Learner notes
Memory Tip
fool 谐音“俘”——俘虏被人耍弄，正是“欺骗、愚弄”；自己犯傻时也像个傻瓜。
Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：everyday conversation、journalism、casual speech fool 作动词时主要有两类含义：一是“欺骗/愚弄”，语气比较中性，多用于日常对话和书面叙述；二是“表现愚蠢/胡闹”，尤其在 fool around 等搭配中更偏口语，比较常见于非正式场合。因此整体语域宜视为混合，需根据具体搭配判断。
Grammar Note
作及物动词时表示欺骗，常跟into；作不及物动词时表示开玩笑或闲荡，常跟around
