at the first time 和 for the first time的区别

1、the first time之后接一个定语从句，用that，when引导均可，或者干脆省略。

I retired the first time when he was the coach.

I retired the first time that he was the coach.

I retired the first time he was the coach.

翻译我在他初次当教练时退的休。

2、for the first time是个介词词组，意为“第一次，首次，初次”，一般用作状语，修饰动词。

She met him at the cinema for the first time.? 她第一次碰到他是在电影院里。

I took an airplane for the first time in my life.? 我有生以来第一次搭飞机。

3、以下句子反映出两个词组的差别，两句话的意思相同。

Mary was a shy girl?the first time?(that/when) I met her. （the first time用作连词）

Mary was a shy girl when I met her?for the first time.（for the first time用作状语，修饰met）
