词语用法

n.(名词)
    pity的基本意思是“怜悯,同情”,指在别人遭遇不幸时所产生的怜悯之情,是不可数名词,一般不与不定冠词连用。 pity也可作“可惜的事,令人遗憾的事”解,为可数名词,但往往只用于单数形式,前面常加不定冠词a,常用于“It is/was a pity...”结构,其后可接动词不定式,也可接that从句。在口语中that可以省略, that从句中有时可用虚拟语气。有时还可以把it is省去,直接用pity作为句子的开头。 pity也常用于“What a pity”结构中,其后可接动词不定式或that从句。 pity有时也可用于反语,表示鄙视之情,指鄙视地怜悯那些由于不幸或天生较弱而条件不优越者。
v.(动词)
    pity的基本意思是“同情”,即对某人遭受不幸时表示怜悯。有时可用于反语,表示“认为(某人)可鄙”。 pity是及物动词,接名词、代词作宾语,可用于被动结构。

常见错误

n.(名词)
  1. 她对穷人总是抱着同情心。

    She is always filled with a pity for poor people.

    She is always filled with pity for poor people.

    你们不能接受我的邀请,真是遗憾。

    Its pity that you cant accept my invitation.

    Its a pity that you cant accept my invitation.

    真可惜,你当时没和我们在一起!

    What pity you were not with us!

    What a pity you were not with us!

    pity是抽象名词,前面一般不加a。但当表示“可惜的事,憾事”或用于感叹句等特殊句型时,前面应该加a。

    他怜悯那只无家可归的动物。

    He took a pity on the homeless animal.

    He took pity on the homeless animal.

    have〔take〕 pity on是固定短语, pity 前无冠词。

    这个女孩多可怜!

    What a pity girl she was!

    What a piteous girl she was!

    pity一般不修饰名词作定语,须改用其同根形容词piteous。
