爱华网既可用作及物动词，也可用作不及物动词，意为“结婚、嫁、娶、与……结婚”等。常见用法如下：

四、marry用作不及物动词时，往往用副词或介词短语来修饰。如：

她20岁时结了婚。

五、marry一般不与介词with连用。如：
她和一位英国人结了婚。
【误】 She married with an Englishman.
【正】 She married an Englishman.
【正】 She was / got married to an Englishman.
六、若问某人是否已结婚，而不涉及结婚对象，用be / get
married的形式，相当于系表结构。如：
你结婚了吗？
【误】 Do you marry? / Have you married?
【正】 Are you married? / Have you got married?
【特别提示一】 在西方国家，一般不要问别人的婚姻状况，这是个人隐私。因此最好不要随便问“Are
you married? / How many children do you
have?”之类的问题。当不知女士是Miss还是Mrs时,请用Ms称呼。
【特别提示二】 一个名叫Mary Smith的女士，婚前可称之为Miss Smith；嫁给Mr
Brown后，她便改称为Mary Brown，也可称之为Mrs Brown。
