v.(动词)

defend的基本意思是避开危险和进攻以保证安全,指使用某种方法避开实际的威胁或击退实际的攻击。引申可指坚持、捍卫某种行动、意见、决定或捍卫某种原则的纯洁性。

defend可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词,用作及物动词时,按名词、代词或that从句作宾语。偶尔也可接双宾语,可用于被动结构。

defend常与against连用表示“防守,捍卫”; 与from连用表示“保护…以防,使…免遭危害”。

v.(动词)

defend, assert, justify, maintain, vindicate

这组词都有“坚持”的意思。其区别在于:maintain指坚持维护某种主张或某一事物,暗示在反对意见面前或在争论当中怀有坚定不移的信念; assert强调把自己的信念强加于人或者企图硬要别人信服或认可; defend专指捍卫某种行动、意见、决定等以免受到非难、惩罚或责备; vindicate特指在受到非难、责备、轻视等时为自己辩明或剖白; justify指用无可辨别的理由“证明…有道理或有根据”。

v.(动词)他们的责任是防御敌人。

误

Their duty is to defend the enemy.

正

Their duty is to defend themselves against the enemy.

析

defend含义是“保卫自己,免受敌人攻击”,其宾语是保护的对象; against后接防御的对象。
她保护她的孩子不被疯狗咬伤。

误

She defended her children off the mad dog.

正

She defended her children from the mad dog.

析

表示“保护…使免遭危害”时, defend常与from连用。
