特别喜爱的英语（“偏爱”用英语如何表达）

那天他问我: "为什么喜欢看小说"我沉默了几秒，看向他说"因为我的青春太安静，我想看看别人青春中明目张胆的偏爱"

（我觉得这句话说进我心坎里了）

“偏爱”用英语如何表达呢？

• like sth better
• have a weakness for (someone or something)
• give/show preference to someone/something

like sth better

“like more”和“like better”都很常见，但“like more”通常被认为更加正式。因为一些英国英语为母语的人错误地认为“like better”是美式英语,即使“like something better”比“like something more“早出现几个世纪,且在英国文学中很常见。

例句：

I like apples more than oranges. (正确,更正式)

I like apples better than oranges. (正确，可能被一些人认为是口语)

have a weakness for (someone or something)

thefreedictionary中的英文释义：

To have a special affinity for someone or something; to find someone or something irresistible.

对某人或某事有特殊的亲和力;觉得某人或某事不可抗拒。

例句：

I have a weakness for chocolate.

我特别喜欢巧克力。

I have a weakness for candy bars, so Halloween is my favorite holiday.

我特别喜欢吃糖果，所以万圣节是我最喜欢的节日。

Stu has a weakness for Patty, so I'm sure he'll clear his schedule once he hears she's in town.

斯图特别喜欢帕蒂，所以我相信一旦他听说帕蒂来了，他就会取消他的日程安排。

give/show preference to someone/something

麦克米兰辞典：

to treat someone or something better than someone or something else, or to give an advantage to someone or something

对待某人或某物比某人或某物更好，或给予某人或某物优势

例句：
