  • 词义辨析
  • argue, argue about
  • 这两个词(组)共同的意思是“辩论”。它们的区别是：
    argue通常指有理有据地辩论,而argue about常可用来表示无理无据地争辩。例如：
    Let's not argue that now.
    咱们现在不要争论那件事了。
    Let's not argue about it now.
    咱们现在不要为那件事抬杠了。
  • argue, debate, discuss, dispute
  • 这组词共同的意思是“辩论”“讨论”“争论”。其中最常用的是discuss,通过各种途径(摆事实或讲道理),分析各种观点(肯定的或否定的等),讨论各种问题(国家大事或日常小事等),采用各种方法(激烈争辩或平心静气探讨切磋)都可以用discuss。其他各词则各有侧重：argue强调主体确认自己的观点是正确的,引用单方面论据为自己辩解并批驳对方。debate强调公开地、有组织的讨论或辩论重大问题,口语中则强调不同观点激烈交锋。dispute则强调争论的激烈性,有争吵不休的味道,而内容则多为日常生活方面的事。例如：
    Columbus argued that the world was round.哥伦布论证了地球是圆的。
    They debated whether or not they should go to the movies.他们为是否该去看电影展开辩论。
    Jack disputed Bill's statement that he was a faster swimmer.贝尔自称游泳快,杰克就此与贝尔争论不休。

    He hated to have quarrelled with her. 他后悔跟她吵架。
    I argued with her about politics all day.就政见我和她争辩了一整天。
