英文 as well as 怎麼用?你也許知道”as well as”這個片語,但你會正確地使用它嗎?很多人把它誤以為”and”的同義詞,但其實它表達的是”not only(不但) … but also(而且)”,在已知的事實外,添加更多資訊的意思。

讓 Let’s Talk 講師 Rachna 用以下英文範例,導正你了解 “as well as” 的正確用法。

 as well as 用法、文法與例句教學

下面教學 as well as 的五種用法,再加上範例解釋,看完這五個範例,基本上就可以完全了解 as well as 的正確用法了。

範例1: John, as well as Mary, wants to leave early.

意思:John 跟 Mary 都想早點離開。

在這個範例中,”as well as”用來表示不僅Mary,John也想要早點離開。因為”Mary” 是單數名詞,所以 as well as 後面的動詞會是”wants”,而非”want”。

範例2: Animals, as well as plants need water to survive.

意思:動物跟植物都需要水維持生命。

此範例中,”plants”則是複數名詞,所以 as well as 後面的動詞使用 “need”,而非 needs。

範例3: She is greedy as well as dishonest.

意思:她貪心而且不誠實。

這個句子表示她不但不誠實(dishonest),還很貪心(greedy)。

範例4-1:He hurt his arm as well as breaking his leg.

範例4-2: She draws as well as designing clothes.

範例4-1意思:他傷了手臂還撞斷了腿。
範例4-2意思:她不只畫圖,還設計衣服。

這兩個範例中,我們以”as well as”連接兩個動作,而接在”as well as”後的動作,請改為動名詞形式。切勿誤用為”He hurt his arm as well as broke his leg.”,或”She draws as well as designs clothes.”。

範例5: I have to clean the floors as well as cook food.

意思:我必須清理地板跟煮飯。

此句中使用了不定詞”to clean”,但接在”as well as”後的動作,請別也在前面加上”to”,而是直接使用原形動詞即可。別誤用為”I have to clean the floors as well as to cook food.” 。

上面就是 as well as 的完整用法啦,基本上不難懂,搞清楚 as well as 前面的主詞與動詞形式,通常就能知道是哪個句型了。
