方硕英语

take into account

英 /teɪk ɪnˈtuː əˈkaʊnt/美 /teɪk ɪnˈtuː əˈkaʊnt/

v. 动词（短语）

考虑；顾及；把…纳入考虑范围

词义解析

本义为“将某物纳入计算或账目”，引申为“在思考、决策时纳入某因素”。核心义项有二：1) 正式考虑某事实、情况或建议，如“We must take into account the cost.”；2) 顾及某人的感受或需求，如“A good teacher takes students' needs into account.”。从“记账”到“权衡”，强调全面性，而非粗略提及。

词源解析

“take”源自古英语“tacan”，意为“拿取”；“into”表示“进入”；“account”源自拉丁语“computare”（计算），经古法语“acompte”进入英语，原指“账目”。短语字面意思为“把…拿进账目”，即“把…算进去”，由此引申为“考虑”。记忆时可联想：做决策如同记账，需将各因素列入账本。

常见语境

常见于正式场合。学术写作中用于强调研究变量，如“The model takes into account multiple factors.”；商务邮件中用于权衡利弊，如“Please take into account the budget constraints.”；新闻报道中用于政策分析，如“The plan fails to take into account regional disparities.”；法律文本中用于考量事实，如“The court must take into account the defendant's circumstances.”。日常口语中较少使用，但说“Take into account that...”也自然，语气略显正式。

语法说明

及物动词短语，后接名词或从句。常见句型：1) take sth into account；2) take into account sth（当宾语较长时，倒装）；3) take into account that...（后接从句）。易错点：宾语为代词时须置于中间，如“take it into account”，不可说“take into account it”；被动语态为“be taken into account”，如“All factors were taken into account.”。

近义比较

与“consider”同义，但“take into account”更强调将因素作为决策依据，语气更正式；“allow for”侧重预留余地，如“allow for delays”；“factor in”是美式口语用法，更非正式；“bear in mind”强调牢记于心，如“Bear in mind that...” 。选择时，正式文书用“take into account”，日常提醒可用“bear in mind”，预算讨论用“factor in”。

常见误区

语域中性偏正式，适用于书面和正式口语。无贬义，但若用于指责他人遗漏因素，则带批评意味，如“They failed to take into account the risks.”。常见误用：与“take into consideration”混淆，二者可互换，但“account”更强调量化计算；“take into account”后不可直接接动词原形，需接名词或动名词。

常见搭配

take something into account考虑某事
take into account the fact that考虑到…的事实
fail to take into account未能考虑
take into account all factors考虑所有因素
take into account individual differences考虑个体差异
be taken into account被考虑
take into account the cost考虑成本
