v. (动词)

encounter用作动词的基本意思是“遇到,遭遇”,通常指遭遇困难或麻烦等,还可指未曾想到会遇见但却遇见了,即“偶然碰到”。

n. (名词)

encounter, battle, combat, conflict, fight, war: 这组词的共同意思是“战斗”。其区别是：

1.battle指两支强大的军队在某一地点进行的长时间的、大规模的战役,也可比喻表示“奋斗”“努力”等意思; war是指国与国之间或国内不同派别之间的公开的大规模战争; fight指两个人或两个组织之间的战争,尤指短兵相接的肉搏厮杀,也可指精神方面的激烈斗争或动物之间的争斗; encounter多指偶然相遇所引起的短时间的冲突或交战,是敌对双方在无计划、无准备的情况下所进行的遭遇战,也可用来指非偶发性的交战; combat泛指军事行动,尤指较小规模的战斗,多指人与人之间的战争,也可指动物之间的争斗; conflict可指实际战争,但更多地指精神方面的冲突和斗争。

2.war包含有多次的battle; fight是普通用语; combat与fight相比,含义较抽象笼统,但与conflict相比却较具体; conflict概念较fight更抽象,语体也较正式。

encounter, confront, face, meet: 1.face较口语化,用途很广,除表示“对,朝”之外,含有直接地、通常是面对面地与对方会见,有正视、面对、不企图逃避的意思,更强调果断、有胆量地面对一些事。语气比confront强。

2.confront较严肃,是书面语,也含有直接地、通常是面对面地与对方会见的意思,它着重于无法避免的面对面地相遇。当主语是人时,还通常暗示这样的会见是出于决心面对困难或解决某一问题。例如:

He confronted his enemies bravely.他英勇地面对敌军。

As soon as he was confronted with the evidence, he confessed.拿出证据与他对质时,他就招供了。

3.encounter强调偶然地“不期而遇”,也指冲突中的“遭遇”,或“遭遇”困难、危险等,只用作及物动词。例如:

I encountered a friend on the plane.我在飞机上遇到了一个朋友。

I encountered many difficulties when I first started this job.我刚干这一工作时,碰上很多困难。

4.meet是普通用语,使用范围比encounter广泛,可指主动地,预先约好的,也可指偶然的“遇到(迎面而来的人),迎接(人),跟(人)结识,跟(人)洽谈”等。meet可用作不及物动词。例如:

When do we meet again?我们下次什么时候见面?

I was fortunate enough to meet Mary at dinner.我真有幸在宴会上结识了玛丽。

If he comes this way, we'll probably meet him.如果他从这条路来,我们或许会碰见他。

We shall do our best to meet the difficulty.我们将尽力应付困难。

That's where the two streets meet.那是两街相交之处。

meet，encounter，confront，face，contact: 这些动词均有“遇见、会见、碰见”之意。

meet普通用词，本义指双方或多方从不同方向或相反方向作相对运动，最终相碰(遇)。

encounter通常指遇到困难或挫折，也指偶然或意外地相遇。

confront 不可避免地，面对面地相遇，也指敢于正视困难或问题。

face侧重双方静止地面对面，或指充满勇气、信心和决心去正视人或事。

contact多指通过书信、电话或直接会面和别人联系，口语用词。
