visit
★★★★★
🇺🇸 /vˈɪzɪt/
visit 的核心意思是“去某人或某地那里”,既可指拜访、参观这一行动,也可指一次拜访;在较旧或正式的用法中,还可表示某种灾祸降临到人身上。
💡 记忆钩子
把 visit 想成“亲自走到某人或某处门前”:走去见人就是拜访,走到某地就是参观,一次这样的行动就是一次拜访;在古老或正式的表达里,坏事仿佛“走到”某人身上,于是有灾祸降临之意。
📝 学习建议
- 先掌握“拜访某人”和“参观某地”这两个现代核心意思,再记住名词表示“一次拜访”,以及医疗语境中的“就诊”。
- 不要把 visit 只理解成旅游;它也常用于短暂探望亲友、去看医生或到某地办事。
📖 中文释义
noun
-
core 一次拜访或走访📖 指亲自到某人那里或某处去的一次行动,重点是“去那里看望、相聚或走访”这一件事。💡 常用“a visit to + 地点”和“a visit with + 人”,也可用“pay/make a visit”表示进行拜访。它既可用于亲友之间,也可用于对某地的短暂走访;不要误以为它只表示旅游。We had a lovely visit with our neighbors last night.昨晚我们和邻居愉快地聚了一次。Our visit to the museum lasted two hours.我们参观博物馆用了两个小时。
-
common 一次就诊📖 在医疗语境中,指病人到诊所或医生那里接受检查、咨询或治疗的一次就诊。💡 常用“a visit to the doctor/dentist”或“a doctor’s visit”。这里的 visit 指医疗预约或就诊过程,不一定表示去看望医生本人;保险、账单和医院说明中尤其常见。The insurance plan covers two doctor visits a year.这份保险每年涵盖两次就诊。

verb
-
rare 探望受苦者📖 较旧的用法,指特意去探望生病、受苦或处境困难的人并给予安慰;现代英语通常直接归入“拜访某人”。💡 常见于历史、宗教或文学语境,通常用“visit + 人”。现代日常表达一般直接说“visit someone”表示探望,不必专门使用这一特殊义项。transitive
-
core 拜访某人📖 指为了友好相聚、聊天或探望而去见某人,就是把“走到某人那里”作为拜访来做。💡 常用“visit + 人”,例如“visit my grandparents”;也可说“visit with + 人”,表示与对方聊天相聚,后者在部分英语变体中更常见。不要说“visit to someone”,应说“visit someone”或“a visit to someone”。intransitive transitiveI’m going to visit my grandparents this weekend.这个周末我要去看望祖父母。She visited her old friend after work.她下班后去拜访了老朋友。
-
rare 神临到或降临📖 宗教或古旧语境中,指上帝显现并给予安慰、祝福,或施加惩罚;可看作某种力量“来到”某人身上。💡 主要出现在《圣经》式语言、历史文本或文学翻译中,通常使用“visit + 人”的结构。现代日常英语一般不会用 visit 表达神显现或惩罚。transitive
-
rare 施加惩罚或伤害📖 古旧用法,指把惩罚或伤害施加给某人或某物,是“坏事走到对象身上”的延伸。💡 通常见于古典文学或历史叙述,常用“visit harm/punishment on/upon + 对象”。现代英语中应改用更直接的“punish”或“inflict harm”。archaic transitive
-
common 灾祸降临📖 指疾病、不幸等坏事降临并影响某人或某地,常带有正式或文学色彩。💡 常见结构是“be visited by + 疾病/不幸”,或“a disease/disaster visits + 对象”。这种用法比“suffer from”或“be hit by”更正式、更书面,日常对话中不一定首选。transitiveThe village was visited by a severe drought.这个村庄遭遇了严重的干旱。
-
rare 把惩罚施加于📖 正式或古旧地表示因某种过错而把惩罚、报复或毁灭施加给某人或某物。💡 常用“visit punishment/vengeance on/upon + 对象”,结构固定且书面化。现代英语通常用“punish + 对象”或“take revenge on + 对象”表达。transitive
-
common 参拜宗教场所📖 指为了礼拜或宗教活动而去神殿、圣地等场所,是“去某个地方”的特殊目的用法。💡 通常用“visit + 宗教场所”,如“visit a shrine”或“visit a temple”。现代英语中也可以直接说“go to ... to worship”,因此 visit 在这里强调到访地点,而非具体的宗教动作。transitiveMany pilgrims visit the shrine each spring.每年春天,许多朝圣者都会去参拜这座圣地。
-
core 参观或走访某地📖 指为了游玩、办事、查看或了解情况而去某个地方;核心仍是“亲自走到那里去看”。💡 常用“visit + 地点”,例如“visit a city”或“visit a museum”,不需要在动词后加“to”。它既可表示旅游参观,也可表示因工作或办事到某地走访,具体目的由上下文决定。transitiveWe visited several small towns along the coast.我们走访了沿海的几个小镇。The manager visited the factory to check the new equipment.经理到工厂查看了新设备。

🌳 词源
来自中古英语和古法语,最终与拉丁语中表示“看、察看”的词有关,因此“亲自去看”发展出拜访和参观等意思。
From Middle English visiten, from Old French visiter, from Latin vīsitō, frequentative of vīsō (“behold, survey”), from videō (“see”). Cognate with Old Saxon wīsōn (“to visit, afflict”), archaic German weisen (“to visit, afflict”). Displaced native Old English sēċan (“to visit”) and sōcn (“a visit”).
The noun is from French visite or the verb. Doublet of visite.
