to 的英文释义

• prep.

  The preposition to primarily indicates approach and arrival,

• motion made in the direction of a place or thing and attaining it,

• access; and also, motion or tendency without arrival; movement toward;

• -- opposed to from.

• prep.

  Hence, it indicates motion, course, or tendency toward a

• time, a state or condition, an aim, or anything capable of being

• regarded as a limit to a tendency, movement, or action; as, he is going

• to a trade; he is rising to wealth and honor.

• prep.

  In a very general way, and with innumerable varieties of

• application, to connects transitive verbs with their remoter or

• indirect object, and adjectives, nouns, and neuter or passive verbs

• with a following noun which limits their action. Its sphere verges upon

• that of for, but it contains less the idea of design or appropriation;

• as, these remarks were addressed to a large audience; let us keep this

• seat to ourselves; a substance sweet to the taste; an event painful to

• the mind; duty to God and to our parents; a dislike to spirituous

• liquor.

• prep.

  As sign of the infinitive, to had originally the use of last

• defined, governing the infinitive as a verbal noun, and connecting it

• as indirect object with a preceding verb or adjective; thus, ready to

• go, i.e., ready unto going; good to eat, i.e., good for eating; I do my

• utmost to lead my life pleasantly. But it has come to be the almost

• constant prefix to the infinitive, even in situations where it has no

• prepositional meaning, as where the infinitive is direct object or

• subject; thus, I love to learn, i.e., I love learning; to die for one's

• country is noble, i.e., the dying for one's country. Where the

• infinitive denotes the design or purpose, good usage formerly allowed

• the prefixing of for to the to; as, what went ye out for see? (Matt.

• xi.

  8).

• prep.

  In many phrases, and in connection with many other words, to

• has a pregnant meaning, or is used elliptically.

• prep.

  Extent; limit; degree of comprehension; inclusion as far as;

• as, they met us to the number of three hundred.

• prep.

  Effect; end; consequence; as, the prince was flattered to

• his ruin; he engaged in a war to his cost; violent factions exist to

• the prejudice of the state.

• prep.

  Apposition; connection; antithesis; opposition; as, they

• engaged hand to hand.

• prep.

  Accord; adaptation; as, an occupation to his taste; she has

• a husband to her mind.

• prep.

  Comparison; as, three is to nine as nine is to twenty-seven;

• it is ten to one that you will offend him.

• prep.

  Addition; union; accumulation.

• prep.

  Accompaniment; as, she sang to his guitar; they danced to

• the music of a piano.

• prep.

  Character; condition of being; purpose subserved or office

• filled.
