I.e.和e.g.究竟啥意思

推薦人: 來源: 閱讀: 2.91W 次

I.e. and e.g. are both abbreviations for Latin terms. I.e. stands for id est and means roughly "that is." E.g. stands for exempli gratia, which means “for example.” "Great. Latin," you're probably thinking. "How am I supposed to remember that?”

I.e.和e.g.都是拉丁語縮寫,i.e.代表id est,意爲“也就是說,即”(that is),e.g.代表exempli gratia,意思是“舉個例子”(for example)。你可能在想,“很好,拉丁語,可我怎麼記得住啊?”

Forget about i.e. standing for "that is" or whatever it really means in Latin. From now on, i.e., which starts with i, means “in other words,” and e.g., which starts with e, means “for example.” I = in other words. E= example.

不要去管i.e.的意思或者它的拉丁文全拼。從現在開始,i打頭的i.e.代表in other words(也就是說),而e打頭的e.g.代表for example(舉例說明)。字母I= in other words,字母E= example。

Don't italicize i.e. and e.g.; even though they are abbreviations for Latin words, they've been used for so long that they're considered a standard part of the English language.

I.e.和e.g.不用斜體。雖然二者都是拉丁文縮寫,但這種用法由來已久,已被視爲英語中的一種標準用法。

Also, remember that they are abbreviations, so there is always a period after each letter.

另外,記住i.e.和e.g.都是縮寫,所以每個字母后面都有點號。

I.e.和e.g.究竟啥意思

A comma is usually used after i.e. and e.g.

I.e.和e.g.後面通常要加逗號。

1. The evaluation noted that the employee had frequently exhibited irresponsible behavior (e.g., coming to work late, failing to complete projects).

評估報告指出,在僱員中存在許多不當行爲(比如遲到,完不成工作)。

2. Writing instructors focus on a number of complex skills that require extensive practice (e.g., organization, clear expression, logical thinking).

寫作教師強調那些需要大量練習的複雜技巧(比如結構,清晰的表達和邏輯性)。

3. The general rule is that if a number can be expressed in three words or fewer, it should be written out (e.g., two hundred seventy).

一般來說,如果一個數字能夠用三個或三個以下單詞表達出來,那麼就應該將其拼寫出來(比如two hundred seventy) 。

4. Use a comma to enclose (i.e., both before and after) the year in a month-day-year sequence.

“月-日-年”這樣表達日期的形式,“年”應該用逗號分隔出來(即在其前後都使用逗號)。
