offer什么意思(报价、合同、生意提案)


供给、提供和供应的区别

offerprovidesupply都有“供给、提供”的意思,但在用法上有所不同:

  1. provide指有远见,为应付意外、紧急情况等作好充分准备而“供给、提供”,可用于provide sb. (with sth.)provide sth. (for sb.)结构。
  2. supply通常指定期“供应”,强调替代或补充所需物品,常用于supply sb. with sth.supply sth. to sb.结构。
  3. offer侧重表示“愿意给予”,含有主动供给之意,常用于offer sth. to sb 、offer sb. sth.offer to do sth.、offer sth for sb结构,后不能接宾语从句。

用法示例:

support指支持或赞成,如 support your idea, 支撑或扶持,support by sb.
