现代英语基本上属千“分析性语言"
(analytic language) ,
词语之间的语义关系主要不是通过词形变化而是通过相对固定的词序
(word order)
以及词语的搭配关系表示出来。在这种搭配关系中,介词起着特别重要的作用,可以说介词就是表示词语之间语义关系的词类。
介词与形容词、动词、名词之间有着广泛的搭配关系
要掌握介词的用法首先应注意这些搭配关系
1)
介词与形容词的搭配

country
rich

minerals?
He
is
intent
on
(一心想)
winning.

但不少形容词之后可跟不同的介词,表示不同的意义。例如:

of

(敏感)
The cat

lice.
(充满)
The
man
is
blind
of
an eye.(瞎)
Jack

(不觉察)
也有不少形容词之后可跟不同的介词,形容词的意义不变,有的只是其后的搭配不同
。比较
