do a favor to sb还是for

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

favor作为名词，解释为帮助时，有以下几个常用词组

1. do somebody a favour (=do something for someone)
2. do sth. as a favour (to somebody) (=because you want to be kind, not because you have to)
3. ask somebody a favour/ask a favour of somebody (=ask someone to do something for you)

一般不说do a favor to/for sb.，而是说do sth. as a favor to sb.或do sth for sb.
如果非要用的话，根据英英词典的内容，for 和to应该都是可以的（根据第二条的内容，我更倾向于和to搭配。）
