v.(动词)

1. love的基本意思是“爱恋,热爱,喜欢”,指某人特别喜爱某人、某物或做某件事情。还可引申表示对某人、某物的敬拜或以仁爱之心对待某事。不仅表示强烈的喜欢,而且表示炽热的依恋。用于能激起高尚情感的人或事。love有时也用于不太重要的事物,是like的强势语。
2. love可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时,可接名词、代词、动词不定式或动名词作简单宾语,还可接以动词不定式充当补足语的复合宾语。可用于被动结构。

n.(名词)

1. love的基本意思是“喜爱,热爱”,是不可数名词,指人对某人或某事情有独钟。可指家庭成员、亲戚朋友间的爱,也可指男女间的情爱、性爱。在非正式口语中可指招人喜爱的人或物,此时是可数名词。
2. love还可以作“心上人,情人”解,是可数名词,通常指女不指男。
3. love可用a great, much等修饰,其后常接介词for。
4. love可用作称呼语,用来称呼爱人、妻子或孩子,相当于darling或honey。
5. 在体育比赛(尤其是网球赛)的口头报道中,可表示“比分为零”。

1. love在表示“恋爱的对象”时，一般说的是女性，不指男性，不过现在sweetheart的用法比较普遍；
2. 信函中用以表示“请向……致意”时，可用表达方式With love to ...；
3. fall in love with的用法：表示一时的动作，所以不可用于完成时态。fall in love with表示心理上的动作，没有表示的动作，对方不一定知道主语的心意。因此，就算they have fallen in love with each other，但因不知道对方的心意，未必“心心相印”。fall in love with或be in love with还可用于非生命物体。

   He has fallen in love with her for years.
   该说He fell in love with her years ago。

   He fell into love with the idea at once.
   She is quite in love with the garden.

4. love与like的比较：作动词时，其语气强过like。love常用作like。相同的是，两者后面都可接不定式或动名词。表示一时的爱好时，常接不定式，不接动名词。但是表示常时间的的爱好时，不定式或动名词都可接。但是动名词在表示简单的动作或情况时比不定式普遍，而不定式在表示复杂的情况时比动名词普遍。

   She likes him but doesn't love him.
   她喜欢他，但不爱他。

   I love ice cream.
   I love going to the cinema.

   He would like/love to dance with us tonight.

   He likes/loves dancing.
   He likes to see his children at play.

n.(名词)

两年前他就爱上她了。

误 He has fallen in love with her for two years.

正 He fell in love with her two years ago.

析 fall in love with表示非延续性的动作,其现在完成时不可与表示一段时间的状语连用。

她与我相恋有几年了。

误 I have fallen in love with her for years.

正 I fell in love with her years ago.

正 I have been in love with her for years.

析 “fall in love”(爱上)通常指一时的动作,而“be in love”(热恋着)指状态。

• ☆ 直接源自古英语的lufu；最初源自原始日耳曼语的lubo，意为爱，亲情，友情。
