易错句子The new king crowned last month.
正确表达The new king was crowned last month.
汉语的“加冕”可以不带宾语(“他去年加冕了”),但英语 crown 是及物动词,意思是“为某人加冕”,接受加冕的人必须作被动句的主语,因此要用 be crowned,不能像汉语那样直接用主动形式。
grammar · medium
易错句子They crowned him to king at the ceremony.
正确表达They crowned him king at the ceremony.
crown 表示“加冕某人为……”时,用“crown sb + 名词”,名词直接作宾语补足语,中间不加介词;汉语“加冕为国王”里的“为”不能直译成 to。
grammar · medium
易错句子A golden statue crowns on the top of the monument.
正确表达A golden statue crowns the monument.
crown 表示“位于……的顶部、构成……的顶端”时是及物动词,后面直接跟所装饰或构成顶部的对象,不需要 on / on top of 这类介词;加介词是汉语“在……上面”的直译。
针对“为…加冕;立…为王”的义项;指把君主从王位上赶下,不能用于“位于…顶部/完成”等义项。

较正式的词汇,字面为“摘去王冠”,与“加冕”针锋相对,用法较少。
两者都能表示“构成顶部、收尾”,但 cap 强调像帽子一样盖在上面,或表示“设定上限”(如 capped at 5%),语气平实;crown 表示“位于顶端”时常带荣耀、尊严或“使之完美”的意味。表示“为…加冕、宣布某人为国王或获胜者”时只能用 crown,不能用 cap。
enthrone 只表示“使某人坐上王位”这一就职动作,多用于正式或书面语;crown 强调戴上王冠的仪式,还可引申为“使圆满、位于顶端”。如果强调“拥立、让他即位”,用 enthrone;如果强调“为他加冕”,用 crown,二者不宜互换。
clown 与 crown 拼写只差一个字母,但读音不同(/klaʊn/ 对 /kraʊn/),意义也毫无关系:clown 指小丑或“装傻逗乐”,crown 指王冠、加冕或“位于顶端”。听写和拼写时要注意 l 与 r 的区别,不能因为字形相近而混用。
