own这个词汇常常考,而且,一考许多考生都不知所措,所以有必要拿出说说。

own

v.拥有;有(尤指买来的东西);承认

adj./pron.(用于强调)自己的;本人的;自己做的;为自己的

1.做动词“拥有”,普通词汇

Do you own your house or do you rent it?

你的房子是自己的,还是租的?

作动词“承认”,用法比较特殊:

own to sth/to doing sth承认

He owned to a feeling of guilt.

他承认有歉疚感。

She owned (that) she had been present.

她承认她当时在场。

own up to sth坦白承认……

Most men would rather go to the grave than own up to feelings of dependency.

大多数男人宁死都不愿承认有依赖感。

2. adj./pron.(用于强调)自己的;本人的;自己做的;为自己的

一般用法是:物主代词+own+名词,

但这个时候own可以放在物主代词的后面,构成独立的名词短语(即名词省略不再出现)。特别是当与own有关的名词已在前面出现时,就可以采用这种结构。但是,不是绝对的。如:

我自己的观点非常清楚。我做的事是正确的。
