请问standby 和 stand by 的区别。 是否都有待命的意思呢?
二者区别在于stand by 后面加“人”,而stand for 后面加“事物”。
根据牛津高阶双解字典,具体释义如下:
stand by sb. 表示“支持;帮助;忠于”。
例句: One should stand by his or her wife or husband.
一个人应当忠于他或她的另一半。
当stand by 后面加“事物”时(即 stand by sth),表示“依然遵守诺言(或协议等)”
例句:She still stands by every word she said.
她依旧恪守自己说过的每一句话。
stand for sth. 表示“支持;主张”=support sth.
例句:I hated the organization and all it stood for.
=I hated the ideas that it supported.
我厌恶那个组织,也厌恶它的一切主张。
