厨师用藏红花把米饭染成亮黄色。

易错句子The white cloth tinctured in the dye bath within minutes.
正确表达The white cloth was tinctured in the dye bath within minutes.
tincture 是及物动词,必须带宾语,布料本身不能“去染色”,只能“被染色”;表示被动要用 be + 过去分词 tinctured,不能把动词直接当不及物动词用。

易错句子His account is tinctured of sarcasm.
正确表达His account is tinctured with sarcasm.
表示“使带某种抽象特质”时,tincture 固定搭配介词 with,不用 of;with 引出所渗入的那点特质,of 在这里不合搭配。

易错句子She tinctured the herbs into alcohol for a week.
正确表达She tinctured the herbs in alcohol for a week.
表示“把某物溶于某种溶剂制成酊剂”时,溶剂是浸泡的介质,用介词 in;into 表示方向或转变,不能用来引出溶剂。
两者都能指“薄薄地着色”,也都能与 with 连用表示“带有一点抽象特质”;但 tinge 强调淡、少、只需一层,几乎只作及物动词用,语气偏轻;tincture 的着色义更书面、更旧式,指整体浸染,且另有“制成酊剂”的医药义,tinge 完全没有这一层。
dye 指用染料把布料、头发等整体染成明显、通常持久的新颜色,结果是彻底的;tincture 只是文学或旧式的“着色”,程度轻、多指浅浅一层。dye 不能表示“使带有抽象特质”,也没有“用溶剂制成酊剂”的意思。
stain 常带“弄脏、留下难看痕迹”的贬义,也可指给木料上色;tincture 不含贬义,指均匀地给某物着色。要表达“使带有一点某种特质”时,英语习惯用 tincture 或 tinge 后接 with,stain 则多用于“玷污名声”一类搭配。
