有的动词后加个up构成短语,与原动词含义的不同之处?
请教老师,有的动词如save和pack,加上up构成短语save up和pack up后,含义和使用方法上与单独的动词用有哪些差别吗?
up 跟一些动词连用,构成短语动词。除去方位“向上”,还有哪些意思?
谈到up,它除去基本义是“向上”(goup, come up, get up, pick up, stand up, climb up, look up, put up, set up, takeup等等)以外,还有一个非常重要的使用方法,就是表示“完结和结束”,常常跟一些及物动词连用,这种动词一般与“消费和消耗”有关。比如:
use up:
用尽After he lost his job, he had to use up allhis savings.他失业后尽吃老本。
eat up: 吃光

sell up: 售完

sum up: 总结

pack up: 表示pack 的结果:“打包结束;打起包来”
save up:表示save 的结果:“储蓄起来;贮存起来”
在有时候,假如不突出“结果”意义,up 可以不需要。假如用了一般过去时和目前完成时,意思也差不多。
