Adverbs of Time

時間副詞

An adverb of time provides more information about when a verb takes place. Adverbs of time are usually placed at the beginning or end of a sentence. When it is of particular importance to express the moment something happened we’ll put it at the start of a sentence.

時間副詞提供了更多關於動詞何時發生的信息。時間副詞通常放在句子的開頭或結尾。當表達某件事發生的時刻特別重要時，我們會把它放在句子的開頭。

Examples of adverbs of time: never, lately, just, always, recently, during, yet, soon, sometimes, usually, so far

時間副詞的例子：從不，最近，只是，總是，最近，在，然而，很快，有時，通常，到目前爲止

這裏沒有神奇寶貝，我們去別的地方看看。

Adverbs of Manner

方式狀語

Adverbs of manner provide more information about how a verb is done. Adverbs of manner are probably the most common of all adverbs. They’re easy to spot too. Most of them will end in –ly. Examples of adverbs of manner: neatly, slowly, quickly, sadly, calmly, politely, loudly, kindly, lazily

語氣副詞提供了更多關於動詞如何做的信息。語氣副詞可能是所有副詞中最常見的。它們也很容易被發現。他們中的大多數人最終都會死。語氣副詞的例子：整潔、緩慢、迅速、悲傷、平靜、禮貌、大聲、友善、懶惰

Conjunctive Adverb

連接性副詞

A conjunctive adverb is a type of adverb that joins two independent sentences or clauses of any kind. This type of adverb is used to connect two parts into one longer sentence. These parts can be whole sentences that need to be connected into one longer sentence or smaller clauses that need to be connected as well. Adverbs usually modify one verb, but conjunctive adverbs modify entire sentences because they connect larger parts than just one word. Conjunctive adverbs are used to join together parts in order to form a larger thought. This means that the final sentence explains more than the two smaller ones would if they were still divided.

連詞副詞是連接兩個獨立的句子或任何類型的從句的副詞。這類副詞用來把兩部分連成一個較長的句子。這些部分可以是需要連成一個較長句子的完整句子，也可以是需要連成一個較小句子的小句子。副詞通常修飾一個動詞，而連詞副詞修飾整個句子是因爲它們連接的部分比一個詞大。連詞副詞是用來連接各部分，以便形成一個更大的思想。這意味着，如果兩個較小的句子仍然是分開的，那麼最後一句解釋的就比這兩個小句子解釋的要多。

Conjunctive adverbs serve different functions, such as:

連詞副詞有不同的功能，例如：

addition, comparison, concession, contrast, emphasis, summarize, illustrate a point, or signify time.

添加、比較、讓步、對比、強調、總結、說明某一點或表示時間。

Conjunctive adverbs are used to connect ideas, and to form larger thoughts with longer sentences. These sentences are divided by a semicolon (;).

連詞副詞用來連接思想，並用較長的句子形成較大的思想。這些句子用分號（；）分隔。

Here are some notable examples:

以下是一些值得注意的例子：

I wanted to go have ice cream after work; however, my friend wanted something else.

下班後我想去吃冰激凌，但是我的朋友想要別的東西。

He had studies all day and night; nevertheless, it wasn’t enough to pass the test.

他整日整夜地學習，然而，這還不足以通過考試。

It was never going to work between us; therefore, we decided to go our separate ways.

這在我們之間是行不通的，因此，我們決定分道揚鑣。

I had to work the whole weekend; in addition, there was also another contract from a month ago I had to deal with.

我整個週末都要工作；此外，還有一份一個月前的合同要處理。

If you decide to start a diet you will see the improvement in your life soon; for instance, you’ll have more energy during the day.

如果你決定開始節食，你很快就會看到生活的改善；例如，白天你會有更多的精力。

She was driving home from her friend’s place; meanwhile, her husband was busy preparing her a surprise.

她正從朋友家開車回家；與此同時，她丈夫正忙着給她準備一個驚喜。

Adverb Clause

副詞從句

Usually, an adverb is just one word which modifies or describes, a verb. An adverb clause, on the other hand, is an entire clause which functions as an adverb. This clause is a group of words, or an entire sentence, which modifies a verb. One adverb adds some detail to the verb. An adverb clause adds more detail to the verb and describes precisely. An adverb clause can answer questions like:

副詞通常只是修飾或描述動詞的一個詞。另一方面，副詞從句又是一個充當副詞的完整從句。這個從句是一組詞或一整句話，用來修飾動詞。一個副詞給動詞增加了一些細節。副詞從句給動詞增加了更多的細節，並且描述得很精確。副詞從句可以回答如下問題：

How? What? When? Where? How much? And others.

怎樣？什麼？什麼時候？哪裏？多少錢？還有其他。

Like any clause, an adverb clause has to have a subject and predicate in order to be complete. An adverb clause can appear in the beginning, middle, or end of the sentence. The adverb clause is always divided by a comma if it’s in the beginning or middle of the sentence.

與任何從句一樣，副詞從句必須有主語和謂語才能完整。副詞從句可以出現在句子的開頭、中間或結尾。副詞從句如果在句首或句中，總是用逗號分隔。

Since I work from home, I don’t have to eat in restaurants often.

因爲我在家工作，所以不必經常去餐館吃飯。

The adverb phrase is in the first sentence. The subject is “I” and the predicate “work,” so the clause is complete. This adverb clause answers the question: where?

副詞短語在第一句中。主語是“I”，謂語是“work”，所以從句是完整的。這個副詞從句回答了一個問題：在哪裏？

Whether you like it or not, you have to pay taxes.

不管你喜不喜歡，你都得交稅。

Here the subject is “you” and the predicate is “like it or not.” There are different ways to form an adverb clause. This adverb clause answers the questions: how? and why?

這裏的主語是“你”，謂語是“喜不喜歡”。副詞從句的構成方式有很多種。這個副詞從句回答的問題是：怎麼做？爲什麼呢？

Whales, although they are large, don’t eat anything but plankton.

鯨魚雖然很大，但只吃浮游生物。

This adverb phrase is in the middle of the sentence, and it’s divided by commas. The subject is “they” and the predicate is “are large.” This adverb clause answers the question: how? (big are they / do they look)

這個副詞短語在句子的中間，用逗號隔開。主語是“他們”，謂語是“很大”，這個副詞從句回答了一個問題：怎麼做？（他們看起來很大嗎）

Because he missed the first bus he ran like his life depended on it.

因爲他錯過了第一班車，所以他跑得像命懸一線似的。

Since the adverb phrase is at the end of the sentence is does not always need to be divided with a comma. The subject is “he” and the predicate “ran.” This adverb clause answers the questions: how? and why?

因爲副詞短語是在句子的末尾，所以不一定要用逗號分隔。主語是“他”，謂語是“然”，這個副詞從句回答的問題是：怎麼做？爲什麼呢？

I’m going to look for a new job when I get back from my trip.

我旅行回來後要找一份新工作。

Here the subject is “I” and the predicate is “get back.” This adverb clause answers the question: when?

這裏的主語是“I”，謂語是“get back”。這個副詞從句回答了這個問題：什麼時候？

Adverb Phrase

副詞短語

An adverb phrase is a group of words that function as an adverb. Unlike the adverb clause, an adverb phrase does not need a subject and predicate. An adverb phrase is two or more words that modify the verb. Adverb phrases are used to describe the verb in more detail than just one adverb would. Since they are composed of more than one word they can answer a different set of questions. Adverb phrases often answer the questions:

副詞短語是一組起副詞作用的詞。與副詞從句不同，副詞短語不需要主語和謂語。副詞短語是修飾動詞的兩個或多個詞。副詞短語比一個副詞更詳細地描述動詞。因爲它們由多個單詞組成，所以它們可以回答一組不同的問題。副詞短語通常回答下列問題：

How? Where? Why? and When?

怎樣？哪裏？爲什麼？什麼時候？

These questions need more than one adverb to be answered completely. An adverb phrase can appear anywhere in the sentence, and they don’t need to be divided by commas.

這些問題需要不止一個副詞才能完全回答。副詞短語可以出現在句子的任何地方，不需要用逗號分隔。

They are, however, mostly at the end of the sentence, and sometimes the beginning.

然而，它們大多在句子的結尾，有時是開頭。

Because the boss is late the meeting will start later than usual.

因爲老闆遲到了，會議將比平時開始得晚。

This adverb phrase is used to answer the question: when? It is at the end of the sentence and gives more details about why the meeting is not happening when it usually does.

這個副詞用來回答這個問題：什麼時候？它在句子的末尾，給出了會議通常不舉行的原因的更多細節。

Like in every fairy tale they must kiss before sunset to break the curse.

就像在每一個童話故事中，他們必須在日落前親吻來打破詛咒。

This adverb phrase also answers the question: when? Here it describes the exact time when something must happen.

這個副詞短語也回答了這個問題：什麼時候？在這裏它描述了必須發生某事的確切時間。

Put the flowers on the kitchen table.

把花放在廚房的桌子上。

This adverb phrase answers the question: where? The person speaking wants the flowers to be put at a specific place.

這個副詞短語回答了一個問題：在哪裏？說話的人想把花放在一個特定的地方。

This adverb phrase answered the question: how? It describes how slow the cars were going, and how the person feels about it. They are frustrated because of how slow they are going.

這個副詞短語回答了一個問題：怎麼做？它描述了汽車行駛的速度，以及人們的感受。他們因進展緩慢而沮喪。

答案是：怎麼做？它描述了一個人完成任務時的粗心。

爲了更好地理解如何做這項工作，她讀了一些書。

Undertone: refers to a feeling or quality that is underneath the surface. For example a family may seem happy and perfect, but you can tell that there’s something negative or unhappy underneath the surface that they don’t talk about publicly. That negative covert feeling is an undertone.

弦外之音：指在表面之下的感覺或品質。例如，一個家庭可能看起來很幸福和完美，但你可以看出，在表面之下有些消極或不快樂的東西，他們不會公開談論。那種消極的隱祕感覺是一種弦外之音。

Even Though she was always smiling, there was a sad undertone, and you could tell she missed her sister./Despite all of the arguing there was a clear undertone of love between the couple.

儘管她總是微笑，但還是有一種悲傷的語氣，你可以看出她想念她的妹妹。/儘管爭吵不休，這對夫婦之間還是有一種明顯的愛的語氣。

An undertone can also be a muted or quiet sound or color. As a sound it could be murmuring or whispers. As a color, an undertone is simply a non bright or vibrant color.

undertone也可以是指低聲或靜音的聲音或顏色。作爲一種聲音，它可以是低語或低語。作爲一種顏色，底色只是一種不明亮或充滿活力的顏色。

When he walked into the room, he could hear the other students talking in undertones./I don’t want the color to be too bright, maybe a pink undertone.

當他走進教室時，他能聽到其他學生在低聲說話。/我不想顏色太亮，也許是粉紅色的底色。

Foresight: refers to the ability to predict or anticipate the future. Foresight does not refer to being psychic or making psychic predictions. It refers to someone being able to anticipate someone’s needs or something that’s going to happen based on research or preparation. For example an assistant that can predict his or her boss’ needs has foresight.

遠見：指預測或預測未來的能力。遠見卓識不是指通靈或作出通靈預測。它指的是某人能夠根據研究或準備預測某人的需要或將要發生的事情。例如，一個能預測老闆需求的助手就有遠見。

Part of what makes her so great at her job is her foresight./A good CEO must have foresight, especially during turbulent times.

使她在工作中如此出色的部分原因是她的遠見。/一個好的首席執行官必須有遠見，尤其是在動盪時期。

超載：指某人或某個組織被壓得喘不過氣來，或有太多的事情要做，而這正成爲一種負擔。它可以指精神負擔，也可以指身體太重。

He felt overloaded by all of the work that he had to get done by Friday./The truck was overloaded and the trucker had to remove some of his cargo in order to meet the weight limits requirement.

他覺得星期五之前要完成的所有工作都讓他超負荷了。/卡車超載了，卡車司機不得不卸下一些貨物，以滿足重量限制的要求。

Outpatient: is a medical patient that is not treated in a hospital, but at their home or at a different facility. Sometimes a patient will have a procedure and then will be sent home to recover. The doctor will still check to see that their recovery is going as scheduled, or they may be visited by a nurse, but they will not have to stay overnight at the hospital. This is an outpatient.

門診病人：不在醫院接受治療，而是在家裏或其他機構接受治療的醫療病人。有時病人會做手術，然後被送回家康復。醫生仍然會檢查他們的恢復是否如期進行，或者他們可能會被護士看望，但他們不必在醫院過夜。這是門診部。

After surgery, you will spend 2 days in the hospital and if everything goes well, you will be treated as an outpatient./Having the care of a nurse allows him to be able to be cared for as an outpatient.

手術後，你將在醫院呆兩天，如果一切順利，你將被作爲門診病人治療。/有護士的照顧，他可以作爲門診病人來照顧。

Adverb Placement

地點副詞

Using adverbs in a sentence is quite flexible, still it is not entirely our choice where we place them; there are some general rules that we should follow.

在句子中使用副詞是很靈活的，但我們把它們放在哪裏並不完全是我們的選擇；還有一些我們應該遵循的一般規則。

For example, adverbs are not usually put between a verb and its object. The typical word order is this:

例如，副詞通常不放在動詞和賓語之間。典型的詞序是：

adverb + verb + object: We often visit museums.

副詞+動詞+賓語：我們經常參觀博物館。

verb + object + adverb: She speaks English well.

動詞+賓語+副詞：她英語說得很好。

In the verb + preposition + object structure the adverb can go either before the preposition or after the object:

在動詞+介詞+賓語結構中，副詞可以在介詞之前或賓語之後：

She looked at me suspiciously./She looked suspiciously at me.

她懷疑地看着我。/她懷疑地看着我。

But if the object contains several words, the adverb goes before the preposition:

但如果賓語包含幾個詞，副詞在介詞之前：

She looked suspiciously at everybody in the room.

她懷疑地看着房間裏的每個人。

Connecting adverbs (which join clauses, e.g. then, next, besides, still, anyway, suddenly, however, consequently) and comment adverbs (e.g. fortunately, surprisingly) can go in front position:

連接副詞（連接從句，例如then，next，adde，still，anyway，summent，however，resulture）和註釋副詞（例如幸運的是，出人意料的是）可以放在前面：

However, the plan wasn’t fully discussed./He worked until six o’clock. Then he left the office./Next, I’m going to speak about the advantages of the plan./Suddenly there was a loud noise./Fortunately, we could take a bus to the village.

然而，這個計劃沒有得到充分討論。/他一直工作到六點鐘。然後他離開了辦公室。/接下來，我要談談這個計劃的好處。/突然有一聲巨響。/幸運的是，我們可以坐公共汽車去村子。

Adverbs of indefinite frequency (e.g. always, often, usually, rarely, sometimes, never, normally, generally, occasionally) and adverbs of certainty (e.g. surely, definitely, certainly, probably, perhaps) usually go in mid-position:

頻率不定的副詞（例如總是，經常，通常，很少，有時，從不，通常，一般，偶爾）和確定副詞（例如肯定，肯定，肯定，可能，也許）通常處於中間位置：

My father often travels to France./We rarely go out on Mondays./Her brother has never flown an airplane./I’ve definitely decided to leave this town./She will probably be absent at the meeting./The party has obviously been cancelled.

我父親經常去法國旅行。/我們很少在星期一出去。/她哥哥從來沒有坐過飛機。/我已經決定離開這個鎮。/她可能會缺席會議。/聚會顯然取消了。

Adverbs of indefinite frequency can also go in end position if they are the main focus of the message (but mid-position is more typical):

頻率不定的副詞如果是信息的主要焦點，也可以在結尾位置（但中間位置更典型）：

We see our cousins quite often./She is very nervous sometimes./They eat out occasionally.

我們經常見到我們的表親。/她有時很緊張。/他們偶爾出去吃飯。

Adverbs of certainty like maybe and perhaps typically take front position:

確定性副詞，例如may，也許，通常放在前面：

Perhaps they can’t find the way to the village./Maybe you’re right, or maybe not.

也許他們找不到去村子的路。/也許你是對的，也許不是。

Adverbs of manner (saying how the action happens), place (where) and time (when) most often go in end position:

方式副詞（表示動作如何發生）、地點（地點）和時間（時間）最常出現在結束位置：

The secretary read the letter slowly./He answered all the questions correctly./My sister is sleeping in her room upstairs./Did you phone her last night?/We arrived at the station at ten.

祕書慢慢地讀了信。/他答對了所有的問題。/我妹妹睡在樓上的房間裏。/你昨晚給她打電話了嗎？/我們十點鐘到達車站。

Time adverbs (especially the ones that are frequently used like tomorrow, yesterday, this month, every week, soon, etc.) can also go in front position, especially if the adverb is not the main focus of the sentence:

時間副詞（特別是常用的如明天、昨天、本月、每週、不久等）也可以放在前面，特別是副詞不是句子的主要焦點時：

Tomorrow we’ve got a meeting with the general manager./This week I’m staying with my uncle in the country./Soon you’ll see a church, take the second street behind it.

明天我們要和總經理開會。/這周我要和我叔叔住在鄉下。/很快你就會看到一個教堂，走它後面的第二條街。

Place adverbs most often go in end position, but front position is also possible (though not very typical):

位置副詞最常出現在結尾位置，但也可能出現在前面位置（雖然不是很典型）：

At the end of the corridor there was a staircase./In this town they don’t have too many restaurants./Here we can stop.

在走廊的盡頭有一個樓梯。/在這個鎮上，他們沒有太多的餐館。/在這裏我們可以停下來。

Adverbs in -ly can also go in mid-position:

ly副詞也可以位於中間位置：

The train slowly crossed the bridge./He angrily shouted at the doorman./ They will possibly be late for the party./She suddenly ran out of the room./Would you kindly wait?

火車慢慢地過了橋。/他憤怒地對門衛喊道。/他們可能要遲到了。/她突然跑出房間。/你能等一下嗎？

Emphasizing adverbs (e.g. very, extremely, terribly, just, almost, really, right) go directly before the words that they emphasise:[/en

強調副詞（例如非常、非常、非常、非常、非常、非常、幾乎、非常、正確）直接出現在強調的詞之前：

[en]I knew she played the piano very well./We were extremely annoyed with his manners./I’m terribly sorry about last night./Let’s meet in front of the cinema just before seven./He kicked the ball almost over the building./I’m really sleepy now./The police officer walked right past us.

我知道她彈鋼琴彈得很好。/我們對他的舉止非常惱火。/我對昨晚的事感到非常抱歉。/我們七點前在電影院前碰頭。/他把球踢過了大樓。/我現在真的很困。/警察從我們身邊走過。

Please note that certain adverbs used at different places of the sentence can substantially change the meaning:

請注意，在句子的不同位置使用的某些副詞會實質性地改變句子的意義：

Only I have fish and chips; nobody else has it./I only have fish and chips; I don’t have a drink./I have only fish and chips; I don’t have anything else./I have fish and chips only; I don’t have rice and peas.

只有我有魚和薯條，其他人沒有。/我只有魚和薯條，我沒有飲料。/我只有魚和薯條，我沒有其他東西。/我只有魚和薯條，我沒有米飯和豌豆。

In general, if there are more than one possibilities of placing an adverb in a sentence, you should always be aware of the possible changes in meaning:

一般來說，如果一個句子中有多個副詞的可能性，你應該時刻注意可能的意義變化：

They secretly decided to leave the town. – Their decision was secret./They decided to leave the town secretly. – Their departure was to be secret.

他們祕密地決定離開這個城鎮。–他們的決定是祕密的。/他們決定祕密離開小鎮。他們的離開是祕密的。

Where is the position of an adverb in question form and in negative form?

副詞在疑問句和否定句中的位置在哪裏？

I don’t clear the position of adverb of frequency-place in a sentence. I only know form

我不清楚頻率副詞在句子中的位置。我只知道形式

Subject +adverb + verb +object

主語+副詞+動詞+賓語

Ex: I always get up late.

例：我總是起得很晚。

Subject + verbe+ adverb +object

主語+動詞+副詞+賓語

Ex: He is usually happy.

他通常很快樂。

But, I don’t clear the place adverb. Where is the position of an adverb. In question form and In negative form.

但是，我不清楚這個地方副詞。副詞的位置在哪裏。在疑問句和否定句中。

So, you go it write in positive sentences! Well done!

所以，你要用積極的句子去寫！做得好！

Now, let’s take a look at negative and questions:

現在，讓我們來看看負面因素和問題：

I don’t always get up late. He isn’t usually happy.

我不總是起得很晚。他通常不快樂。

So, as you can see, in the negative sentences the adverb of frequency comes right after the negative part (don’t/doesn’t/isn’t/aren’t)

所以，正如你所看到的，在否定句中，頻率副詞緊跟在否定部分之後（不要/不要/不是/不是/不是）

Now, questions:

現在，疑問句：

Do you always get up late? Is he usually happy?

你總是起得很晚嗎？他通常快樂嗎？

After the subject in questions

在問句中，在主語之後

I hope it’s clear now.

我希望現在一切都清楚了。

Is Correctly an adverb of manner?

是一個正確的方式副詞嗎？

An adverb of manner is an adverb, or a modifier of a verb, that tells us how something is done.

態度副詞是一個副詞，或動詞的修飾語，它告訴我們事情是如何做的。

Common adverbs of manner are well, badly, gently, silly, and friendly.

常用的語氣副詞是好的，壞的，溫和的，愚蠢的，友好的。

Because correctly describes the way that some action is completed, it can be an adverb of manner.

因爲正確地描述了某個動作完成的方式，所以它可以是方式副詞。

For example, in this sentence:

例如，在這句話中：

She correctly guessed that the interviewer was trying to test her.

她猜對了面試官是想測試她。

In this case, correctly describes the way that the subject of the sentence guessed.

在這種情況下，正確描述句子的主語猜測的方式。
