Abbeymade him stay to tea.
这里的介词to怎么样理解含义？用for不能吗？
stay to 为习语，意为To remain in some location in order to have a meal . 即留在某处和某人一块用餐或喝下午茶。一般介词to后接breakfast，lunch,dinner, tea等名词。比如：
A: "Would you like to stay to dinner,Jeff?" B: "Sure! I'll have to ask my parents first, though."
I hope you will stay to dinner.
I stayed to lunch because they were having friedshrimp.
这个意义中的to也可以用for替换。但for的意思更广，不限于吃饭、喝茶。
Would you please stay for dinner? I am sorry, butwe cannot stay for dinner.
Are you going to stay for the after party withthe rest of the cast?
