不規則動詞

不規則動詞,英語動詞按其過去式過去分詞的構成方式可分為規則動詞和不規則動詞。規則動詞的過去式和過去分詞由詞尾加-ed構成,結尾是e時,只加d,結尾是y時,將y改為ied。而不規則動詞的變化因詞而異。[1]

定義

英語單詞中由動詞原形轉變為過去式和過去分詞時不按詞尾加"-ed"之變化規則者叫做不規則動詞(irregular verbs)。

現代英語新生成的動詞都歸入"-ed"的規則變化,例如:

park→parked (停車--1864) [2]

fax→faxed (以傳真傳送--1979)

e-mail→e-mailed (以電腦網絡傳送--1982)

(所附年次為最早用例出現年次--O.E.D.)

因此,不規則動詞可以說都是古英語動詞的不規則變化因其常用度很高而一直沿用到今天者,所以我們今天在學習英語時絕對無法規避,也不可能規避這些不規則動詞。

從英語的演變來看,不規則動詞就是強勢動詞(strong verbs)--即其詞形變化全依其本身之語音(尤其是元音)變化來進行而不藉助詞尾的變化。例如:

原形

過去式 過去分詞 buy(買) bought bought sing(唱) sang sung speak(講) spoke spoken 我們學習不規則動詞的時候,最有效的方法就是要針對這種詞形變化的現象,了解其變化的型式,發出聲音背念,使其能自然地融入我們的speaking和writing,這樣才能說確實地把不規則動詞學會了。

注:與強勢動詞相對,須藉助"-ed"之詞尾來進行詞形變化的規則動詞就叫做弱勢動詞(weak verbs)。

識記方法

(1)原形、過去式、過去分詞相同(A-A-A型):

cast/cost/cut/hit/hurt/let/put/broadcast/burst/read/red/set/shut/spread/thrust/upset

(2)原形、過去式相同,過去分詞不同(A-A-B型):

beat/beat/beaten

(3)原形、過去分詞相同,過去式不同(A-B-A型):

come/came/come become/became/become

run/ran/run overcome/overcame/overcome

(4)原形不同,過去式,過去分詞相同(A-B-B):

1.在動詞原形後加一個輔動詞d或t構成過去式或過去分詞。

2.把動詞原形的最後一個輔音字母"d"改為"t"構成過去式或過去分詞。

(5)現在式,過去式,過去分詞都不同(A-B-C型):

1.在動詞原形後加-n或-en構成過去分詞。

2.過去式加-n或-en構成過去分詞。

3.變單詞在重讀音節中的的元音字母"i"分別為"a"(過去式)"u"(過去分詞)。
