v.动词
clutch, clutch at这两个词组的共同意思是“抓”。前者指已经在手的东西; 后者指尚未到手的东西。 clutch, grab, grasp, seize, snatch, take这组词都可表示“伸出手或臂去抓住某物”。其区别在于:take仅指抓住具体的东西; clutch强调匆匆忙忙、紧急、迫不及待,因而抓住的可能性较小,引申可用于思想上或情感上的把握; grab常含有庸俗和不关心他人或无视公共准则的意思; grasp的基本意思是指用手、牙齿、爪等紧紧抓住某人或某物,引申指能充分理解难以理解的东西; seize通常指突然地、有力地抓住,引申用于无形的东西时,往往强调该物在快速掠过或难以捉摸,或强调有力地、出人意料地夺取,或强调理解了难以理解或难以分析的事物; snatch强调不为人知、救人及时或动作粗暴,引申指偶然地或无准备地抓住能抓住的东西。例如: She clutched at my arm as she fell.她跌倒时想要抓住我的胳臂。
He grabbed the coin and ran off.他抓起硬币就跑了。

The letter was snatched out of my hand before I could read it.那封信我还没来得及看就被别人从我手里拿走了。take，grasp，grab，grip，clasp，clutch，snatch，seize这些动词均有“抓住，握紧”之意。 take最普通用词，不带感情色彩。指用手抓、取某东西或控制某物。 grasp指紧紧抓住、抓牢。 grab指粗暴而急迫的抓住。 grip语气比grasp强，指用手的最大力量紧紧抓住。 clasp指用手紧握或用臂紧抱。 clutch强调匆忙、紧急地抓、抓紧。 snatch指突然抢走，侧重动作更快或更具暴力性质。 seize指突然抓住某物，强调突然的猛烈动作。 直接源自古英语的clyccan，意为抓紧。
