Ought to is sometimes used without a following verb if the meaning is clear: 如果意思明确，有时ought to 后面不需跟动词： Should we begin soon? Yes, we ought to. 我们马上开始吗? 是的，开始。 2. In questions and negative sentences,especially those with contractions,to is also sometimes omitted: 在疑问句和否定句中，尤其是带缩写的这些句子中，to 有时也会被省略： Oughtn't we be going soon? 难道我们不马上走吗? 3. Although the omission ofto was formerly possible in English, it is now considered nonstandard. ·Usages such asHe hadn't ought to come and She shouldn't ought to say that are common in many varieties of American English. They should be avoided in written English,however, in favor of the more standard variantought not to. 尽管以前在英语里省略to 是可能的， 但现在这样做就会被认为不标准。例如他不会来 和 她不该说 之类的用法在各种美式英语中很普遍。 但在书面英语中应避免这样使用，而应使用更标准的变体ought not to ought 2 ought 2 AHD: [ôt] D.J.
