2017年高考英语词汇详解:again的用法
高考英语词汇详解:again的用法
1. 不与那些已含有 again 意义的动词 连用:
请再说一遍。
正:Please repeat it. / Please say it again.
误:Please repeat it again.
但若要强调,again 本身却可以叠用:I have told you againand again not to play there. 我已再三叫你们不要在那儿玩。
有时也可见 again 与 repeat 之类的词连用,那表示的是第三次而不是第二次:Repeat it again, please. 请把它再重复一遍 。
2. again 虽然可以表示“再”、“又”,但并不是汉语中所有的“再”、“又”都能用 again 来翻译的:
我们班又有两个学生入了团。
正:Two more students in our class joined the League.
正:Another two students in our class joined the League.
误:Two students in our class joined the League again.
