用法说明

lay, lie

这两个词容易混淆。其区别在于:lay是规则动词,但是拼写法不规则。其不定式、现在分词、过去式、过去分词形式分别是:lay, laying, laid, laid,可作“小心地放下”或“放平”等解,为及物动词。

lie是不规则动词,其相应的形式是:lie, lying, lay, lain,可作“躺下”、“平躺”解。当lie作“撒谎”解时,为规则动词,是不及物动词。试比较:

I lay in bed in the dormitory.我躺在宿舍的床上。

He lied (to them) about his age in order to get the job.他为了得到那份工作(向他们)谎报了年龄。

The hen laid an egg in the hen house which lay on the hill.这只母鸡在放在山岗上的那个鸡舍里下了一个蛋。(laidlay不能互换)
