如题所述
您好,介词在英语中的确是较为复杂的,还称为小品词。您提到的 in for off by 除了可以作为介词以外,还有很多其他的用途,比如:
1)in 可以作为(副词)构成(动词词组),比如:
He came in.(这里的 in 是副词,不是介词;和 go out 是对立的。)
He went out. / He went out of the room.(out 是副词,在这里不是介词。)
in 还可以作为(形容词),比如:
We knocked at the door, but there was no one in.(在家里的)
Pastels and light colours are in this year.(时髦的)
2)for 除了作为介词,还是并列连词连接两个对等的句子,通常表示原因,比如:
He felt guilty, for he didn't tell the truth.(因为)
3)off 和 in 一样,也可以作为(副词)使用,构成(动词词组),比如:
The man ran off.(跑掉)
Take a day off.(休假)
Turn off the light.(关……)
off 还可以作为(形容词)使用,比如:
We have 5 off days during the the National Holiday.(。。不上班的。。)
off 还可以作为(名词)使用,比如:
I will see my children during my off on Sunday afternoons.(。。休息的时候。。)
off 最后还可以作为(动词)使用,比如:
She might off a cop, but she wouldn't shoot her boyfriend.(。。杀死。。。)
4)by 也可以作为(副词)使用,比如:
A car flashed by on the other side of the road.(。。飞驰而过。。。)
He let only a moment go by.(他只休息了片刻)
