Attach to

《延禧攻略》播放完畢，相信不少劇迷感到莫名的失落。大概是因為太投入了，依戀着劇中的角色（attached to the characters）。曲終人散，自然會感到失落。

動詞attach本義指「繫上、綁着、附上、連接」，要說明連接「到」那裏，需要後接介詞「to」--attach something to something。例句︰You will need to attach a photo to the application form.（你需要將照片附在申請表上。）You can attach the scanner to the computer using this USB cable.（你可以使用這USB電綫將掃描器連接到電腦。）

Attach也可以引伸指「把（責任、重要性、價值）歸附於」，常用attach blame/importance to somebody/something。例句︰She never attached blame to anyone for anything, and rarely complained.（她從未責怪任何人，而且很少抱怨。）We attach great importance to quality and sustainability.（我們非常重視質量和可持續性。）

Attach的過去分詞（past participle）attached可以用作形容詞，解「依戀、喜歡」，to like someone or something very much。句式用be attached to somebody/something。例句︰Young children are very attached to their parents.（年幼的小孩非常依戀父母。）She is very attached to the doll sewed by her mother.（她非常喜歡母親縫製的娃娃。）
