Incorrect english: I and my roommate went to the store. Correct english: My roommate and i went to the store. 解释: 这里的问题是:当i我与别的人称代词或名词同时作主语时,它们的顺序该如何安排? 规则是:如果主语包括i与别的人,i总是放在最后;而汉语中则习惯性把我放在第一,这与英语完全不问。 Examples: Frad,john,mr.stfwart,and i live on the same street. The group of athletes and i went to the football field together. Bill and i do not have a very good relationship. 注意: 有多个主语时,以英语为母语的人通常用me作一个主语,并把它放在其他主语前面.语法上是错误的, 但你可能会听到:me and wes are going to watch the baseball game on tv tonight. 虽然他很矮，但是他能跑得很快. Incorrect english: Although he is very short, but he can run very fast. Correct english: Although he is very short, he can run fast He is very short, but he can run fast. 解释: 这里的问题是:我们可以用 although 或 but ,但不能同时用，因为这是错误的，其中一个就已经表达了 “虽然...但是...”的意思。 规则是:although 比 but 更正规些。 Examples: Although I’m tired, I still want to go out and see a movie. I’m tired, but i still want to go out and see a movie. Although Nancy does not like her boss, she likes going to work anyway. |
