看到过资料上说 familiar 后接介词 with 与 to 都可以,只是意思不同,请问老师:具体是如何的不同?
龙老师:
若指某人熟悉某事物,familiar 后连用介词 with。如:
Are you familiar with these details? 你熟悉这些细节吗?
若指某事物为某人所熟悉,familiar 后连用介词 to。如:
His voice on the phone sounded familiar to me. 他在电话上的声音我听起来很熟悉。
比较下面两句:
We are familiar with his name. 我们熟悉他的名字。
His name is familiar to us. 他的名字我们熟悉。
