用法辨析
- opposite用作副词时意思是“在对面”,在句中多用作状语。
- opposite可指空间位置上的“对面的”,也可指两件东西被认为位于一直线的两端,在地位、性质、意义等方面“对立”或“相反”。
- opposite用作定语时,主要指空间位置上的关系,作“对面的”解,可前置,也可后置。前置时表示一对相对的物体或事物中的一个,两者有相互依存的关系,这种关系是客观的,永久的; 而后置时则表示暂时的空间关系或在讲话人或被谈论的人的对面。opposite作“相反的”解时可作前置定语,也可作表语。
- opposite无比较级和最高级。
- opposite用作名词时意思是“对立面,对立物,相反的人或事物”,是可数名词,通常与of连用。
- opposite作形容词表示“对面的”时,后常加介词to,不过句子中的to常被省略。I live opposite (to) the post office. 我住在邮局的对面。
- 当表示“相对的,相反的”时,opposite to中的to可以更改为from,但是不普遍。My view is opposite to/from yours. 我的看法和你的相反。
- opposite后有时可加of。My view is the very opposite of yours. 我的想法和你的非常相反。
- 当opposite表示“对面的”时,在句子中一般放在被修饰的名字的后面,作后置定语。有时,opposite也可放在被修饰名词的前面,作前置定语。The house opposite is an old one. 对面的房子是旧的。The opposite house is an old one. 对面的房子是旧的。
- contrary,converse和opposite的区别:以句子All men are mortal(所有人都是凡人。)为例,该句子的contrary是Not all men are mortal.(不是所有的人都是凡人。)该句子的converse是All mortal beings are men.(所有的凡人都是人。)而该句子的opposite则是No men are mortal.(没有人是凡人。)contrary包含了opposite,作为它的极端形式。It is white. 但是有多个contraries如It is not white.It is coloured.
adv. (副词)
