用法讲解
adj. (形容词)
- latter, late
-
- 这两个词的共同意思是“较晚的”“较后的”。其区别是:
- 1.late指在一个具体时间之后;而latter指一段时间或一个时期的“后一半的”“接近终了的”,还可以指在时间或顺序上的“后者的”“近来的”。例如:
- She returned in the late afternoon.她下午很晚才返回来。
- He mentioned it in the latter part of his speech.他在演讲的后面提到了它。
- 2.late只能用于时间;latter则除了可以用于时间外,还可以用于顺序。例如:
- The train was ten minutes late.那趟火车晚了10分钟。
- Of the pig and the cow, the latter is more valuable.猪和牛相比,后者更有价值。
- 3.latter只能用于名词之前作定语,而late还可用作表语。
- later,latter
-
- 这两个字仅差一字之微,词义和使用场合却大相径庭,读音也不一样。
- later是形容词late的比较形式,表示时间的先后,意为“较后的”、“较新的”,它能作形容词,也能作副词。
- latter表示事物的先后,意为“后者“,只能作形容词,不能作副词。
