denies

vt.否认；拒绝承认；拒绝给予；自制

He is not trustworthy, but at the same time, we cannot deny that he is clever. 他不可信赖,然而我们不能否认他很聪明。

I was denied the chance of going to university. 我得不到上大学的机会。

We should try to deny ourselves from indulging in computer games. 我们应该尽力克制自己,不使自己沉溺于电脑游戏。

deny所在的句子在句子结构不同下也可表示相同的意思。 He denies her nothing.She is denied nothing (by him).他对她没有否认任何东西。

deny后面接名词或动名词作宾语，不接动词不定式。 He denied having done so.他否认自己这样做过。

deny后面也可以接that引导的从句。 He denied that she was to blame.他否认她有过失。

deny的基本意思是“否认知情”“否定”,即认为某事不真实、站不住脚、不值得考虑或与事实不符。引申可作“拒绝,谢绝”解。

deny是及物动词,作“否认”解时,可接名词、代词、动名词或that从句作宾语,但一般不接动词不定式作宾语。引申作“拒绝给予”解时,可接双宾语,其间接宾语可转化为介词to的宾语。

deny接反身代词作宾语时,意为“舍弃”。

当deny的宾语是完成体的动名词短语时,它所表达的动作总是先于谓语动词的动作,即相当于一个完成体的that从句。例如:James denied having broken the window.= James denied that he had broke the window.詹姆斯不承认打碎过窗户。类似的动词还有:forget, recall, regret, remember等。

deny是及物动词,其后必须跟宾语。 他控告我偷东西,但我否认了。误:He accused me of stealing but I denied.正:He accused me of stealing but I denied it.

表示“某人拒绝做某事”,不用deny,而要用refuse to do sth; 当否定回答不属指控性质的普通问句时,也不用deny,而用say no来表示。
