| 释义 | ill Raub 1897 advocated using ill of when a preposition was called for. Some years later, Literary Digest was saying that the preferred modern use was ill with ( 1929). More than 50 years later, it does appear that ill with is the more commonly found construction; however, the evidence in our files shows that ill of is still in use: • Actually I only once went ill with thirst —T. E. Lawrence, Seven Pillars of Wisdom, 1935 • ... incurably ill with cancer —Time, 14 Mar. 1949 • ... he was ill with tuberculosis —Current Biography, July 1966 • ... she was ill of a fever —Harrison Smith, Saturday Rev., 28 Feb. 1953 • He was put in bed ill of the fever —Joseph Whitehill, American Scholar, Winter 1967-68 |
