indulging

基本解釋

indulge的基本意思是“放縱”自己的欲望,尤其是無(wú)法實(shí)現(xiàn)或應(yīng)加以控制的欲望,即“沉湎於”。如用於他人,則意爲(wèi)“放任”“縱容”。
indulge可用作及物動(dòng)詞,也可用作不及物動(dòng)詞。用作及物動(dòng)詞時(shí)接名詞或代詞作賓語(yǔ)。賓語(yǔ)後常接介詞in或with引起的短語(yǔ),表示“聽(tīng)從或放任某人做某事”。
indulge作“縱情,沉溺”解時(shí),是不及物動(dòng)詞,後接介詞“in+名詞/動(dòng)名詞”,表示“盡情、無(wú)節(jié)制地做某事或享受”,這種用法實(shí)際上是及物動(dòng)詞後麪省略作賓語(yǔ)的反身代詞後形成的。

He took out his cigar case, he had not indulged all night.
他拿出他的雪茄菸盒來(lái),他已整整一夜沒(méi)抽了。
