释义
might     

might have done
 【问】 He might have realized that you were pulling his leg.
 请说明句子里might have realized的含义。
 【答】 这是个歧义句。
 A. might+完成体不定式有时用来表示埋怨或训斥(埋怨对方本应该做的事而没有做),这个结构在语义上相当于should+完成体不定式或ought to+完成体不定式,可以译为“本应该”(If you tell someone that they might have done something,you are telling in an angry waythat they ought to have done it.):
 1. You might have let me know before! (Mansfield)
 你本应该在以前让我知道!
 2. But I think you might have told us half an hour ago. (Shaw)
 但是我认为你本该在半小时前告诉我们。
 3. You might have warned me she was coming. (CGEL)
 你本应该通知我她要来的。
 按照这种理解,你提问的句子的意思是:
 他本该明白你是在跟他开玩笑。(He ought to have realized that you were pulling his leg. )
 B.情态动词might+完成体不定式表示(从现在的观点看来)“可能已发生了某事”(If you
 say that something might have happened,you mean that it is possible that it happened. )
 1. He might well have said that. (EED)
 他很可能说过这样的话。
 2. I might have come to a wrong conclusion. (Priestley)
 我可能得出了错误的结论。
 按照这种分析,你提问的句子的意思是:
 他可能已经明白了你是在跟他开玩笑。
 (might have done的其他含义见may have done)
