Subject: dare / dare to Помогите пожалуйста!Как употребляется глагол dare? С to или без? Существует ли какое-нибудь правило? Спасибо |
Информация из The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. 2000: Depending on its sense, the verb dare sometimes behaves like an auxiliary verb (such as can or may) and sometimes like a main verb (such as want or try). When used as an auxiliary verb, dare does not change to agree with its subject: Let him say that if he dare. It also does not combine with do in questions, negations, or certain other constructions: Dare we tell her the truth? I dare not mention their names. Finally, it does not take to before the verb that follows it: If you dare breathe a word about it, I'll never speak to you again. When used as a main verb, dare does agree with its subject (If he dares to show up at her house I'll be surprised), and it does combine with do (Did anyone dare to admit it?). It may optionally take to before the verb following it: No one dares (or dares to) speak freely about the political situation. The auxiliary forms differ subtly in meaning from the main verb forms in that they emphasize the attitude or involvement of the speaker while the main verb forms present a more objective situation. Thus How dare you operate this machinery without proper training? expresses indignation at the action, whereas How do you dare to operate this machinery without proper training? is a genuine request for information. When dare is used as a transitive verb meaning “challenge,” only main verb forms are possible and to is required: Anyone who dares him to attempt it will be sorry. |
я бы сказал так - dare - просить, dare to - осмеливаться сделать (что-л). |

мilitary, как раз в значении просить глагол dare употребляется только с to [+ to infinitive] I dare you to ask him to dance. |
Люди, это где глагол dare приобрел значение "просить"? |
military, насчет "я бы сказал так" - в классической грамматике уже все давно расписано, как "так" и как "не так", i dare say. |

Dimking я лишь попытался предельно (по сравнению с пространными словарными комментариями запосще(сте?)нными уважаемой АннойБ) упростить ответ на вопрос аскера.. |
Насчет Cambridge - бросайте в меня тапками - I dare you to ask him to dance - я НЕ ПОНИМАЮ ЭТОГО ПРЕДЛОЖЕНИЯ. Нейтивы есть? |
Dimking, это в значении "бросать вызов", делать что-либо на спор |
Dimking, я не нейтив, но почти... I dare you to ask him to dance = А слабо тебе пригласить его на танец? |
"Спорим, ты его на танец не пригласишь?" Если не дословно, а по смыслу :) |
I dare you to... = I defy you to (do it) it's a challenge |
Вроде дошло. Просто меня значение "просить" жутко покоробило. Уже собрался менять профиль. |
