as if 好像 彷彿

as if he is left handed 像是左撇子
如用更過去的時態表示不是真的
as if he were left handed 冒充左撇子
此句為非正式

倒裝

直接移動動詞(包括普通動詞)
引用句
倒裝原因是因為修辭更清楚
直接引用,引用部分移到句首以加強語氣

間接引用
倒裝到句首要加,
The WHO warns (that) cholera is coming back
-> Cholera is coming back, warns the WHO

-
形容詞子句
(關係子句)
子句有重複詞建立的關係
-
和名詞子句.副詞子句易混淆點
1.Wh-的混淆
關係詞修飾先行詞=形容詞子句
疑問詞帶出=名詞子句
外加的從屬連接詞(when, where)=副詞子句
2.Wh-ever的混淆
先行詞是anything=形容詞子句
解釋為anythin that, anyone that=名詞子句
相當於no matter + 疑問詞表讓步=副詞子句
3.that的混淆
單獨無意義的連接詞that=名詞子句
so that, such that, in order that, in that=副詞子句
相當於關係詞有指示功能沒有逗點=形容詞子句

v: We ran, jumped, and shouted
n: George, Mary, and Jane were always together
