介系詞 (Prepositions)
介系詞是用來表示它後面的「受詞」與句子中其他字之間的關係。這種關係通常跟位置、方向、移動、或時間有關。
我們以句子的主詞 The dog (狗),動詞 leaped (跳),和受詞 the car (車子)為例,來說明如何引用適當的介系詞來表示受詞「車子」與動詞「跳」的各種不同移動「方向」的關係: 跳(到、離、進、出、向)車子。
主詞 | 動詞 | 介系詞 | 受詞 | 關係 |
The dog | leaped | onto off into out of toward | the car. | 跳到車上 跳離車子 跳進車內 跳出車外 跳向車子 |
上面例句若把動詞 leaped 改為 slept (睡),使用適當的介系詞可以表示受詞「車子」與動詞「睡」的各種不同「位置」的關係: 睡在車(前、後、旁、...)。
主詞 | 動詞 | 介系詞 | 受詞 | 關係 |
The dog | slept | in front of behind by beside outside of under underneath in on on top of near far from
| the car. | 睡在車前 在車後 在車旁 在車邊 在車外 在車下 在車底 在車內 在車上 在車頂 靠近車子 遠離車子 |
註: by the car = beside the car; under the car = underneath the car; on the car = on top of the car。
behind, in front of, beside
Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
不要走在我後面;我不見得會引導。不要走在我前面;我可能不會跟隨。只要走在我身邊,成為我的朋友。
除了上面表示方向、位置的關係外,還有表示時間(如:at night, on Sunday, in June, during the day, since 1984, after lunch, by tomorrow noon, till midnight, from 9 to 5, for three years)、地方 (如:at the airport, in Taiwan)、比較(如:looks like his father, as a young lady) 、交通工具(如:by bus, by train, on foot)、目的、代理、手段、...等各種不同關係。
