add与add to的用法区别？

add与add to的用法区别？

1. add 用作及物动词，表示"加；增加",常与介词to连用,即" add ... to ...","把......加到......中去；往......中加......"。例如：
If you add 4 to 6, you get 10. 4加6等于10。
Add some hot water if you think the coffee is much too strong. 如果你觉得这咖啡太浓,就加点儿热水。
2. add 作不及物动词，表示"补充(说道)",即"又说；继续说"。例如：
"And I expect your little sister will come, too,"added she. 她接着又说："而且我希望你的小妹妹也能来。"
Mother added that we must get back as soon as possible. 妈妈接着又说我们必须尽早回来。
3. add to（add 作不及物动词用）表示"增加；增添",其中to是介词,后接名词或代词。有时也可用来表示"(房屋的)扩建"或"(书的)续写"等。例如：
Each girl present at the party was wearing a flower in the hair, which added to their beauty. 参加晚会的姑娘人人头上都戴有一朵花,使得她们显得愈加漂亮。
The soldiers were extremely tired and the heavy rain added to their difficulty. 战士们累极了,而大雨更是增加了他们的困难。
This old house has been added to from time to time. 这幢老房子曾一再扩建。
Has that book of his been added to later? 他的那本书后来曾续写过吗？

可能你也看出来了，add 不管作及物动词（add ）还是不及物动词（add to ），都有“增加，增添”的意思，但是，add to 增加的内容似乎抽象得多（比如例句里的“beauty ”“difficulty ”），让人感觉稍微带了点感情色彩，而不是纯粹的增加某具体物（比如例句里的water ）。

希望能解决你的疑惑，望采纳，谢谢！参考资料：语法达人团
