一、詞義用法

二、后續(xù)賓語問題
其后可接名(代)詞、動名詞、名詞性從句等作賓語,但不能接不定式。如:
We shall appreciate hearing from you again.
能再次收到你的來信,我們將十分感激。
I appreciate that you have come here so
感謝你來得這么早。
注意:其后只能接“事”作賓語,而不能接“人”作賓語 (注意:這與thank 的用法恰恰相反)。如:
正:I appreciate your kindness. 謝謝你的好意。
誤:I appreciate you for your kindness.
正:He thanked her for her kindness. 他感謝她的好意。
誤:He thanked her kindness.
三、后接if或when從句的問題
其后不直接跟if或when引導(dǎo)的從句,若語義上需要接這類從句,需借助it。如:
I would appreciate it very much if you would help me with it.
如果你能幫助我做這事,我會十分感激。
We really appreciate it when she offered to help.
她來幫忙了,我們十分感激。

要表示程度,可用 deeply, highly, (very) much 等副詞修飾。如:

謝你的好意。

注意:much 修飾 appreciate時,只能置于其前,而不能置于其后但 very much 卻可以):
我們非常感謝你的邀請。
正:We much appreciate your invitation.
正:We appreciate your invitation very much.
誤:We appreciate your invitation much.
