词组 therefore
释义 therefore
thereforeadv. [′ðeǝfɔː]
双解释义
1. 因此,为此,所以  as a result; for that reason; so
2. 故…,由此得出  as this proves; it follows that
基本要点
1. therefore的意思是“因此,为此,所以”,是副词,引导结果、结局或结论,不能误作连词用。
2. therefore可引出一个独立句,但不能连接两个句子,因此当therefore前没有and等连词时,前面须用分号。
3. 连接副词therefore用于句首时后面无需逗号,若位于句中前面可加也可不加逗号。
4. therefore也可用于推理,作“故…,由此得出”解。
