“名词动用”英语语法：名词作动词的用法/常见单词/例句

学习英语语法，名词和动词应该是小朋友们最熟悉的两个词性了吧~ 名词指的是”a word that identifies a person, place or thing, or names one of them”，即用来表示人、事物、地点等的词汇。动词指的则是表示动作、行为、状态的词汇。

根据定义来看，这两大词性各司其职，没有什么共同点，但事实上，很多名词都具有双重身份，在语法世界中肩负着“名词”和“动词”双重责任。

首先举例来体会一下同一个词汇不同性质下的使用吧：

Though the boy tried to use his broken alarm clock as an excuse (noun), the teacher would not excuse (verb) his absence on the day of the final exam.

尽管这个男孩试图用闹钟坏了作为借口（名词），但老师不能原谅（动词）他在期末考试那天缺席。

另外，一些“双性”词汇作为名词和动词时的读音也不相同，通常情况下，当这个词汇作为名词使用时，重音应该放在第一个音节，当这个词汇作为动词使用时，重音应该放在第二个音节。比如：

常见的“双性”词汇有：

noun：The law specifically forbids acts（行为）of this kind.

verb：She acted（行动）without thinking.

noun：I need your home and your business address（地址）.

verb：I addressed（写地址）envelopes all morning.
