The word “enjoy” is a verb similar to the verb “l(fā)ike.”
動(dòng)詞“enjoy”與“l(fā)ike”(喜歡)意思相近。

There are two very important things to take note of for the verb “enjoy”. First, this is a transitive verb, so it requires an object of some kind. Bob enjoys his new job. The word “job” is an object in that sentence. Second, the verb “enjoy” is often followed by a gerund. You can’t use an infinitive after “enjoy.”
關(guān)于“enjoy”的用法,有兩點(diǎn)需要特別注意。第一,這是一個(gè)及物動(dòng)詞,使用時(shí)后面要接賓語(yǔ)。比如“Bob enjoys his new job”這個(gè)句子中,“job”(工作)就是賓語(yǔ)。第二,這個(gè)詞后面通常跟動(dòng)名詞(-ing),不能使用不定式(to do)。

I enjoy gardening.
我喜歡園藝。

I enjoy to garden. (No!)(這是錯(cuò)誤用法哦?。?/p>

This is one way in which “enjoy” is different from the verb “l(fā)ike.” After “l(fā)ike,” the use of either a gerund of an infinitive is okay:
這是“enjoy”和“l(fā)ike”的其中一點(diǎn)不同之處?!發(fā)ike”后面既可以跟動(dòng)名詞,又可以跟不定式。

I like gardening. I like to garden.
我喜歡園藝。

Here are some other common ways in which “enjoy” is used:
下面是“enjoy”的一些其他常見(jiàn)用法:

(This is a command. “Enjoy”is often used in the imperative form.)
(這是一個(gè)命令句?!癳njoy”常用在祈使語(yǔ)中。)?

You can add “able” as a suffix to “enjoy” to make the adjective, “enjoyable.”
“enjoy”后面加后綴“able”就構(gòu)成了形容詞“enjoyable”,意為“令人愉快的”。

這次旅途令人十分愉快。

It was an enjoyable experience.
這是一次令人愉快的經(jīng)歷。

*Note: Sometimes “enjoy” is used as a one-word imperative sentence. The object here is implied and dependent on the situation. You often hear “enjoy” used this way by people who work in the hospitality industry, mainly wait staff and hotel workers. Enjoy!
*注意:“enjoy”有時(shí)候會(huì)被單獨(dú)作為一個(gè)祈使句使用。這里暗含的賓語(yǔ)由情境決定。服務(wù)行業(yè)的從業(yè)人員經(jīng)常這樣使用“enjoy”,主要是服務(wù)員和賓館工作人員。享受吧!
