Question

i haven't enough money to pay for that car
请问改成i haven't enough money to pay that car少个for有区别吗?

Answer 1

有区别
pay用作及物动词时,后面接表示人的词语,即pay sb．意为“付款给某人”.如：
He paid me five yuan．他付了我五元钱.
pay for中的pay为不及物动词,其宾语多为物,即pay for sth．,意为“付款买某物”；其宾语为人时,即pay for sb．,意为“替某人付款.”如：
Shall I pay for you?我替你付款好吗?
因此第二句词法上来说是个错误句子
