Dare sometimes behaves like an ordinary verb, for example ‘He dared to speak’ and ‘He doesn't dare to speak’ and sometimes like a modal, for example ‘He daren't speak’.

dare 有时用作普通动词,如,He dared to speak (他敢讲话)和 He doesn't dare to speak (他不敢讲话);有时又用作情态动词,如,He daren't speak (他不敢讲话)。

1. VERB 敢;有足够的胆量 If you do not dare to do something, you do not have enough courage to do it, or you do not want to do it because you fear the consequences. If you dare to do something, you do something which requires a lot of courage.

Usage Note :

You can leave out the word to after dare in the above sense. Nobody dared complain. The form dares is never used in a question or in a negative statement. You use dare instead. Dare she tell him?... He dare not enter.

dare 用于以上义项时,其后的 to 可以省略:Nobody dared complain (没有人敢抱怨)。在疑问句或否定句中,不可用 dares, 而应用 dare:Dare she tell him (她敢告诉他吗),He dare not enter. (他不敢进去)。
