write
★★★★★
🇺🇸 /ɹˈaɪt/
🇬🇧 [ɹɑjt]
write 主要表示“写”:把字、信息或数据留下来,也可进一步表示写作、记录,或用文字向别人传达内容。
💡 记忆钩子
把笔尖或电子设备想成一把“刻刀”:先把字母、词语刻在纸上,就是“写字”;刻出一本文章,就是“写作”;把消息刻进信件,就是“写信”;把信息刻进硬盘,就是“写入”。
📝 学习建议
- 先掌握“写字/写作”和“给某人写信或消息”这条主线,再学习计算机中的“写入”;不要把它只理解成手写。
- 注意过去式和过去分词都是 wrote、written,不是规则变化;“写给某人”常用 write to someone,而“写信告诉某人某事”可用 write someone that...。

rare 书写效果📖 指写出来的字、笔迹或书写风格,强调文字留下来的样子和质量。💡 常见结构是 a good/bad write,表示“写得好/不好”或“笔迹好/不好”。这是较少见的名词用法,现代英语里通常改说 handwriting 或 writing。不要把它和最常见的动词 write 混为一谈。
-
common 一次写入📖 在计算机中,指把数据保存到内存、磁盘等设备上的一次操作,也就是把信息“刻”进去。💡 常见结构是 a write、writes per second 和 write to a disk。这里的 write 是可数名词,常和 read 或读取速度作比较。不要把它理解成“写文章”,而要理解成设备保存数据的动作。This drive can handle thousands of writes per second.这个硬盘每秒可以处理数千次写入。

core 写字、写下📖 用笔、键盘等把字母、单词或符号留在纸面或其他表面上,以便表达或保存信息。💡 常见结构是 write something on/in/to something,例如 write your name on the form。表示“写某物”时直接接宾语,不要在 write 后面随意加介词。强调书写动作时可用 write down,表示“写下、记下”。ambitransitivePlease write your address on this form.请把你的地址写在这张表上。She wrote down the phone number before leaving.她离开前把电话号码记了下来。
-
core 写作📖 创作书、文章、诗歌等较完整的文字作品;这里不只是写几个字,而是承担作者的角色。💡 常见结构是 write a book/article/poem 或 write for a newspaper。write 通常直接接作品名称,也可用 write about something 表示“写关于某事的内容”。不要把“写作”误译成 make a book;英语中作者通常用 write。transitiveHe writes short stories in his spare time.他利用业余时间写短篇小说。
-
core 写信给📖 通过信件、电子邮件或其他文字信息与某人联系,把消息发送给对方。💡 常见结构是 write to someone,表示“给某人写信或发文字消息”。write 后面不能直接把人当作普通宾语使用;若要说“给某人写某事”,可用 write someone a letter 或 write to someone about something。英式英语尤其常用 write to。transitiveWrite to me when you arrive safely.你平安到达后给我写信或发消息。I wrote to the hotel to confirm our booking.我给酒店写信确认了我们的预订。
-
common 以文字显示📖 把信息、日期、规则等用文字呈现出来,让人可以从书面材料中看到它。💡 常见结构是 be written on/in something,表示某内容“写在某处”。被动语态很常见,因为重点通常是信息所在的位置,而不是谁写的。表示“写着”时不要机械使用主动语态。transitiveThe meeting time is written on the notice.会议时间写在通知上。
-
common 写信告知📖 通过文字把一个事实、消息或想法告诉某人,重点是“写着告诉对方内容”。💡 常见结构是 write someone that...,也可以说 write to someone to say that...。这种双宾语结构比“写某物给某人”更强调传达的信息。不要把 write someone that... 误解为“在某人身上写字”。ditransitiveShe wrote me that the train would be late.她写信告诉我火车会晚点。
-
common 以写作为职业📖 不特指某一本作品,而是表示以写作谋生或把写作作为主要活动。💡 常见结构是 write for a living 或 write professionally。也可以说 write for a newspaper/magazine,说明为某种媒体写作。这里不一定要有直接宾语,因为重点是职业活动本身。intransitiveShe writes for a living and works from home.她靠写作为生,在家工作。
-
common 写入数据📖 在计算机或电子设备中自动把数据保存到内存、磁盘等介质里,相当于把信息刻进去。💡 常见结构是 write to a disk/memory/file,通常与 read from... 对举。计算机系统可作主语,如 The program writes to the file。这里不是“写文章”,而是技术上的数据写入。intransitiveThe program writes the results to a file.程序把结果写入一个文件。
-
common 填写、完成书面内容📖 在考试、表格或文件中写入答案或所需信息,把书面任务完成。💡 在部分地区可说 write a test,表示“参加并完成考试”,但这不是所有英语地区的首选说法。填写表格通常说 write in information 或 fill in a form;不要把 write a test 一律理解为“出一份试卷”。Canada South-Africa transitive usuallyI wrote the test last Friday.我上周五参加了考试。
-
common 深深铭刻📖 比喻某种经验、信念或事实被牢牢记住,仿佛刻在心里一样。💡 常见结构是 be written on/in someone’s heart/mind。这个用法多为比喻,不是在真实表面上书写。通常用于较有感情色彩或文学性的表达,日常说明记忆时更常用 stay with someone 或 be deeply remembered。That lesson is written on my heart.那个教训深深铭刻在我心里。
-
rare 以文字声明📖 通过书面记录或自己的文字声明某件事,使它成为公开表达或书面凭证;这是较旧或文学性的延伸。💡 现代日常英语中通常用 record、declare 或 state in writing 来表达。该义项常出现在文学或历史语境中,尤其可用被动形式表示某事已被写明。学习时先掌握普通的“写下、写作”义。
-
rare 卖出期权📖 在金融交易中,指作为期权卖方创设并出售期权合约;可以看作把一项交易权利“写”进合约并卖出。💡 常见结构是 write an option/call/put。它是金融术语,不能按普通的“写某物”理解,也不表示撰写金融文章。通常只在投资或衍生品语境中使用。
-
rare 绘制宗教图像📖 在东正教传统中,指绘制宗教圣像或彩蛋;这里沿用了“把形象刻画、留下来”的古老观念。💡 常见于宗教艺术或文化历史语境,通常带有明确的艺术对象,如 an icon。现代一般英语中描绘图像通常用 paint 或 draw,不要把普通绘画都说成 write。

From Middle English writen, from Old English wrītan, from Proto-West Germanic *wrītan, from Proto-Germanic *wrītaną (“to carve, write”), from Proto-Indo-European *wrey- (“to rip, tear”).
Cognate with West Frisian write (“to wear by rubbing, rip, tear”), Dutch wrijten (“to argue, quarrel”), Middle Low German wrîten (“to scratch, draw, write”) (> Low German wrieten, rieten (“to tear, split”)), German reißen (“to tear, rip”), Norwegian rita (“to rough-sketch, carve, write”), Swedish rita (“to draw, design, delineate, model”), Icelandic ríta, rita (“to inscribe, sketch, write”), German ritzen (“to carve, scratch”), Proto-Slavic *ryti (“to carve, engrave, dig”), Polish ryć (“to engrave, dig”), Czech rýt (“to engrave, dig”).
