用法說明

How is "Rope" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Rope"?

rope into doing vs rope to do

  • rope into doing 表示「說服或哄騙某人去做某事」,強調的是透過勸說或計謀使某人參與一個活動或任務。這裡的 into 是介系詞,後面必須接動名詞 (V-ing)。
  • rope to do 在標準用法中並不正確。正確的結構是 rope someone in to do something,這裡的 in 是副詞,而 to do 是不定詞,表示說服某人參與是為了讓他去做後面的那件事。
  • 簡單區分:rope into 後面接的是「被說服去參與的活動本身」(名詞或動名詞);而 rope in 後面可以接 to 引導的「參與後要執行的具體動作」(不定詞表目的)。 EN: He roped me into helping with the move. 翻譯: 他說服我幫忙搬家。

EN:They roped in a few volunteers to set up the chairs.

翻譯:他們找來幾位志工來擺放椅子。

總結建議

使用 rope into doing 表示說服某人從事某項活動,而 rope someone in to do something 則表示找某人來是為了完成某項具體任務。

常見錯誤

What are common mistakes with "Rope"?Which "Rope" sentences look correct but are wrong?

×He roped the horse to the tree.

He tied the horse to the tree with a rope. / He roped the horse to the tree.

雖然 'rope' 作動詞時有「用繩子捆綁」的意思,但在許多情境下,母語者更常使用更通用的 'tie'。直接使用 'rope' 聽起來可能較不自然或過於具體。使用 'rope' 時,通常強調「使用繩索」這個工具本身。

×They roped the area for safety.

They cordoned off the area with a rope for safety.

'Rope' 作為動詞單獨使用時,通常不直接表示「圍起來」的完整動作。正確的用法是使用片語 'rope off' 來表示「用繩子隔離出一個區域」。

×I will rope you to help me.

I will rope you in to help me.

表示「說服或強拉某人參與某事」時,動詞 'rope' 必須與介系詞 'in' 或 'into' 連用,形成 'rope someone in' 或 'rope someone into (doing) something' 的片語。單獨使用 'rope' 是錯誤的。

×He used a rope to rope the mountain.

He used a rope to climb the mountain.

這裡混淆了名詞和動詞的用法。第一個 'rope' 是名詞「繩子」,但第二個 'rope' 作為動詞並不表示「攀爬」。'Rope' 在登山情境中作為動詞,意思是「用繩索連結(隊員)」或「用繩索確保」,而不是攀爬的動作本身。應使用更準確的動詞如 'climb'、'scale' 或 'ascend'。

×The situation is complex, I'm on the rope.

The situation is complex, I'm on the ropes.

表示「處於困境、瀕臨失敗」的慣用語是 'on the ropes'(複數),源自拳擊術語。使用單數 'rope' 是錯誤的。
