deceive和cheat有什么区别?
deceive和cheat的区别主要有以下3点:
1、含义不同
Cheat 是日常很通用的骗,包括善意的欺骗,例如妈妈为了保护孩子的牙齿,骗孩子说家里没有巧克力了,都可以用cheat,有哄的意思。如:
The mother cheated the child that there was no chocolate at home.孩子的妈妈骗孩子说家里没有巧克力了。
Deceive 是诈骗,通常指诈骗金钱与财物,deceive不能用于表达善意的欺骗。如:
He deceived $500,000 from the bank but was arrested last month.他诈骗了银行五十万元,但上月被捕了。
2、词性不同
cheat可以作不及物动词,指在考试、买卖、竞赛中的欺骗行为。如:
He never cheats to pass examination.他考试从不作弊。
而deceive却只能作及物动词。如:
It's not honorable to deceive them.欺骗他们是不光彩的。
3、用法不同
deceive用于被动语态的句子中或当deceive后面用反身代词时,常常强调“弄错了”的结果,不一定是有意识的欺骗;。而cheat则没有此用法。如:
You are deceiving yourself if you still believe that she loves you.你如果还相信她爱你,你就是在欺骗自己。
