Seem是不及物動詞嗎?

2017-06-02 8:33 pm
請教:It seems 後可直接接 that名詞子句,是否等同seem為及物動詞,可是為何查字典結果seem只為不及物動詞,此豈不自相矛盾??會不會是:It seem +that 名詞子句其實是It seems to be the case that 子句之簡化版(省略掉 to be the case)???

seem 是「連綴動詞」,屬於不及物動詞的一種,又稱「不完全不及物動詞」。

連綴動詞後面必須接「補語」,否則句意就不完整。像原句如果只有 It seems. 意思只有(似乎),似乎什麼呢?必須有東西來補充,才知道句子究竟要說什麼。這裡 that 就是引導一個子句來做「主詞補語」。

說話者若要說 It seems to be the case that...... 也可以,意思一樣,但在英語語法的分析上,主詞補語是不定詞片語 to be the case,而 that 的子句成了 case 的同位語。

It seems that--(no need to be the case in this complement in apposition));
seem=verb intransitive;=have or give the impression,appearance of being or doing; appear to be;
eg:-It seems that no one knew what had happened in that case.
eg:-I seem unable to get out=I can't seem to get out.
It would seem that I can't get out-----is a cautious way of saying "It seems that "I can't get out."
eg:-It would seem that I've been out in the rain from my wet clothes.So it seems" I've been out once."
"seems"---eg:-It seems that---
eg:-The book seems quite interesting.
eg:-There seems to be no objections to her proposal.She seems to think so.What seems easy to some people seems hard to others.I shall act as seems best=I shall act as it seems best to me to get rid of her.
"seeming"adj.--apparent but perhaps not real;
eg:-In spite of his seeming friendship he gave me no money or help.
"seemingly" adv. means in appearance; apparently
