3 关于 like for sb to do sth

I’d like for you to meet my parents. 我想要你见见我的父母。

请问这个句子中的 for 用得对吗?

感觉平时见到的都是 like sb to do sth,不用 for 的吧!

I’d like for you to meet my parents. 我想要你见见我的父母。

这是美国英语的用法,在英国英语中不加 for(在英国英语中加上 for 通常被视为错误的用法)。类似的动词还有 want, prefer 等。如:

美:I want for you to do this. 我想让你做这件事。

英:I want you to do this. 我想让你做这件事。

美:They all preferred for you to stay. 他们都希望你留下。

英:They all preferred you to stay. 他们都希望你留下。

这个用法没有问题,只是无论在美国还是在英国都用得不多,所以大家看到的基本都是不用for的用法。此用法英美两国都见得到,不过美国稍多些而已。我引Grammar of Spoken and Written English中的解释 Verb + for NP + to-clauseIn addition, some verbs of desire optionally take for + NP before a to-clause:

I would like Sir Alec to carry on. (fict)                                        

V. But I would like for you to do one thing if you would. (fict)

Certainly, but I should hate you to forget that he has scored more runs in Test cricket than any other Englishman. (BrE news)

V. I’d hate for all that stuff to go bad. (AmE conv)

At the other extreme, Pattern 3 is rare, especially in BrE. However, it is slightly more common in AmE conversation, as in:

I would just like for you to live without my income. (AmE conv)

以上是2021版。

再看2016年一本书的解释 Examples like I want for you to be happy are on the border between standard and non- standard, at least in British English.A Critical Account of English Syntax 2016

但是,在有些情况下,for却是不能省略的,比如:I would like very badly *?(for) Frances to buy the book. 因为中间有状语。

在特殊疑问句中有些情况下却又不能用 Who would you like (*for) to buy the book?

有些可以用 What  would you like (for) him to buy?

原因就是for不可以与特殊疑问词连用。以上两句一是who作主语不可以,一是what作宾语,可用可不用。另外,类似的还有want,但是用for的情况更为少见,但必用和不用的情况类同 ’d like. I want very much for you to go.  They had wanted all along for the performance to begin at six. It had been wanted all along for the performance to begin at six.

如果想了解的更详细些,可以参考剑桥语法中有关章节。

不能算错,只是句子结构有些许偏差:

I’d like sb to do:不定式作为sb的宾补

I’d like for sb to doto do作为like的宾语,sbto do的逻辑主语

I’d like to do sthto do作为like宾语,I为不定式逻辑主语
