v.动词
play, play at这两个词组都可以表示“玩”,在多数情况下可以互换使用。其区别是： 1.有些运动如golf, football或cricket一般不可用play at。例如: We are playing golf.我们正在打高尔夫球。2.从前说play at cards〔chess,billiards〕等,现在一般不用play at,而用play。例如: Do you like to play cards?你愿意玩牌吗?但如果比赛的对象或玩的伙伴为play的宾语时, at则不可省略。例如: Will you play me at chess?你愿意和我下象棋吗?3.to play tennis强调宾语:打网球; 而to play at tennis侧重动词:以打网球消遣,打网球玩。 4.在现代英语中,指成年人扮演角色时通常用play,而指孩子的模仿时常用play at。例如: The children played at soldiers.孩子们模仿士兵。
The men play soldiers.成年人扮演士兵角色。play ball with, collaborate with, cooperate with, team up with这组短语都表示“与…合作”的意思。其区别在于: cooperate是一般用语,强调“自愿”; collaborate有明显的感情色彩,与同伙人合作含褒义,与敌方合作表示“通敌”,含贬义; play ball with是非正式用法,多用于表示“狼狈为奸”; team up with则表示组成一个队或组共同做某事。 下面两句意思相同:We are going to play a team from the No. 6 Middle School. We are going to play with a team from the No. 6 Middle School.我们将同来自六中的运动队进行比赛。下面两个短语意思不同:play football 踢足球 play with football 玩弄一只足球 下面的句子可有三种不同的理解:They are playing with each other.他们在一起玩。他们在相互开玩笑。 他们在相互玩弄对方的感情。
n.名词
play, game, match, sport, tournament这组词的共同意思是“运动,竞技,比赛”。其区别在于: 1.sport一般指体力运动,如爬山、滑水、钓鱼等; game指常有一定的规则,而且决定胜负的脑力或体力劳动的“竞技”; match多指网球、足球、高尔夫球等运动项目的比赛,常用在英国; play泛指无目的或结果的消遣或娱乐活动; tournament指通过不同级别的比赛而夺魁的体育项目“比赛”“锦标赛”“联赛”。例如: Swimming, fishing and horse racing are his favorite sports.游泳、钓鱼和赛马是他最喜欢的运动。
The golf match will be held tomorrow morning.明天上午举行高尔夫球赛。
Which side won the football game yesterday?昨天的足球赛哪一队赢了?
He is fond of play.他喜欢玩。
The International Table Tennis Friendship Invitational Tournament will be held in China this year.今年的国际乒乓球友谊邀请赛将在中国举行。2.sport和game既可指室内也可指室外的活动; match和tournament一般指室外活动。 3.网球赛一局称game,加起来称为match。 下面各组中的两个短语意思不同:at play 在游戏 in play 开玩笑 be at play 在玩耍 be at the play 在看戏 bring into play 发挥 come into play 起作用 来自古英语plegan，忙于，从事，演奏音乐，玩耍。来自西日耳曼语支*plegan，忙于，从事于。来自原始印欧语*dlegh，忙于，从事于。来自原始印欧语*del，长的，词源同long, indulgent, pledge。并引申诸相关词义。 long来自古英语lang，长的。来自原始印欧语*dlonghos。来自原始印欧语*del的扩大形式，长的，字母d脱落，词源同indulgent, play, pledge。引申词义渴望。 indulgent来自indulgent，纵容，放纵。 pledge来自古法语plege，保证。来自原始日耳曼语*plego，责任，担保。来自原始印欧语*dlegh，忙于，从事于，责任，承诺。来自原始印欧语*del，长的，词源同long, play, plight。引申词义请求，许诺，誓言等。plen-全体的，全部的来自拉丁语plenus，满的。来自原始印欧语*pele，装满，填满，词源同full, fill。

v.动词
play的基本意思是指为了消遣和娱乐而进行身体的或精神的活动,即“玩,玩耍”,也可指与某人进行一场比赛,即“参加比赛”。play还可指“演奏乐器”。引申可指“开某人的玩笑”“扮演”“播放”“泉水等喷出”等意思。 play可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时接表示球或乐器等名词、代词或that从句作宾语。有时还可接双宾语,其间接宾语可转化成介词to或for的宾语,还可接由“as+ n./adj. ”充当补足语的复合宾语。可用于被动结构。play还可用作系动词,后接形容词或名词作表语。 当play后接名词用于演出中作“扮演”解时,一般析为及物动词; 作“假装…玩”解时,常析为系动词。 play作“玩,玩耍”解时一般用于儿童,而很少用于成年人。当play作“演奏”解时,不用于打击乐器如锣、鼓等。 play后接表示球类或牌等名词时,其前不加冠词the; 而接乐器时则必须加冠词the,在美式英语中the有时也可以省略。当play用于一般现在时时,宾语前不加冠词,表示经常或定期进行某项娱乐或活动。 play的进行体可表示按计划或安排即将发生的动作,此时句中一般伴有表示将来时间的状语或特定的上下文。 在非正式书面语体中, play有时能以表示乐器的名词作主语,作“演奏”解,其主动形式含有被动意义。
n.名词
play用作名词时意思是“游戏,玩耍”,指儿童用以玩乐而进行的各项活动。play也可指各种体育项目,即“比赛,竞赛,运动”,既可表示一次具体的“比赛”,也可表示在比赛中的“表现或作风”或“比赛中的动作或技巧”。play还可指“戏剧,剧本”。play引申可指“活动,作用,相互的影响”“活动的范围或余地”“闪动,浮动”“赌博”“机会”等。 play通常用作不可数名词,但在作“比赛的动作或技巧”解时可用作可数名词,一般其前都有一个形容词修饰。play作“戏剧,剧本”解时可用作可数名词。 play单用时，表示“玩某种游戏”，有时可说play at，如play at football； play单用时，还可表示“游玩”，但只限用于儿童，不可以用在成人身上。 These boys play in the garden every morning.这些男孩们每天早晨都在花园里游玩。play with表示“玩某物”，如play with a ball； 表示“弹奏乐器”，现习惯上但用play，而不是play upon，如play the violin。
