用法辨析
- square用作形容词时基本意思是“四方形的,直角的”,引申可指“平方的,适合的,公道的,平等的,老实的,(账)结清的,同高的,打成平局的,古板的,老式的,断然的”等解。
- square作“四方形的”“平方的”解时无比较级和最高级。
- square用于修饰长度名词时,放在其前表示的是“平方面积”,放在名词之后表示的是“见方面积”。
- square用作名词时基本意思是“正方形,方块”,引申可指“广场,广场四周的建筑物,平方,四角,方阵,直角尺,街区,小方格纵横字谜”等,是可数名词。
- square用于专有名词时,其前不加冠词。
- square作名词时意思是“正方形”,转化为动词意思是“使成方形”,引申可指“划成方格”“使打〔赛〕成平局”“使平衡”“放平”“解决分歧”“结账”“贿赂”等。
- square用作及物动词时,接名词或代词作宾语。
- 在表示“平方”时，主语five square feet与five feet square的意思不同。前者是“五平方英尺”，后者是“五英尺的平方”即“二十五平方英尺”；
- 在表示“广场”时，注意Tiananmen Square (天安门广场)，Belgrave Square，Russell Square，Grosvenor Square等前面都没有the。不过有特殊形式，如the People's Square要加the。
