9 Different Phrasal Verbs with the Verb Make in English

本文讨论用英语最常用的make所形成的9个不同的动词短语。

我们会考虑英语中这一个最常见的动词之一是如何在短语动词中使用的，要小心，因为动词make是在动词短语中使用的最棘手的单词之一。根据与之配对的副词或介词，这个动词可以有许多不同的含义。即使是相同的动词短语——有相同的副词或介词——也可能有不同的意思。为了辨别正确的意思，看上下文是很重要的。

1. Make up

This phrasal verb is fairly well known, especially to women. It can mean “to put on makeup (cosmetics).” But that isn’t the only meaning. It can also mean “to invent; to create” and “to reestablish a good or peaceful relationship after a disagreement or argument.”

Examples:

这个动词短语众所周知，尤其是对女性来说。它的意思是“化妆(化妆品)”。但这并不是唯一的意义。它也可以意为“发明;编造“和“在分歧或争论后重新建立良好或和平的关系”。

例子:

• The actors make themselves up before going on stage.
• None of it is true; he made up the whole story!
• You should make up with your sister.

Additionally, the phrasal verb make up can mean “compiling” (a group or team), “prepare something or someone,” and “put a bed in order after sleeping in it.”

examples:

此外，动词短语make up可以表示“编译”(一个小组或团队)，“准备某物或某人”，以及“睡了之后把床整理好”。

例子:

• Our team was made up of all the regional managers.
• Make yourself up. We’re leaving in 5 minutes.

2. Make up for

这个动词短语的意思是“补偿;来代替;赔还;为了补偿。”

例如:

• He spent two weeks with his family to make up for his year-long absence.

3. Make for

我们的第三个动词短语意思是“向某个地方或目的地移动;促成或导致。”

例如:

• Make for those woods, a storm is approaching!
• Both players are professionals, so it makes for a good game.

4. Make off

这个动词短语的意思是“匆忙离开;逃跑”，常用于某人匆忙离开或带着偷来的东西逃跑。

看看这些例子:

• She made off with my jewellery.

5. Make of

No, this is not a typo! Don’t be afraid. This is a phrasal verb with a completely different meaning. It means “to understand, to judge, to find a reason.”

For example:

这是一个意义完全不同的动词短语。它的意思是“理解，判断，找到一个理由。”

例如:

6. Make out

This phrasal verb means “to cope with something; to understand something.”

• How is he making out with the recent death of his uncle?
• As far as I can make out, she is a kind and charming person.

7. Make out (with)

如果在前一个动词短语后面加上with，它就会有一个非常有趣的意思:“热情地亲吻”。有时“with”这个词会被省略，但它在上下文中是可以理解的。

例如:

• Hey, I’ve seen you making out with John.
• Baby, let’s make out!

8. Make out to be

This phrasal verb means “to pretend or seem to be.” Again, don’t forget to look at the context in order to properly understand the meaning of phrasal verbs.

Examples:

这个动词短语的意思是“假装或似乎是”。再说一遍，为了正确理解动词短语的意思，不要忘记看上下文。

例子:

• He makes himself out to be a big artist, but I’ve never seen his work.

9. Make into

我们最后一个动词短语的意思是“把一件事转变成另一件事”。

例如:
