英文疑难详解 158.美国语中 the way 的用法
1704794850
1704794851
美国话中常见有 the way 的用法,例如: It was pitiful the way he kept complaining to his wife. 不知应如何译法?
1704794852
1704794853
【解答】way 的意义由“道路”引申而为“方法”,如:
1704794854
1704794855
the way she spoke hurt me.(她说话的方式伤害了我。)
1704794856
1704794857
the way I know.(用我所知道的方法。)
1704794858
1704794859
在 the way 之前省略了一个 in 字。在美国口语里说的 the way 多少受了一些爱尔兰语的影响,所以跟英文原来的用法又有些不同了。美国话用 the way 来引导出一个副词子句时,便有 as(有如)或 according as(依照)的意思,例如:
1704794860
1704794861
I don’t see how he can act the way he does.(我不懂得他怎样能够那样做的。)(the way=as)
1704794862
1704794863
It was fated I should meet you the way I did this evening.—— A. Christie Poirot Investigates(像今晚这样我和你的相遇,都是命中注定的呀。)(the way=as)
1704794864
1704794865
I been thinking about them for years, the way a kid thinks of vocation.—— Long Valley(我对于那些东西,像小孩子想望假期一样想望了好多年了。)(the way=as)
1704794866
1704794867
此外 the way 还可以作 how(怎样),how much(多么),since(因为)等等意思来用,例如:
1704794868
1704794869
The way you pronounced her name. And the way you looked.—— Love Letters(你怎样叫她的名字的,以及你那一副眼色。)(the way=how)
1704794870
1704794871
质问中的句子亦复如此: It was pitiful the way he kept complaining to his wife.(可怜他不断地向他太太抱怨。)(the way=how)
1704794872
1704794873
And the way she walks. The way she fancies herself.—— H. E. Bates: The Enchantress(以及她走路的样子。她自命不凡的样子。)(the way=how)
1704794874
1704794875
No one…can understand the way I miss Dave.—— F. Baldwin: A Time to Mourn(谁也不知道我是多么地想念黛佛的呀。)(the way=how much)
1704794876
1704794877

1704794878
1704794879

1704794880
1704794881

1704794884
1704794885
再如:
1704794886
1704794887
It’s a sin the way he keeps on doing it.—— E. Caldwell: Big Buck(他不停地这样搞真是罪过。)(用 the way 引导出一个以 it 作为形式主语的真正主语的名词子句。)
