v.(动词)

pay的基本意思是“付给”“付出”,指某人买东西或做某事所花费的金钱。引申可表示为“给予”。

pay既可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作不及物动词时,多作“合算,值得”解; 用作及物动词时,其搭配范围比较窄,主语只能是人,宾语常是人、钱或账单,而不能是其他物品,如果其客体是物品,则须用for引导。可用于被动结构。

pay可接双宾语,其间接宾语可转化为介词to的宾语。也可接由动词不定式或副词充当补足语的复合宾语。

n.(名词)

pay是不可数名词,意思是“工资,薪水”,指工作所得到的酬金,也可特指发给军人的薪饷,强调付了钱,不如salary和wages正式。

v.(动词)

pay, pay for

pay和pay for都表示“付钱”,其区别在于：当表示为所买的东西付钱时,一般用pay for,后面接表示货物的名词; 当表示向某人付款时,一般用pay,后面接表示受款人的名词。例如:

Will you pay the waiter?你愿意付钱给侍者吗?

We refused to pay them their wages.我们拒绝付给他们工资。

I'll pay for my ticket.我将为我的票付款。

How much did you pay for the book?那本书你付了多少钱?

pay down, pay up

这两个短语的意思不同,前者的意思是付一部分款,后者是全部付清。例如:

He paid $500 down and agreed to pay the rest in monthly installments.他先付500美元,余款答应分月支付。

If you don't pay up,I'll resort to the law.如果你不全部还清,我就要诉诸法律了。
