fight

★★★★★
🇺🇸 /fˈaɪt/ 🇬🇧 /faɪt/
noun 编号: F00731 牛津3000 BNC #917 COCA #676
fight既可表示“打斗、战斗”这件事,也可表示为目标或立场而进行的斗争;作动词时还可表示参加战斗、努力争取或对抗某种问题。
💡 记忆钩子
把fight想成“迎着阻力上去对抗”:人和人迎面打,是打架或战斗;拳击手在场上对抗,是一场比赛;为了目标、正义或改变而迎难而上,就成了非身体上的斗争。作为动词,它既能表示自己战斗,也能表示为某事努力、与问题对抗。
📝 学习建议
  • 先掌握“打架、战斗”和“为目标奋斗”两条主线,再学习体育比赛及设计元素冲突等较具体用法。
  • fight不只表示身体冲突;在fight for a cause中通常是“为某事奋斗”,在fight against corruption中是“对抗某事”,不要一律理解成“打架”。
📖 中文释义
noun
  • core 打斗;冲突
    📖 指发生在某个时间和地点的一次打斗或冲突,通常涉及身体上的攻击,也可以泛指一场激烈争斗。
    💡 常用“get into a fight”“break up a fight”表示“卷入打斗”“制止打斗”。说具体的一场冲突时通常用可数形式a fight;不要把它误当成只表示正式战争的词。
    countable uncountable
    The police arrived just after the fight ended.
    警察在打斗刚结束后赶到了。
    They got into a fight outside the restaurant.
    他们在餐馆外打了起来。
  • rare 战役;战斗
    📖 指敌对军队之间的战斗或战役,是较旧式、较少见的用法。
    💡 现代英语通常说battle或combat,而不是用fight来正式指一场军事战役。这个义项多见于历史性或文学性语境,不宜作为普通军事表达的首选。
    archaic countable uncountable
  • common 人与人之间的格斗
    📖 强调两个或多个个人或群体之间直接发生的身体对抗,常常比一般的冲突更具体。
    💡 常见搭配是“look for a fight”“pick a fight”或“a fight between A and B”。“look for a fight”表示主动寻衅,不是单纯寻找某场比赛;表示比赛时要看上下文或使用更明确的sports表达。
    countable uncountable
    Are you looking for a fight?
    你是想找打吗?
  • common 格斗比赛
    📖 指拳击、综合格斗等项目中的一场正式比赛,重点是竞技对决而不只是街头打架。
    💡 常用“watch the fight”“win the fight”“the big fight”表示观看或谈论一场格斗比赛。这里的fight通常依靠体育语境来理解;若要明确项目,可以在前面加boxing或用具体项目名称。
    countable uncountable
    Millions of fans watched the championship fight.
    数百万名观众观看了这场冠军格斗赛。
  • core 斗争;对抗
    📖 把身体上的对抗延伸到思想、利益或力量之间的冲突,表示为了保护、改变或争取某事而持续抗争。
    💡 常用“a fight for...”表示“为……而斗争”,用“a fight against...”表示“反对或对抗……”。它不一定包含暴力,涉及事业、权利或社会问题时通常是正式而自然的抽象表达。
    countable uncountable
    She joined the fight for equal education.
    她加入了争取教育平等的斗争。
    The team is in a fight to stay in the league.
    这支队伍正在为留在联赛中而奋力拼搏。
  • common 斗志;战斗力
    📖 指一个人或群体继续抵抗、坚持到底的意志和力量;有fight表示还有斗志,失去fight则表示不再想坚持。
    💡 常见于“have fight in you”“lose the fight”或“the fight goes out of someone”等结构。这里的fight通常不可数,不能按普通的一场打斗来翻译;形容坚韧时也常带有鼓励或赞赏意味。
    uncountable
    Even after the setback, she still had plenty of fight in her.
    即使遭遇挫折,她仍然斗志十足。
  • rare 船上的战斗防护设施
    📖 旧式航海用语,指船上为作战人员设置的遮挡或防护设施。
    💡 这是过时的航海义项,现代日常英语中几乎不会这样使用fight。阅读古典航海作品时可结合上下文理解,不要与普通的“战斗”义混为一谈。
    countable obsolete uncountable
fights plural
verb
  • core 与某人或某方战斗
    📖 指主动与人、军队或其他对手进行身体上的战斗;核心画面就是迎着对手上前对抗。
    💡 常用“fight someone”表示与某人作战,也可说“fight against an enemy”。fight后直接接对手时通常不加to;不要把过去式写成fighted,应使用fought。
    transitive
    My grandfather fought the enemy during the war.
    我祖父在战争期间与敌人作战。
    The soldiers fought bravely to defend the town.
    士兵们英勇作战,保卫这座城镇。
  • common 打斗;战斗
    📖 不带宾语时表示自己参加打斗或战斗,重点是进行这项行动,而不是说明对手是谁。
    💡 常见结构是“fight with someone”“fight over something”或单独使用fight。fight with既可表示“与某人打架”,也可能表示“和某人并肩作战”,要靠上下文判断;谈争吵时也能使用,但正式冲突需看语境。
    intransitive
    The injured animal fought fiercely when we approached.
    那只受伤的动物在我们靠近时进行了猛烈反抗。
  • common 互相打斗
    📖 指双方或多方彼此战斗,强调动作是相互进行的,而不是一方单独攻击另一方。
    💡 常用“fight each other”明确表示“互相打斗”,也可说“fight with each other”。不要把普通的fight自动理解成双方互殴,因为它也可以只表示一方参加战斗。
    reciprocal
    The two boys started fighting in the playground.
    那两个男孩开始在操场上打架。
  • common 使参加战斗
    📖 表示让某人、某群体或某方投入战斗,强调说话者促成了对方作战。
    💡 常用“fight someone against...”或“fight someone”表示让某人对抗另一方,但这种使役用法比普通的fight更依赖上下文。日常表达中,为避免歧义,也常改用“make someone fight”或“send someone to fight”。
    causative
    The commander fought his troops against a much larger army.
    指挥官让部队迎战一支规模大得多的军队。
  • core 为某事奋斗
    📖 把迎战对手的动作用于抽象目标,表示努力争取成功、权利、机会或政治目标。
    💡 最常见的结构是“fight for something”或“fight to do something”。fight for强调支持并争取某目标,后面不要误用成fight something;若表示反对某事,通常用fight against或fight something。
    intransitive
    They are fighting for better working conditions.
    他们正在争取更好的工作条件。
    She fought to keep her small business open.
    她努力争取让自己的小企业继续营业。
  • common 对抗;竭力阻止
    📖 表示用很大力气抵抗或消除某种问题、力量或趋势,未必涉及实际的人身冲突。
    💡 常用“fight crime”“fight corruption”“fight against disease”等搭配,fight后可直接接问题,也可接against。这里常用于新闻、公共事务和正式讨论;不要因为有fight就把宾语理解成具体的人。
    transitive
    The organization fights poverty in rural communities.
    这个组织在农村社区开展反贫困工作。
  • common 彼此冲突;不协调
    📖 用于颜色、图案或其他设计元素时,表示它们放在一起互相冲突,整体看起来不协调。
    💡 常见结构是“the colors fight”或“these patterns fight with each other”。这是设计和视觉评论中的比喻用法,通常不接表示人的宾语;若只是说颜色不同,不要使用fight。
    intransitive
    The bright walls fight with the dark furniture.
    明亮的墙面和深色家具搭配起来很不协调。
