He shouted to her. 与 He shouted at her. 有无区别?
shout to 与 shout at 的意义有很大的区别。shout to sb. 表示“大声叫某人”或“大声对某人说话”,以引起注意,无辱骂或生气的暗含意义。例如:
-
He shouted to me to come. (OSD) 他喊我过来。
-
He shouted to me and warned me of the danger. (Palmer) 他向我大喊,警告我有危险。
-
In American football, the coach may shout to the captain to call time out.
A. yelp B. bellow C. growl D. flounder
而 shout at 则表示“生气地或敌意地对……大喊大叫”,含有责备的意思。例如:
-
Don't shout at me. (OSD) 不要对我大喊大叫。
-
If you don't stop shouting at me I'll come and hit you. (PEU) 你要是不停止冲着我叫嚷,我就过去揍你。
-
The children got very dirty and she shouted at them. (LEG) 孩子们弄得很脏, 她大声批评他们。
在 roar to/at, bellow to/at, mutter to/at 和 growl to/at 中, to 与 at 也存在着同样的区别。在这里 at 含有不友好的意思, 如同 laugh at 中的 at 含有不友好的意思一样。
-
The sergeant roared at the soldiers. (Chambers) 中士对战士们吼叫。
-
Sergeant Black bellowed orders to his troops. (TOEFL) 布莱克中士向他的士兵们大声发布命令。
