3. remind常和介词of连用,表示“提醒注意未来的事”或“使想起过去的事”的内容, of的宾语可以是名词、动名词,也可以是疑问词引导的从句。
4. remind作“提醒”解时与remind about同义,其主语只能是人,作“使想起”解时主语通常是事物。

词义辨析

v. (动词)

remind sb to-v, remind sb of v-ing

• remind接双宾语时其直接宾语可以是动词不定式,也可以是介词短语“of+ v -ing ”。它们之间的区别是：前者指将来发生的事情,而后者则指过去发生过的事情。试比较以下两个句子：
• He reminded me to answer the letter.
• 他提醒我回这封信。
• He reminded me of my answering the letter.
• 他提醒我已经回过这封信了。

remind, mind, recall, recollect, remember

• 这组词的共同意思是“回忆”“记起”。它们之间的区别在于：
• 1.mind指通过媒介或激发力而“想起”,是方言用法。
• 2.recall指有意识地记起了过去的事情,还可表示由于看到的东西与往事相似而引起回忆。例如:
• I can still recall your saying to me that you were going to be a lawyer.我还记得清你对我说过你要当律师的事。
• I don't recall where to meet her.我不能记起在哪儿见过她。
• I don't recall how to do it.我不能记忆起怎样做那事。
• 3.remember则有可能是有意识地,也可能是不由自主地记住。例如:
• Now,I remember.We met for the first time in the Dabie Mountains.哦,我想起来了。我们第一次是在大别山见面的。
• I have never had this kind of experience since I can remember.自我记事以来,我从来没有这样的经历。
• She caught herself remembering how things were there twenty years before.她不由自主地回想起20年前那里的情景。
• 4.remind指通过媒介或激发力而“想起”。 例如:
• The picture reminded him of his home and family in Taiwan.这幅画使他想起了在台湾的故乡和亲人。
• The time of year reminds me how the months have gone.每年这个时候都使我想起那些月份是怎么过去的。
• 5.recollect可表示轻松愉快或沉思默想地回忆某事。例如:
• She sat there quietly and began to recollect their happy holidays.她静静地坐在那儿,开始回忆起他们愉快的假日。

memorize，remember，recall，recollect，remind

• 这些动词均有“记忆、记住、回忆”之意。
• memorize指有意识的下功夫把某事的整个细节都记在脑子里。
• remember含义较广，多指无意识地回忆起往事，也可指通过主观努力去记忆。
• recall比remember文雅，指想方设法回忆已经遗忘之事。
• recollect指在记忆中搜索，设法想起一时想不起的事情或人，强调过程。
• remind指经某人或某事的提醒而回忆起某件已遗忘之事。

常见错误

v. (动词)

1. 这些照片使我想起了幸福的童年时代。

   误 These pictures remind me to think of my happy childhood.

   正 These pictures remind me of my happy childhood.

   析 remind已经含有cause sb to think of的意思,后面不能再加think。

2. 我很高兴你提醒了我这件事。

   误 I am glad you reminded me this matter.

   正 I am glad you reminded me of this matter.

3. 他勾起了我对他父亲的诸多往事的回忆。

   误 He reminds me so much his father.

   正 He reminds me so much of his father.

   析 表示“提醒某人有关某事”“使某人想起某事”时,不能用remind sb sth 结构,但可用remind sb of sth 这一结构。

4. 秘书提醒我给妻子打个电话。

   误 The secretary reminded me of phoning my wife.

   正 The secretary reminded me to phone my wife.

5. 请提醒我明天吃药。

   误 Please remind me of taking my medicine tomorrow.

   正 Please remind me to take my medicine tomorrow.

6. 请提醒我把这些信寄出去。

   误 Please remind me of posting the letters.

   正 Please remind me to post the letters.

   析 “提醒某人做某事”,应该说remind sb to- v ,用动词不定式充当宾语补足语,而remind sb of v -ing表示“使某人想起做过某事”。

7. 他提醒我4点必须参加一个会议。

   误 He reminded that I must attend a meeting at four o'clock.

   正 He reminded me that I must attend a meeting at four o'clock.

   析 remind不可接that从句作简单宾语。句中代词me和that从句一起作remind的双宾语。
