail用作名词时的意思是“考试不及格”,指在考试中失利,从而没能通过考试。常以单数形式出现。fail常用于without fail句型,表示“一定,必定,肯定”。 用作不及物动词(vi.)
