reply的釋義：v.回復(fù);答復(fù);回答;回應(yīng);作出反應(yīng)；n.答復(fù);回答。例句：He said in reply that the question was unfair.他回答說這個(gè)問題不公平。

1.reply用作名詞的意思是“回答,答復(fù)”,引申可指“答案”。

2.reply常與介詞to連用。

3.當(dāng)reply指“回答”時(shí)，是及物動(dòng)詞。

4.當(dāng)reply指“答復(fù)”時(shí)，是不及物動(dòng)詞，如有賓語應(yīng)加介詞to，賓語應(yīng)該是答復(fù)的具體對象。

5.reply后不可接人和that從句；

6.answer與reply有區(qū)別：answer是及物動(dòng)詞，可以直接跟賓語，也可以用answer to的結(jié)構(gòu)，前者更常用。而reply作“答復(fù)”解時(shí)，是不及物動(dòng)詞，必須用to。answer有具體回答問題的意思，而reply僅僅是回復(fù)。

7.reply可用作及物動(dòng)詞,也可用作不及物動(dòng)詞。用作不及物動(dòng)詞時(shí)常與介詞to或for連用; 用作及物動(dòng)詞時(shí)接that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句,有時(shí)也可引出直接引語。

Please reply as soon as is practicably possible.

請盡早回復(fù)。
