词组 | who |
释义 | 1.不论用作疑问代词或关系代词,who 属于主格,whom 属于宾格。例如: Who said so? I do not know who said so. Whom did you see? I do not know whom you saw. The man who called this morning is my cousin. The man whom you saw this morning is my cousin. 下面几点该注意: (1)在口语里用疑问代词时通常用 who,不用 whom。例如: Who did you see? I do not know who you saw. 下面每组里的第一句最自然,第三句最不自然: 第三组里的 to 不可省去,参见 whom 3 (2)比较下面每组里的三个对话: 注意不可说Whom to? 或Whom with? (3)也有少数英美人把 who 用作属于宾格的关系代词,但不算正当,如不该说 The man who you saw this morning is my cousin,该把 who 改作 whom。 (4)The man whom you saw this morning is my cousin 里的 whom 用得不错,但除了在正式文字里以外通常省去。比较下面两句: The man (whom) you saw this morning is my cousin. Mr Lee, whom you saw this morning, is my cousin. 第二句里的 whom you saw this morning 是非限定从句,whom 不可省去。 (5)比较下面每组里的两句: 每组第一句里的 who 是 is 或 was 的主语,不是 believe 或 supposed 的宾语。believe 或 supposed 把从句( that) who is honest 或( that) who was dead 做宾语。不用 who 而用 whom 是英美人常有的错误。 2.在口语里,关系代词 who 往往省去。例如:There's somebody (who) wants to speak to you. 3.The ship has lost her rudder 里用 her。The ship, which is a small one, has lost her rudder 里也用 her,但不用 who 而用 which,参见 which 2 (4) 4.下面第一句、第二句和第三句都不错,第四句不对。参见 which 5 I found many children there, most of whom were boys. I found many children there; most of them were boys. I found many children there, most of them being boys. I found many children there, most of whom being boys. 注意第二句里用分号,第三句里用逗号。 5.关于关系代词 who 和关系代词 that 的区别,参见 that 9 6.疑问代词 who 不可作关系代词 who 或 whom 的先行项,下面两句都不对,该把 who 或 whom 改作 that: Who who has ever heard her sing does not admire her? Who whom you have ever heard sing sings better than Miss Drake? 7.关于 who 和 which 的不同,参见 which 2和13 8.下面两句意思相同,就是说“谁也不会曾经想到那个”。 Who would have thought of that? Who would have thought of that! |
