credit 主要围绕“信任所带来的认可或记账价值”:可以表示信任、荣誉、作品署名,也可以表示赊账、账户上的金额,以及课程学分等。它既可作名词,也可作动词;另可作姓氏。
💡 记忆钩子
把“信任”想成一笔被记在账上的东西:别人信任你,就愿意给你赊账;你的贡献被记下来,就得到认可或署名;钱款、税额和课程完成情况也都能被记入账户,因此 credit 又能表示贷记、抵免和学分。
📝 学习建议
  • 先掌握“信任或认可”以及“赊账、信用”这条主线,再学习影视署名、账户贷记和课程学分等专门用法。
  • 不要把 credit 一律理解成“信用卡”或“信用”;在影视语境中通常指演职员名单,在学校语境中通常指课程学分。
📖 中文释义
name
  • rare 姓氏
    📖 Credit 也可以是英语姓氏,表示一个人的家族姓,而不是普通名词意义上的“信用”。
    💡 通常使用“名字 + Credit”的形式,具体读法和普通词义的用法不同。看到大写的 Credit 出现在人名中时,不要按“信用”来翻译。
Credits plural
noun
  • core 信任;相信
    📖 指对某人所说或所做的事情抱有信任,认为它真实可靠。这是其他许多词义的起点:既然相信对方,就可能给对方荣誉、赊账或记上一笔价值。
    💡 常用“give credit to someone”表示相信某人或认可某人的说法,也可说“give something credit”。作不可数名词时通常不加冠词;不要把它误解成只指银行信用。
    countable uncountable
    I gave no credit to the rumor.
    我完全不相信那则传闻。
    She deserves credit for telling the truth.
    她因为说了实话而值得肯定。
  • core 认可;尊重
    📖 指因为一个人的努力、能力或诚实而给予他认可和尊重,相当于把这份功劳记在他名下。
    💡 常用“give someone credit for something”或“take credit for something”。前者表示承认某人的功劳,后者表示把功劳归于自己;不要把 give credit for 直译成“给信用”。
    uncountable
    Give her credit for solving the problem so quickly.
    她这么快解决了问题,应该得到肯定。
  • common 贡献署名;鸣谢
    📖 指记录某人对作品或项目所作的贡献,尤其常见于电影、电视、音乐和舞台作品中的演职员署名。
    💡 常用“receive/get a credit”表示获得一项署名,也可说“a writing credit”或“an acting credit”。这里的 credit 不是“好评”,而是正式记录贡献的署名。
    countable
    The young actor received his first film credit last year.
    这位年轻演员去年第一次在电影中获得了署名。
  • common 影视演职员名单
    📖 特指电影或电视节目开头、结尾显示的演员、工作人员及制作信息;这些内容通常统称为 credits。
    💡 通常用复数“the credits”,常与“roll”搭配,表示演职员名单开始滚动播放。不要把它和某个人获得的“一项署名”混为一谈,后者常用单数 credit。
    countable plural-normally uncountable
    We stayed until the credits ended.
    我们一直看到片尾演职员名单结束。
  • core 赊账;信用付款
    📖 指卖方或贷款方基于对买方会还款的信任,先提供商品或钱,允许对方以后付款。这里仍然是“把信任记在账上”。
    💡 常用“buy something on credit”和“extend credit to someone”。credit 通常不可数;说具体的一笔贷款或授信时,往往要换用 loan 或 line of credit。
    uncountable
    The store lets regular customers buy on credit.
    这家商店允许老顾客赊账购买。
    The bank refused to extend credit to the company.
    银行拒绝向这家公司提供信贷。
  • common 付款期限
    📖 指卖方允许买方延迟付款的时间,也就是从取得商品到应付款之间的期限。
    💡 常用“a long credit period”或“短期付款期限”这类搭配,也可在商业语境中直接说“long credit”。这里强调的是时间长短,不是总体的信用状况。
    countable uncountable
    The supplier gave us sixty days' credit.
    供应商给了我们六十天的付款期限。
  • common 个人信用状况
    📖 指一个人过去借款、还款和欠款的记录所反映出的信用可靠程度,尤其常见于美国英语。
    💡 常用“good credit”“bad credit”和“check someone's credit”。在美国语境中,credit 常可直接表示个人信用状况;不要把它只理解为一张信用卡。
    US uncountable
    Paying bills on time helps you build good credit.
    按时付账有助于建立良好的个人信用。
  • rare 账户贷记
    📖 在会计中,指把一笔金额记入账户的贷方,或指记入账户的增加额。
    💡 常见于“a credit to an account”和“on the credit side of an account”等会计表达。日常购物或银行对话中通常不会用这个词义来表示普通的入账。
    countable uncountable
  • rare 税收抵免
    📖 在税务中,指可以从应缴税额中扣除的金额,或因多缴税而获得的退还。
    💡 常用“tax credit”,不要和 tax deduction 混淆:前者直接减少应缴税额,后者通常减少计算应税收入的基数。这个词义主要出现在税务和财务文件中。
    countable uncountable
  • common 荣誉;光荣
    📖 指某人或某事为团队、组织或地方带来的荣誉和声望,相当于“值得骄傲的成员或成就”。
    💡 常用“be a credit to someone or something”,表示某人给集体增光。这个固定结构不能简单改成“有信用于”,而要整体理解为“为……增光”。
    countable uncountable
    Her dedication is a credit to the whole team.
    她的投入为整个团队增了光。
  • rare 虚构货币单位
    📖 在科幻作品或其他虚构世界中,指一种用于买卖和计价的货币单位。它只是作品设定中的名称,不一定对应现实货币。
    💡 通常用复数 credits 表示数量,并和具体数字连用。这个词义主要由故事背景决定,看到科幻作品中的价格时再按“货币单位”理解。
    countable uncountable
  • rare 非货币计价单位
    📖 指游戏或其他活动中人为设定的价值点数,可以用来兑换机会、物品或服务,但不是真实货币。
    💡 常用“earn credits”“spend credits”和“have credits left”等搭配。它和真实货币的区别取决于具体规则,翻译时可根据上下文译为“点数”或“额度”。
    countable uncountable
  • common 课程认可
    📖 指学校承认学生完成了一门课程或达到了课程要求,因此这门课的成绩可以计入学习记录。
    💡 常用“get/receive credit for a class”或“give someone credit for something”。这里通常不可数,不能把“获得这门课的学分”机械地说成 receive a credit;具体数量通常见于 course credit。
    uncountable
    You will not get credit for the course if you miss the final exam.
    如果你缺席期末考试,这门课就拿不到学分。
  • common 课程学分
    📖 指学校用来衡量课程份量和毕业进度的学分单位;修满规定数量后,学生才能毕业。
    💡 通常用复数 credits,并和数字连用,如“three credits”。它表示可计算的学分数量,不同学校对一个 credit 所代表的学习量可能有不同规定。
    countable
    I need six more credits to graduate.
    我还需要修六个学分才能毕业。
credits plural
verb
  • common 相信;认为可信
    📖 指相信某个说法或信息是真的,把它当作可信之事。它和名词的“信任”相连,但日常对话中更常用 believe。
    💡 常用“credit something”或“credit someone with something”,通常不接介词 to 表示相信。不要把它和“归功于”的 credit 混淆,后者需要表达贡献来源。
    transitive
    I cannot credit everything I read online.
    我不能相信自己在网上读到的所有内容。
  • rare 记入账户贷方
    📖 在会计中,指把一笔钱记入某个账户,使该账户得到相应的贷记。
    💡 常用“credit an account with an amount”,即把某金额记入某账户。这个结构是会计术语,不要在普通付款场景中用它代替“pay”或“add”。
    transitive
  • common 把贡献归于
    📖 指承认某人或某事促成了某个结果,把功劳或成就归在其名下。它和名词“认可、署名”的意义相连。
    💡 常用“credit someone with something”或“credit something to someone”。不要把它误解成责备;在这个结构中,通常是在明确指出功劳来源。
    transitive
    I credit my teacher with inspiring my interest in science.
    我认为是老师激发了我对科学的兴趣。
  • common 为……增光
    📖 指某人的行为或成就提升了某个组织、团体或地方的声誉,使其更受尊敬。
    💡 常用“credit someone or something”以及“do credit to someone or something”。这个用法较正式,表示增光而非单纯的“给某人署名”。
    transitive
    Her kindness credits the organization she represents.
    她的善意为她所代表的组织增了光。

🌳 词源
名词源自中古法语,最终来自拉丁语中表示“相信、信任”和“借贷”的词;动词由名词发展而来。
Borrowed from Middle French crédit (“belief, trust”), from Latin crēditum (“a loan, credit”), neuter of crēditus, past participle of crēdere (“to believe”). The verb is from the noun. Doublet of shraddha, creed.
