词语用法

n. (名词)

1. game用作名词的意思是“游戏,运动,比赛”,也可表示比赛中的“一局、一盘或一场,比分,比赛规则”。引申可表示“策略,诡计”,是可数名词。
2. game也可指游戏或运动的“器材”,是可数名词。
3. game也可表示“行业,行当”,是可数名词,属非正式用法。
4. game还可表示“猎物”,不可数,此时前面不可加不定冠词a。
5. game的复数形式games的意思是“运动会,竞技赛”,与定冠词the连用,在特指某届〔次〕运动会时其谓语动词用单数形式,统指(多届的)运动会时其谓语动词用复数形式,作专有名称时首字母常大写。

adj. (形容词)

1. game作“勇敢的,有决心的,敢作敢为的”解时在句中可用作定语或表语。
2. game也可作“愿意的,心甘情愿的”解,在句中多用作表语,与介词for连用。
3. 在口语中, game还可作“残疾的; 瘸的”解,属古旧用法。

词义辨析

n. (名词)

game, match, play, sport, tournament

• 这组词的共同意思是“运动,竞技,比赛”。其区别在于:
• 1.sport一般指体力运动,如爬山、滑水、钓鱼等; game指常有一定的规则,而且决定胜负的脑力或体力劳动的“竞技”; match多指网球、足球、高尔夫球等运动项目的比赛,常用在英国; play泛指无目的或结果的消遣或娱乐活动; tournament指通过不同级别的比赛而夺魁的体育项目“比赛”“锦标赛”“联赛”。例如:
• Swimming, fishing and horse racing are his favorite sports.游泳、钓鱼和赛马是他最喜欢的运动。
• The golf match will be held tomorrow morning.明天上午举行高尔夫球赛。
• Which side won the football game yesterday?昨天的足球赛哪一队赢了?
• He is fond of play.他喜欢玩。
• The International Table Tennis Friendship Invitational Tournament will be held in China this year.今年的国际乒乓球友谊邀请赛将在中国举行。
• 2.sport和game既可指室内也可指室外的活动; match和tournament一般指室外活动。
• 3.网球赛一局称game,加起来称为match。

下面两个短语意思不同:

• play games 做游戏
• play the game 守规矩

athletics，sport，game

• 这些名词均有“体育运动”之意。
• athletics集合名词，常指需要体力与技术的sports与games，特指跳高、跑等竞技项目。
• sport含义比athletics广泛，指各种形式的体育运动，尤指户外的如游泳、钓鱼、划船、登山等运动。
• game主要指决定胜负的游戏、比赛，通常有一定的规则，参加者必须遵守，如篮球、足球等。也作“运动会”解。

常见错误

n. (名词)

1. 在这个保护区内不允许打猎。

   误 People are not allowed to hunt any games in the protective area.

   正 People are not allowed to hunt any game in the protective area.

   析 game表示“猎物”时,是不可数名词,因此在词尾加s是错误的。

2. 国际象棋是一种节奏很慢的游戏。

   误 Chess is a very slow play.

   正 Chess is a very slow game.

3. 这剧本是谁写的?

   误 Who wrote the game?

   正 Who wrote the play?

   析 game的意思是“游戏”,国际象棋、足球和桥牌等都属游戏类。play的意思是“剧本”,指为剧场或电视演出而写的文艺作品。
