  • 词义辨析
  • own to, own up
  • 这两个短语都表示“坦白地承认”的意思。它们的区别是：
    1.含义上, own to侧重承认的内容,而own up侧重承认时的“爽快劲儿”。例如:
    You'd better own up.你还是坦白为好。
    He owns to the theft.他承认偷了东西。
    2.用法上, own to中的to是介词,接名词或动名词; own up中的up是副词,表示承认的内容时还须加“to+ n./v -ing”。
  • own, acknowledge, admit, confess
  • 这四个词都有“公开承认”的意思。它们的区别是：
    1.acknowledge和admit所承认的是不对的或不光彩的事实; confess指承认“错误及罪行”; own承认的不一定是“错误及罪行”,只是一般地表明自己的感觉及处境。例如:
    He acknowledged that he was your inferior.他承认他不及你。
    Did he admit to stealing it?他承认是他偷的吗?
    He confessed where he had hidden the money.他供出了他藏钱的地方。
    2.acknowledge强调在一定压力下承认, admit强调勉强承认。例如:
    Dan acknowledged himself as criminal.达恩承认自己是罪人。
    I admit to a natural fear.我承认生来胆小。
    3.acknowledge所承认的一般是隐蔽的, admit, confess和own所承认的不一定是隐蔽的。例如:
    Jane acknowledged using her father's motor-car.珍妮承认用了她父亲的摩托车。
    They admitted my statement to be reasonable.他们承认我的陈述有道理。
    The police have confessed themselves completely puzzled by this strange crime.警方承认他们完全被这桩奇特的罪案搞糊涂了。
    4.confess语气上较强,属正式语体; own则不如confess正式。
    5.这四个词用作及物动词时,都可接简单宾语或复合宾语,除own外,其他词都可接动名词。admit, confess和own用作不及物动词都可与介词to搭配,其后都可接动名词。例如:
    They acknowledged having been defeated.他们认输了。
    He confessed taking part in a plot to free the prisoner.他供认自己参与了企图营救那个囚犯的密谋。
    She admitted having done wrong.她承认自己做错了。
  • own, have, have got, hold, occupy
  • 这组词(组)共同的意思是“有”“拥有”“具有”。它们的区别是：
    1.have既可指有生命物及无生命物之间的所属关系,也可指部分与整体的关系,或指精神上、身体上的特点; have got与have意义相同,但在口语中比have用得广泛; own则指具有在法律上的所有权,即使不在身边的东西,只要拥有法律上的所有权,就应用own; hold语气较强,有占据、控制、抓住〔保持〕住某物的意思; 而occupy则指占有空间、时间或占领、占据某地,或拥有某种职务或地位等。例如:
    I didn't have the books that she asked for.我没有她所要的书。
    Your books have got all over the place.你的书到处都是。
    They don't hold the power to hire or fire at will.他们没有雇用或随意解雇的权力。
    Enemy troops occupied the country.敌军占领了这个国家。
    2.have是普通用语,在这几个词中概念最广,运用最广泛。own的主语只能是人。例如:
    These enterprises are owned by him.这些企业是属于他的。
  • own, possess
  • 这两个词都有“有”的意思。它们的区别是：
    1.own强调具有合法权利占有、继承某物作为财产的意思,所占有的物必须有相当的价值; possess则不管采用何种方法得到。例如:
    The police asked me if I possessed a gun.警察问我是否有一支枪。
    His family owned neither land nor house.他家既无房子又无土地。
    2.possess只用于好的事物,而own则好坏都可。
  • own, belong
  • 这两个词都有“属于,拥有”的意思。它们的区别在于:
    1.belong指物属于谁; 而own指人拥有物。
    2.belong是不及物动词,常与介词一起构成及物的短语动词; 而own是及物动词,可直接接宾语。
    3.belong只有主动语态; 而own则可以用于被动语态。
