v. 写

write，write about。write和write about都是“写…”的意思，但write的宾语常用book，letter，report，composition等词，即“形式”；而write about的宾语则往往指写作的内容或题材，意思是“写关于…的事”。write sb，write to sb。两者均可指“给…写信”，write sb主要用在美式英语中，而write to sb主要用在英式英语中。write to-v，be writing to-v。write接动词不定式时可用于一般现在时，也可用于现在进行时。前者较为正式，多用于公文体中；后者较随便，多用于私人信函中。例如I write to inform you that we have made preparation现去函通知您我们已经做好准备。I am writing to inform you that she is leaving tomorrow.我通知你她明天要走。write，jot，pen。

这组词都有“写”的意思。它们的区别在于pen指“用钢笔写”，暗含“用心写”的意味；jot指匆匆写下，用什么笔写并不限制，其后常接down；write的含义最广泛，是日常用语，与前两个词相比，显得更大方、庄重，多指“写信”。例如He jotted her address down on his newspaper.他在报纸上草草记下了她的地址。The children are learning to write.孩子们正在学写字。下面各组中的句子或短语意思相同。We can't help him this time.Write back to tell him that he has to depend on himself.We can't help him this time.Write back telling him that he has to depend on him-self.这次咱们帮不了他，回信告诉他只能靠自己。Tell me more when you have time to write to me.Tell me more when you have time to write me.Tell me more when you have time to write a letter to me.Tell me more when you have time to write me a letter.有时间给我写信时，多告诉我一些情况。write a letter home
