24.suspect
Definition定义:
v. 1. To think that something is probably true or likely, especially something bad. 猜测
2. to think that someone is probably guilty. 怀疑 (觉得某人有嫌疑)
3. to distrust someone or doubt the truth of something. 怀疑
Examples 例:
1. I suspected (that) he was lying. 我猜想他是在撒谎。
2. No one knows who killed her, but the police suspect her husband. 没人知道是谁杀了她,但警方怀疑是她的丈夫。
2. I have no reason to suspect her honesty. 我没有理由怀疑她的诚实。
汉语中的“怀疑”有两个基本含义,一是“不相信”,相当于英文中的“doubt”;二是“猜测”,表示“可能性”,相当于英文的“suspect”。suspect的本意是to believe someone to be guilty without any proof,也就是没有确凿证据的怀疑或猜测,也就是说,可以用suppose, guess或think it likely等来替代,表示“猜测”的可能性,例:
I suspect that you may be right. 我猜想你是对的。
这句话可以用“suppose”等改成下面的句子:
I suppose that you are right.
而“doubt”的“猜测”“方向”正好相反,表示“不可能”,把上面的句子改成:I doubt that you are right. 我怀疑你是否正确。(我不相信你是正确的)
相当于说:I don’t think you are right.
另:suspect 这个词也可用作名词,意为嫌疑人;或用作形容词,意为有嫌疑的、可疑的。
