- 词义辨析
demand from, demand of
这两个短语共同的意思是“要求,索要”。它们的区别是:1.用介词from时更强调from的宾语sb; 用介词of时更强调动词demand的宾语sth。2.在用法上, demand of后可接动词不定式,而demand from则不能。例如:He demanded 1000 dollars from me.他向我索要了1000美元。Every week he demanded ten yuan of his father for books.他每周向他父亲要10元钱买书。He demanded of me to keep secret.他要求我保密。

词源词根法
de-,向下,强调。-mand,要求,命令,词源同command(n.&v.命令)。de-加强意义+-mand-命令。所以就是强调命令,还是等于要求的概念,进一步引申为需要和查询之意。

单词用法
用作动词时,及物,要表示“需求某物”,说demand sth即可,不说demand for sth。
但是用作名词时,其后可接for:The workersˈdemand for higher wages seems reasonable.工人增加工资的要求是合理的。
后接that从句时,从句谓语多用“should+动词原形”:
I demand that John(should)go there at once.
我要求约翰马上去那儿。
一般不接不定式的复合结构,即不用于demand sb to do sth,遇此情况可改用从句或在sb之前加介词of,如:
He demanded of us to tell him everything.
He demanded that we(should)tell him everything.
他要求我们把一切都告诉他。
