英文簡單學 – 對等連接詞|EF ENGLISH LIVE部落格


英文的連接詞和介系詞都是簡短的一個小字,但可不要弄混了,它們在語意表達上的功能是不相同的。連接詞顧名思義就是連結句子中的字彙和子句的意義,依照使用的類型共分為三種 :

A. 對等連接詞:

  1. and / but / or / so / for / yet

B. 配對連接詞:

  1. both …and / not only … but also / either … or / neither … nor

C. 從屬連接詞:

  1. 表示時間  after, before, when, while, as soon as, as long as, so long as, since, until

  2. 表示原因  as, because, since, now that

  3. 表示條件   if, unless, whether or not, even if, in case, in the event that

  4. 表示對比  although, though, even though, while, whereas
