Anymore 和 any more 只差一个空格,它们形相似但不能完全通用,其结果是一个空格带来不同的使命。造成不能通用的一个最根本的原因是 anymore 是副词,而 any more 除了作副词之外,还可以作限定词,这是最主要的区别。
Anymore 是副词,因此它的任务是修饰动词、形容词或其他的副词,它表示的是时间,意为”(不)再,再也(不)“,常用于否定句中,例如:We don’t go to Florida anymore during Spring Break.I don’t really like that game anymore.He doesn’t like to skydive anymore.I don’t drive in the city anymore.My mom doesn’t like to crochet anymore.虽然不常见或是被认为不合理的用法,但有的时候 anymore 可以代替 nowadays,例如:The price of bottled water is expensive anymore.
二、any more
1. 作限定词或代词,表明了一个不确定的或多或少数量,但不管是什么情况,any more 是表示想要的东西的数量,意为”还有…“,类似于 some more,常用于否定句、疑问句、条件句或含有hardly,never 或 scarely 等否定词的句子中,例如:
Do you have any more cereal?
还有麦片吗?
Would they be prepared to offer any more?I don’t want to hear any more of your lies.We do not have any more information at the present time.If you find any more books, please let us know.If you need any more clothes, we can get them.There are hardly any more people here than last month.We had hardly any more to eat for days on end.2. 作副词,在美式英语中,常被用作一个单词 anymore,常用于否定句或疑问句句末,意为”(不)再,再也(不)“,例如:We don’t go to Cornwall on holiday any more.The cost of electricity is not cheap any more.She doesn't live here any more.Why doesn't he speak to me any more?
Anymore 和 any more 作副词时是一个意思,其中 anymore 更多地用于美式英语;Any more 还可以作限定词,表示数量,而 anymore 只能作副词。1. crochet [ˈkrəʊʃeɪ] 意为”钩针编织“2. for days on end 意为”接连数日“
