请问一下neither和either的区别和用法...还有什么 other the other的区别
either和neither的用法:
either意思是“两个中间的任何一个”;neither是either的否定形式,意思是“两个都不”.
neither和either在句子中可作主语、宾语和定语等,都用作单数.
如:I don’t care much for what to drink. Either of the two will do. (我不介意喝些什么,两个之中随便哪个都行)
--Will you go there by bus or by car? –Neither. I will go there by train.(你坐公车去还是坐轿车去?一个都不坐,我坐火车去.)
1.other意思是“另一”、“另一些”,复数,others.在句子中可作主语、宾语和定语.
Some girls are singing under the big apple tree and others are sitting on the grass talking.(有些女孩在大苹果树下唱歌,别的就躺在草地上说话)
2.another意思是“另外”、“又一个”,表示增加,在句中可作宾语和定语.
如:You have had several cakes. Do you really want another one?(你已经吃了好几块饼子了,你真的还要一块?) / I want another four books.(我还要四本书)
3.the other(另外的一个,复数 the others) 与another(另外的,再一,又一)主要从数量上区分,只有两个时用the other,在原先基础上增加用another.
如: This is one of your socks. Where is the other one?(这是你的一只袜子,还有一只呢?) /
I have eaten 4 cakes, but I still want another.(我已经吃了4块蛋糕,但是我还要以块.)
4.others与the others的主要区别:others指“剩余的人/物”(指大部分);
the others指“其余的人/物”,(指全部).
如:A few students are playing soccer while others are watching them.(有几个学生在踢足球,其他一些人在观看)
Two of the ten boys are standing and the others are sitting round them.十个男孩中两个站着,剩下的八个围着他们坐着
