英语:英语中各种“穿”的表达方法-Wear, put on, dress,in的区别

英语中有些单词翻译后都可以用一个汉语意思来表达,给我们的英语学习造成了不少麻烦。其中Wear, put on, dress, in这几个英语单词都能表示“穿”的意思,它们的区别如下:
1, Wear
Wear意为“穿着;戴着”,表示状态。当我们wear衣服、鞋子、珠宝时,表明这些东西在我们身体上。

  • She was wearing a beautiful diamond necklace with matching earrings.
  • She is wearing a red coat

另外,Wear还有一种用法,表示“磨损”的含义。我们说事物或精力用久了以后,变薄、变小或精力不济了。

  • This carpet is beginning to wear. We shall soon have to replace it.
  • He is such an annoying person. My patience is wearing thin.
  • If you didn’t play football every day, your shoes wouldn’t wear out so quickly.
  • Don’t rush around so much. You’ll wear yourself out.
  • I’ve spent all day shopping and I feel quite worn out.

2, Put on
短语Put on表示“穿上、戴上”,强调“穿”“戴”的动作。当然们说put on衣服时,表明我们的目的是wear这件衣服。当我们不想wear时,就要把它们take off. 另外的用法还有“put on weight(增肥)”,其反义词是“lose weight”。

  • Take that shirt off and put on a new one. You can’t go out in such an old shirt.
  • The amateur dramatic company put on a new show, but had to take it off after three days as nobody came.
  • The casserole is in the oven. Put the potatoes on now and put the rice on in five minutes.
  • I thought I was going to put some weight on on holiday, but I lost half a kilo as I swam every day.
  • Why don’t you put that new CD on so that I have some music while I’m ironing?

3, Dress
Dress的宾语通常是人,意思是“给……穿衣服”。dress oneself 或 get dressed表示给自己穿衣服。
“dress up”表示“盛装打扮、乔装打扮”;“dress down”表示穿着不合时宜。

  • You’d better get dressed now. Henry will be here in ten minutes.
  • She came in covered in mud. So I bathed her and dressed her in new clothes.
  • I must dress now for the party. Have you dressed the salad yet?
  • I think it’s better not to dress that wound. We’ll just leave it so that the air can get to it.
  • It is customary now to dress down in certain offices in the city on Fridays. There is no need to wear a suit.
  • I just love dressing up and Edward’s having an Edwardian party on Saturday.

另外,Be dressed in表示穿着的状态,一般用来表示特定环境下特定的装束,具有一定的目的性。

  • She was dressed in a multi-layered organdie gown with a duchess satin opera coat for the open-air production of Don Giovanni. Her chaperone was wearing a white dinner jacket.

4, in
in 穿着;戴着。是介词,以衣物或表示颜色的名词作宾语,表示状态。

  • My brother is in a blue jacket.
  • The boy in a blue jacket is my brother.
  • My brother is in blue.
