請教suggest表示暗示時的用法(要詳細)謝謝
suggest基本意思表示“建議”,所跟的從句常用虛擬語氣.It was suggested that English should be the only language spoken in the European Parliament.(有人建議歐洲議會只使用英語.)在suggest後面的從句中,英國人壹般會用should+動詞原形,而美國人只用動詞原形.當然suggest後面跟從句並不壹定表示“建議”.I never suggested that anyone has lied or should lie.(我從沒有表示過有人說過謊,或者應該說謊.)suggest還可以表示“暗示,喚起”.The arrangement of these pillars strongly suggests unity and support.(這些柱子的排列強烈暗示團結和支持.)His silence could only suggest disapproval.(他的沈默只能暗示反對.)
