however的用法(however到底怎么用?)
1. 用作副词,注意以下用法:
(1) 表现妥协,意为“无论如何”“不管怎样”,用来润饰形容词或副词,其词序为:however+形容词或副词+主语+谓语。这样用的however其实具有连词的功效,用以引诱一个妥协状语从句。
如:
However much he eats, he never gets fat.
不管他吃多少,他永远吃不胖。
However cold it is, he always goes swimming.
不管天有多冷,他都去游泳。
However far it is, I intend t百思特网o drive there tonight.
不管有多远,我今晚也要开车到那儿去。
这样用的 however 与 no matter how 大致同义。
如:
No matter how much he eats, he never gets fat.
No matter how cold it is, he always goes swimming.
No matter how far it is, I intend to drive there ton百思特网ight.
有时从句谓语可用情态动词。
如:
Don’t laugh, however funny it may be.
无论多么有趣也不要笑。
I’ll try to finish it in time, however hard it may be.
无论多么难,我也要按时完成。
另外,“however+形容词或副词+主语+谓语”有时可以有所省略。
如:
I refuse, however favourable the conditions. 不管条件如何有利,我都不干。(conditions后省去了are)
I’d rather have a room of my own, however small (it is), than share a room.
无论房间多么小,我情愿一个人住一间,而不愿意与别人合住一个房间。
A grammar rule, however true (it is), is useless unless it can be understood.
一条语法规矩,不管如何准确,除非能懂,否则毫无用途。
(2) 表现转折,尤其用于谈及一个既成事实时,表现转折,其意为“可是”“仍然”等。可放在句首、句中或句末,通常用逗号与句子其他成分隔开。
如:
My father, however, did not agree.
但是,我父亲不赞成。
My room (www.isoyu.com原创版权)is small; however, it’s comfortable.
我的房间很小,但却很舒畅。
He said that it was so; he was mistaken, however.
他说情形如此,可是他错了。
注意,however不能像 but(但是)那样直接衔接百思特网两个句子(注意正句中的标点符号)。
如:
我们都已尽了最大的尽力,不过我们还是输了。
误:We all tried our best, however we lost the game.
正:We all tried our best, but we lost the game.
正:We all tried our best; however, we lost the game.
正:We all tried our best. However, we lost the game.
(3) 表现惊奇或强调,相当于how ever的用法,其意为“毕竟怎样,到底以什么方法”。
如:
However did you get here without a car?
没有汽车你毕竟是怎样来的呢?
However does he manage to write music when he is so deaf?
他聋成这个样子,毕竟是怎样从事作曲的呢?
2. 用作连词,引诱方法状语从句,表现“无论以何种方法”“不管怎样”。
如:
However it may be, I shall take your word.
无论如何,我将会信任你的话。
The painting looks wrong however you look at it.
