{词义辨析}
accept, receive, admit, take
这些动词均有“接受、接纳”之意。
accept: 强调主动地或自愿地接受,或者说,经过考虑后同意接受。
receive: 着重仅仅接到或收到这一结论或事实,而不含采取主动或积极行动的意思。
admit: 作“接受”讲时,强调准许或批准。
take: 与receive同意,是receive的日常用法,侧重不带主观意愿地收下或接受。
{语法用法}
同receive不同,accept是“接受”,而receive是“收到”。accept a present是“接受一个礼物”
,不会退还,而receive a present是“收到一个礼物”,有可能会退还;
accept和accept of以前可以替换使用,现accept of用的比较少,往往带有“正式”或“垂恩”之意
。只适用于说接受present,favour,love,hospitality等,不适于接受theory,advice,apology,
challenge,offer,invitation,ruling等;
单独用作“接受邀请或条件”等意思,
If you accept, please let me know immediately.
