片語有沒有加 the 的差別
=====================================================================================
01 文法使用錯誤範例 Sample of Wrong Grammar
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A: Would you lend me some money?
你能借我一些錢嗎?
B: None of the questions (X). → Out of the question (O) → 不可能
Out of question (O) → 沒問題
=====================================================================================
02 文法誤用詳細解析 Grammar Analysis
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
英文中有若干片語,有沒有加 the,意思差很大。上述範例就是其一。其餘說明如下:
(1) 指地點的介系詞片語,沒有加 the 者常指該地點的功能或是目的,例如:go to school 是去執行學校的功能或目的,也就是「上學」之意;go to office 是去執行辦公室的功能或目的,也就是「上班」之意。若加上 the,則是指所接名詞之建築物本身,例如:go to the school 只是前往學校那幢建築物,而非上學;go to the office 只是去那間辦公室,而非上班。同理:
He is in hospital.(他住院。)
He is in the hospital.(他去那間醫院。)→ 可能是去辦別的事,而非住院
(2) play games → 玩世不恭;play the game → 為人正直。live in the country → 住在鄉下(英式說法);live in this country→ 住在這個國家。
在後面這個例子中,「住在鄉下」的英式說法為 live in the country,美國人則說成 live up the country。除了country hits(鄉村樂流行曲)、country fans(鄉村樂迷)、country cousins(鄉巴佬)等慣用語中的 country 指鄉村之外,以下的country 均指國家:throughout / all over the country, this / that country。
上述範例中的兩個答句皆適用於此,只是意思不同且恰好相反。 而英文中並沒有none of the questions 這個片語。
