THAM KHẢO

I Cấu trúc sugggest

Cấu trúc 1: Suggest + noun/noun phrase (Suggest + danh từ/cụm danh từ)

Trong trường hợp này thì cụm danh từ đóng vai trò là tân ngữ của động từ suggest

Ví dụ:

I suggest a white wine with this dish (Tôi đề nghị dùng rượu vang trắng với

món ăn này.)

- She suggested some milk with bread for breakfast (Cô ấy gợi ý một chút sữa

với bánh mì cho bữa sáng)

- He suggested a song of his favorite singer (Anh ấy đề xuất một bài hát của

ca sĩ anh yêu thích)

- Trong trường hợp muốn đề cập đến đối tượng nhận được lời đề nghị, ta dùng

―suggest smt to sb‖

Ví dụ:

My teacher suggested a course I could sign up for at the end of the year

=> My teacher suggested a course to me which I could sign up for at the end of the year

(Giáo viên của tôi đề xuất cho tôi 1 khóa học mà tôi có thể đăng ký vào cuối năm.)

Can you suggest a good dictionary to me? (Bạn có thể gợi ý một cuốn từ điển

tốt cho tôi được không?)

She suggested an amazing book to him (Cô ấy gợi ý một cuốn sách hay cho

tôi)

Cấu trúc 2: Suggest + that-clause (Suggest + mệnh đề “that”)

Khi đưa ra 1 đề xuất, ý kiến, ta có thể sử dụng mệnh đề ―that‖ theo sau động từ suggest Trong những tình huống không trang trọng, ta có thể bỏ ―that‖ ra khỏi mệnh đề

Ví dụ:

- I suggest (that) we go out to have dinner I know a very good restaurant

(Tôi đề nghị chúng ta ra ngoài ăn tối Tôi biết 1 nhà hàng rất ngon.)

- He suggested (that) everybody go camping in the next summer (Anh ấy gợi ý

mọi người có thể đi cắm trại vào mùa hè tới)

- They suggest (that) all pages are numbered from 1 to 20 (Họ đề nghị các

trang phải được đánh số từ 1 đến 20)

*** Chú ý: Trong trường hợp dùng mệnh đề “that” thì động từ theo sau luôn ở dạng nguyên mẫu không “to”

Ví dụ:

- The doctor suggests that he (should) lose some weights (Bác sĩ khuyên anh ấy

nên giảm cân)

=> Chủ ngữ là he nhưng động từ lose không chia

- Her doctor suggested that she should reduce her working hours and take more exercise (Bác sĩ khuyên cô ấy nên làm việc ít lại và tập thể dục nhiều hơn)

- They suggested that I (should) practice speaking English more (Họ gợi ý rằng tôi nên tập nói tiếng Anh nhiều hơn)

Ví dụ:

- He suggested travelling together for safety, since the area was so dangerous

(Anh ấy đề xuất nên đi du lịch cùng nhau cho an toàn vì khu vực đó rất nguy hiểm.)

- I suggested going swimming in summer (Tôi đề xuất đi bơi vào mùa hè)

- She suggested reading more books to broaden the mind (Cô ấy đề xuất nên đọc nhiều sách hơn để mở rộng kiến thức)
