一、详细释义:
v.
赞成,同意;赞许 [I,T]

二、词义辨析:
approve,confirm,sanction
这些动词均有“批准”之意。approve普通用词,常指正式的或官方的批准。confirm强调按法律程序提请确认或批准。sanction语气最强,多指官方的同意或批准,是书面用词。
三、词义辨析:
agree,consent,approve,comply,subscribe
这些动词均含“同意、赞同”之意。agree普通用词,侧重指对某事同其他人有相同的意见或想法。consent指同意别人的请求、建议或满足他人的愿望,着重意愿或感情,常和to连用。approve侧重对认为正确或满意的事表示赞同或批准。作不及物动词用时,常与of连用。comply指答应某人已经提出或可能要求做的某事,与with连用。subscribe指完全地赞成已阐明的立场。多用于比较愿意支持一种立场或为一种立场所辩护的情况。
