fraternize 为不及物动词,必须与介词 with 搭配使用,构成 fraternize with sb.。不可直接说 fraternize sb.。常见句型:主语 + fraternize with + 宾语。易错点:1)误将 with 省略;2)误用被动语态(如 *be fraternized with* 不常见);3)注意介词后接名词或代词宾格,不接动词原形。该短语无进行时限制,但多见于一般时态。
词义辨析
与 associate with 相比,fraternize with 更强调“亲密如兄弟”,且常含“不该亲近”的意味;associate with 为中性,仅表示“与…有联系”。socialize with 侧重社交活动,中性且口语化;fraternize with 更正式且带贬义。mix with 为口语表达,中性;mingle with 强调在人群中交际,中性。consort with 贬义更强,常指与坏人为伍;fraternize with 贬义稍弱,但同样暗示不当。选用时,若需中性表达“与…交往”,宜用 associate with 或 socialize with;若需暗示违规或不当,则用 fraternize with 或 consort with。
需要留意
该短语语域偏正式,常见于书面语、新闻和官方文件。褒贬色彩:现代英语中多含贬义,暗示与不应亲近者交往,尤其在军事、政治和职业伦理语境中。常见误用:1)用于中性描述普通社交,可能引起误解;2)混淆介词,误用 to 或 for;3)误作及物动词。使用时应确保语境能体现“不当亲近”的隐含意味,否则可换用更中性的表达。
