  • 词义辨析
  • be due to, owe...to
  • 二者共同的意思是“欠”。它们的区别是:
    1.owe是动词; due是形容词。例如:
    She owes ten dollars to her sister.她欠她姐姐10美元。
    Any money that is due to you will be paid before the end of this month.欠你的钱将在这月底之前全部支付给你。
    2.owe...to常译为“欠某人的债”,用于比喻可表示对“某人负有义务或名誉,功劳应归于…”; 而due一般译为“应付给”,用以表示原因。例如:
    Our grateful thanks are due to the police department for their help in the making of this film.我们由衷感谢警方在制作这部影片的过程中给予我们的帮助。
  • due to, beause of
  • 参见because条。
  • due to, owing to
  • 这两个短语都可作“由于,因为”解。owing to表示的理由有直接性,常用作口语,是介词短语,在句中的位置一般没有限制; due to表示的理由同样带有直接性,但在句中多用作表语。
