今天分享的是之前提到的和控告相关的最后一个词incriminate /ɪnˈkrɪmɪneɪt/
【解词】
来源于拉丁词incriminare,原意是to accuse。
【释义/字典例句】
vt. to make someone seem guilty of a crime 暗示…有罪;使(某人)显得有罪;牵连
He claimed that the drugs had been planted to incriminate him.
【搭配】incriminate oneself
He refused to answer questions for fear he might incriminate himself.
【拓展】incriminating adj incrimination un.
At the hearing, detectives shared incriminating evidence that had been found on Harris’ compute.
He denies all the charges against him and has lodged special defences of alibi and incrimination.
【辨析】
Incriminate means to charge a person with a crime directly, or to involve him in a crime by damaging testimony. In popular use, the latter is the more usual meaning.
(incriminate用于刑事犯罪,可指直接控告罪犯;也可指因不利证词而受牵连,而后一用法更为常见。)
例句:He was incriminated in the conspiracy.
He was incriminated by an eyewitness who placed him at the scene of the crime.

recommend
【词源】its first known use happened in 14th century. Middle English, from Anglo-French "recommender".
【词义-搭配-例句】
1.its most widely known use: to advise sb to do sth, especially because you have special knowledge of a situation or subject. 劝告, 建议,称赞
用法:sb recommend that + clause虚拟语气; recommend doing sth; recommend sb sth; (recommend sb to do sth是错误用法)
She recommended us another restaurant. 她向我们推荐了另一家餐厅。
I recommended that you resign as soon as possible.我建议你尽快辞职。
2.when sth or sb is good,you will suggest them for a particular use or job.推荐,介绍
用法:recommend sth to sb; recommend sth for sb/sth; recommend sb as....; sth has much /little/nothing to recommend it
The teacher recommended it as a reference book.
老师将它作为参考书籍推荐给我们。
- entrust sth/sb to sb 交付,委托(recommend sb /sth to sb)
I recommended my child to her care. 我将孩子交由她来照顾。
【收获】
这个词是学生问的,查询后发现有新知识,比如词义上,有“交付给...;将... 委托给...”,这种没有遇到的意思;再有就是学习了一种表达,sth has sth has much /little/nothing to recommend it,中文中的乏善可陈,就可以用has little to recommend it。 词汇学习,以前只是学习到了它的高频词义和用法,并不全面,也比较难一下子做到每个词都全面,坚持学习,每日遇到点滴新鲜知识,总会些惊喜!
