sufʹferer n.(名词)sufʹferingly adv.(副词)- In general usagesuffer is preferably used with from, rather than with, in constructions such as He suffered from hypertension. According to 94 percent of the Usage Panel,suffered with would be unacceptable in the preceding example. In medical usagesuffer with is sometimes employed with reference to the actual pain or discomfort caused by a condition, whilesuffer from is used more broadly in reference to a condition, such as anemia, that is detrimental but not necessarily painful.就一般用法而言,在诸如他患有高血压症 这样的结构中, suffer 最好是与 from 连用,而不是 with 。 百分之九十四的用法委员会认为,在上一个例子中用suffer with 将不被接受。 在医学上,suffer with 有时用来指示某种状况引起的具体疼痛或不适, 而suffer from 则多用来表示一种状况,如贫血症, 这种状况是有害的但不一定是痛苦的或引起疼痛的
