词组 date
释义 1.date 不一定指“日期”,也可以包括月或年。5 October, 2001 是 date,October 2001 或 2001 虽然不是“日期”,却也是 date。

2.of even date(同一天的),of current date(同一天的),of recent date(不久以前的),of yesterday's date(昨天的),under (the) date of...(……日期的),和 at an early date(不久以后)都是商业信函里的陈套语,在一般通信里该避免。

3.date 前面的介词通常是 at,偶尔是 on。例如:at an early date 和on a certain date。但在on that date 中习惯用 on。

4.date 在美国往往用作“约会”解。例如:I have a date with them. 在口语里从“日期”转指“约会”,再转指“被约会的人”,再转指“异性朋友”,用作动词从“跟……约会”转用作不及物动词,指“(男女)交际”。

5.your letter dated...(例如:8 April)和 your letter of...(例如:8 April)都可以用在信函里,但现在多用 of 而少用 dated。

6.严格地说,文件等上的 date 只指“日期”,不包括“地址”(address),但事实上往往包括地址。说信上的载着某个地址,习惯用 be dated from(或 at)和那地址名称。例如:The letter is dated from(或at)Moscow.

7.下面两句可以说意思相同,但用 from 普通些。
His family dates from 1764. (他的家系上溯起自 1764 年。)
His family dates back to 1764.
说 His family dates back from 1764 也可以,但不很普通。

8.a letter of an early date, a poem of a later date 等表达方式里的 an 或 a 可以省去,美国英语 without date 里没有 a。例如:The conference adjourned without date. (会议无限期休会。)在英国通常用 indefinitely 或拉丁语sine die

9.His dates are not known 里的 dates 指 date of birth 和 date of death。
10.date 不可只指“星期几”。例如:What's the date? 或 What's the date today? 的回答可能是 It's 25 August 或 Today is 25 August。It's Saturday, 25 August 或 Today is Saturday, 25 August,不可能是 It's Saturday 或 Today is Saturday。What day is it? 的回答可能是 It's Saturday,不可能是 It's 25 August 或 It's Saturday, 25 August。
What is the date of the establishment of the People's Republic of China? 的回答可能是 It's 1 October, 1949, It's October 1949 或 It's 1949。What's the day of the establishment of the People's Republic of China? 的回答只可能是 It's 1 October, 1949。
11.to date 作“到现在为止”解,是状语短语。例如:To date no solution has been found. 和 The book has been widely accepted as the best on the subject to date.
