match

Compared meaning: to agree with or fit something (verb).

比较义项：与某事相符、一致（动词）。

• match 本词

  The plainest and most common word; used for things such as colors, sizes or styles that go well together, and takes a direct object without any preposition.

  这三个词中最简单常用的一个；指颜色、尺寸、风格等具体事物“相配”，可以直接接宾语，不需要加介词。

  The colors of the curtains match the sofa perfectly.

  窗帘的颜色和沙发完美相配。

• correspond

  More formal and written in tone; almost always followed by 'with' or 'to', and typically used for facts, records or numbers that should agree with each other.

  语气更正式、书面化；几乎总是跟介词 with 或 to 连用，通常用于事实、记录或数字之间是否一致。

  The measurements did not correspond to the values listed in the manual.

  这些测量数据与说明书上列出的数值不相符。

• jibe

  Informal, mainly American English; appears almost only in negative sentences with 'with', saying that someone's story or statement does not add up.

  非正式用语，主要用于美式英语；几乎只出现在带 with 的否定句中，表示某人的说法“对不上”、不一致。

  His explanation just doesn't jibe with what the neighbors saw.

  他的解释和邻居们看到的情况对不上。

All three mean agreeing with something. Match is common, informal, for colors or styles that go together, not a game. Correspond is formal, followed by with or to, for facts or numbers agreeing. Jibe is informal, used almost only in negative sentences, not a taunt.

这三个词在“与某事相符、一致”这个意义上很接近，但语域和搭配不同：match 最常用、最口语化，也可以直接指外观、颜色等具体事物“相配”；correspond 偏正式、书面，常与 with 或 to 连用，多用于事实、记录或数字之间是否一致；jibe 是美式口语用法，几乎只用在否定句里，表示某人的话“对不上”。这里不比较 match 作名词表示“比赛”的意思，也不比较 jibe 作名词表示“讽刺话、挖苦话”的意思。
