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 用於以上義項時,其後的 to 可以省略:Nobody dared complain (沒有人敢抱怨)。在疑問句或否定句中,不可用 dares, 而應用 dare:Dare she tell him (她敢告訴他嗎),He dare not enter. (他不敢進去)。
