词汇搭配
later的详细讲解:
词语用法
- later是副词,意思是“较晚地”“后来”,常用于书面语中。
- later常与一个表示具体时间的名词连用,指从过去或将来某一时间算起的“…后”“…之后”“过了…”。如果单独使用,即其前不加“若干时间”,则可以用来表示“从现在算起以后”。
- later无比较级和最高级形式。
词义辨析
- later, afterwards
-
- 这两个词在表示“一段时间后”(at a later time)时可通用,但在与一段具体的时间连用时只用later,不用afterwards。例如:不能说He fell ill on Monday and died three days afterwards.而应说He fell ill on Monday and died three days later.他星期一患病,三天后就死了。
- afterward(s),later
-
- 这两个副词均有“后来,以后”之意。
- afterward(s)指一整段时间之后,一般不分具体时间,强调事物的先后顺序。
- later常指一个具体的时间点之后,侧重“迟、推迟”。
- 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。
常见错误
-
片刻〔相当一段时间〕以后
误 a just〔soon,shortly〕 later
正 a little〔much〕 later
析 later不可用just, soon, shortly, immediately等词修饰,但可用little或much等来修饰。
我将在一周之后再给你打电话。误 I'll call again a week later.
正 I'll call again in a week.
一年之后,他作为一个英雄回来了。误 He came back as a hero in a year.
正 He came back as a hero a year later.
析 later不可用于说明“从说话时算起若干时间之后”,应该用in a year, in a week等,只有在指“从过去或将来某一时刻算起若干时间以后”时才可用later。
她一定是个55岁以上的女人。误 She must be a woman in her later fifties.
正 She must be a woman in her late fifties.
析 表示“55岁以上接近60岁”用in one's late fifties,而不用later。
