remind of/remind about

核心问题

Don't forget to remind me about it.

我查了许多英汉词典,只查到 remind sb. of,而未查到 remind sb. about。后一用法是否正确?

词典解答

remind sb. of 亦可用作 remind sb. about。不过后者不像前者用得那么普遍。请看下面的实例:

  1. I may forget to repay the five pounds you lent me unless you remind me of [about] it. (Wood) 如果你不提醒我,我可能会把你借给我的那5英镑钱忘记还给你。

  2. Did you remind him about that book he borrowed? (Wood) 你提醒过他他借的那本书了吗?
