v.(动词)

allow的基本含义一是“允许某人进入某地”“允许某人做某事”; 二是“给予某人金钱〔时间、物品、权力等〕”。引申可表示“承认,认为”。allow所表示的“允许”含有“有能力或有权阻止却默许、放任、不加阻止”,而“允许”其发生的意味。

allow主要用作及物动词,可用于被动结构,作“允许进入”解时其后可直接接表示方向的副词或介词,作“允许做某事”解时其后可直接接宾语,也可接双宾语,其间接宾语可转化为介词to的宾语,还可接以动词不定式(短语)作补足语的复合宾语。

allow作“允许”解时,其被动结构可以以人作主语,也可以以动名词作主语。作“给予”解时,可以以人作主语,也可以以物作主语。

allow作“承认”“认可”解时则可以接that从句或以“to be+ n./adj. ”充当补足语的复合宾语。

allow of作“许可”或“留有余地”解,其客体常由介词of引出,多用于否定的非人称结构。

allow作“考虑到”或“照顾到”解时,也是不及物动词,其客体常由介词for引出,主语只能是人。

allow在法律用语中可直接接claim表示“承认…正当”。

在美式英语中, allow还可作“说”或“声称”解。

allow有“给”的意思，后可以加双宾语。

He allows his son ￥10 a week.

permit和allow两词的用法和意思相近。两者可以通用，均指“允许”，且后面都可加宾语加不定式。当不存在宾语的时候，两词后加动名词。allow和permit还常用于被动语态。但allow可与副词搭配使用，而permit不行。此外，allow有“容许，并不禁止”的意思，而permit指“准许”，比allow更正式化。

Allow/Permit me to congratulate you on your success.

We do not allow/permit smoking in the kitchen.

Smoking is not allowed/permitted in the kitchen.

She wouldn't allow me in.

Nothing is permitted, everything is allowed.
一切都不准许，但也并不禁止。

allow of同admit of一样，指“有…的余地”。

allow for指“考虑，体谅”。

v.(动词)我们不允许人们在电影院吸烟。

析 表示“允许某人做某事”, allow后面要跟宾语加带to的动词不定式而不是动名词构成复合宾语。

正 Smoking is not allowed in the lecture hall.

析 allow一般不用it is not allowed to do sth 的结构。

析 allow of不能以人作主语。

人民银行付给存款三厘利息。

误 The People's Bank allows giving 3 per cent interest on deposits.
