resent的基本意思是“憤恨; 憎惡”,主要用于表示對他人(有關自己)的言行的不滿或怨恨。
resent可用作及物動詞,也可用作不及物動詞。用作及物動詞時接名詞或動名詞作賓語,間或可接that引起的賓語從句。
resent不用來表示一般地不贊成或討厭某些與己無關的事。例如: 我不喜歡年輕人吸煙。誤:I resent young people smoking.正:I dislike young people smoking.
resent后面不能以人稱代詞作賓語。例如: 她批評了他的行為,但他對這點并沒有感覺不滿。誤:He did not resent her although she had criticized his conduct.正:He did not resent her criticism of his conduct.
下列兩句的意思相同: 我厭惡他在這里。I resent his being here.I resent that he is here.
