v.(动词)

regret的基本意思是“懊悔,惋惜,遗憾”,指对于已经发生或不愿发生但又不得不发生的事情在心里产生一种伤感或抱歉,但已经没有挽回的余地。引申还可指“抱歉”。

regret既可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词。用作及物动词时,后接名词、代词、动名词或that/wh-从句作宾语。可用于被动结构。

regret后接名词,表示对某事后悔; 后接动词不定式表示因将要做某事而感到抱歉或不快; 后接动名词表示因做了某事而感到后悔; 后接从句表示对某事感到遗憾。

regret后接动词不定式的完成体也可表示对已发生之事感到遗憾、后悔,但不如接动名词常见。

n.(名词)

regret用作名词时意思是“懊悔,遗憾”,指对失落物的悲伤、惋惜,也指对已做过或没有成功的事表示懊悔或不愉快,也可指对自己无能为力做某事感到懊悔,常用作不可数名词。regret还可指“痛惜”“失望”“悔恨”“辞谢帖”等。

regret在表达一般的歉意时要用单数形式,由于谢绝而表示的歉意,则要用其复数形式或加much这个形容词。另外, regret在表示“辞谢帖”时多用复数形式。

regret前可用much, pttle, no等修饰,表示遗憾的程度。

用于“报告不开心的事”的表达方式有I regret that，I regret to say that，I regret to have to announce that等，语气的轻重不同。

I regret to tell you that my brother died yesterday afternoon.
我很遗憾地告诉你，我哥哥昨天下午去世了。

表示“因……而感觉悲哀或不开心”时，常在regret后接不定式。

I regret to hear of your sister's death.
我为你妹妹的死而感到悲哀。

表示“因……而感到后悔”时，常在regret后接动名词。

I regret causing him so much inconvenience.
我因让他如此不方便而感到后悔。

regret属于及物动词，后面通常不与介词for连用；

admit with regret表示“regret”或“admit”，通常不是指过分客气，就是指不够诚恳。

v.(动词)她对过去的错误感到悔恨。

误 She regretted for her past mistakes.

正 She regretted her past mistakes.

析 regret意为“悔恨”,是及物动词,后面直接跟宾语,不需加介词for。

我很抱歉地通知你,我们不能给你提供工作。

误 I regret informing you that we are unable to offer you employment.

正 I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you employment.

我遗憾地通知你,你的申请没有成功。

误 I regret informing you that your apppcation has been unsuccessful.

正 I regret to inform you that your apppcation has been unsuccessful.

我深深地后悔说了这些话。

误 I deeply regret to say these words.

正 I deeply regret having said these words.

析 表示“为将要做的事而遗憾”应该用regret to- v ; 表示“为已做的某事而懊悔〔遗憾〕”应该用regret v -ing。

n.(名词)不能赴约,谨致歉意。

误 Please accept my regret at having to refuse the invitation.

正 Please accept my regrets at having to refuse the invitation.

析 regret作名词指由于谢绝而表示的“歉意”时,用复数形式。

用作动词(v.)
