一般来说,我们认为副词是一个范畴,但实际上它是三个不同的概念组合在一起:修饰形容词的、修饰动词的和修饰副词的。大多数副词都可以扮演这三种角色,所以在英语中它们被合并成一组。但这里你可以发现一个例外。
"Very", "extremely", and a few others can modify adjectives and other adverbs, but they cannot modify verbs directly. So you could say "I very much like this", or even use a different adjective-derived adverb as in "I certainly like this", but not *"I very like this" or *"I extremely like this".
Very, extremely, 和一些其他的词可以修饰形容词和其他副词,但不能直接修饰动词。所以你可以说,“I very much like this”,或者用一个不同的形容词衍生副词,比如,“I certainly like this”, 但是不能说“ I very like this”,或者“I extremely like this”。
I very like it. (X)
I like it very much. (√)
I very want to get that job. (X)
I want to get that job very much. (√)
有首英文歌《 I Really Like You 》,相信很多人都听过。没错,really 可以作为副词来修饰 like,表示非常喜欢。
如果想要表达喜欢某个人或者某些东西,除了 like 和 love 之外,还有什么别的说法吗?
Fall for sb/fall in love with sb.
陷入爱河,对某人动心
例句:
Men fall for her the moment they saw her.
看到她第一眼,男人们都为之倾倒。
