Do not confuse the verb lie with the verb lay. Because lay is used to talk about putting something in a particular place or position, it is related to the verb lie. If someone lays something somewhere, it lies there. The past tense of lie is lay and the past participle is lain. It is an intransitive verb. I lay on the floor with my legs in the air. However, lay, whose past tense and past participle are both laid, is usually a transitive verb. They laid him on the floor.
不要混淆lie与lay这两个动词的用法。lay表示将某物放在某处或某个位置，意义上与动词lie有相关之处。某人将某物放（lay）在某处，那该物就放（lie）在那里。lie的过去式是lay，过去分词是lain，为不及物动词，如：I lay on the floor with my legs in the air（我躺在地上，双腿抬起）。而lay的过去式和过去分词均为laid，通常作及物动词，如：They laid him on the floor（他们把他放在地上）。

v.(动词)

lie的基本意思是指人“平躺〔卧〕”,也可表示“(使)某物平放”。

lie是不及物动词,常与around, down, in, on等词连用,不能用于被动结构。

lie有时可用作系动词,后接形容词(而不接副词)、现在分词或过去分词作表语。

lie可用于表示“存在”的There...句型中,位于there之后,主谓倒装。

lie作“展现”解时,多以物作其主语。

v.(动词)

lie的基本意思是“说谎”,指出于好意或恶意的目的说与事实截然矛盾的或根本不存在的假话。多用作不及物动词,有时也可用作及物动词,接that引导的从句作宾语。

n.(名词)

lie的基本意思是“说谎”,指为了欺骗别人,通过已有预谋地或故意地歪曲了事实真相而直接生硬地所说的假话,是可数名词。

在非正式文体中,可用lying代替lie。

v.(动词)

lie, lie in

lie的原意是“躺”,常可以引申为“在”“处在”;lie in用于抽象的情况下,常译为“在于”。试比较：

The harbour lies to the east of the city.

港口在城市东面。

The cure lies in education.

挽救之道在于教育。

v.(动词)

lie, be situated, nestle, stand

这组词(组)都可表示地理位置中的“位于”,其区别在于：

1.lie用于海、湖、都市、道路等平坦宽阔的地方。

2.be situated侧重地理位置或环境。例如:

The village is situated in a valley.村庄坐落在山谷中。

3.stand常用于建筑物,多想象为主体的体积。例如:

The house stands by the wayside.房子坐落在路边。

4.nestle的意思是“半隐半现地坐落在…之中”。例如:

The country house nestles among the pine trees.这个别墅半隐半现地位于松林之中。

n.(名词)

lie, lay

lie的过去式与lay的现在式同形,故极易混淆,其实这两个词区别很大。lay是及物动词,意为“把…置于”,而lie是不及物动词,意为“躺着,平放,位于”。前者表动作,后者表状态。试比较以下两个句子：

He laid his dictionary on the shelf.

他把词典放在书架上。

The dictionary is lying on the shelf.

那本词典放在书架上。

v.(动词)他卧床3天了。

误

误

He lay to his back and stared up at the ceiling.

正

He lay on his back and stared up at the ceiling.

析

lie on one's back(side)表示“仰(侧)卧”,习惯上用on,而不用to。
勤奋通向成功,失败在于懒惰。

误

Hard work lies in success and failure leads to laziness.

正

Success lies in hard work and laziness leads to failure.

正

Hard work leads to success and failure lies in laziness.

析

lead to是“…原因导致…结果”, lie in是“…结果存在于…原因之中”。注意区别因果关系。
v.(动词)对于此事,他向我撒了谎。

误

He lied me about it.

正

He lied to me about it.

析

lie表示“说谎”,是不及物动词,不能直接跟宾语。表示“对某人说谎”,应该说lie to sb。

正

You lied to me when you said you were out.
