later     

【问】 (1) We are eating later today.(CGEL)

‘Later’,the lieutenant said. (Hemingway)

(3) He handed in his resignation,and later (on) regretted his hasty action.(CGEL)

请问上面各句中的later是否都是late的比较级形式?它们的词义有无区别?

【答】 句(1)中的later是副词late(迟,晚)的比较级形式,其词义为“晚一些”、“迟一些”、“较迟”、“较晚”。而句(2)、(3)、(4)中的later是独立的语义单位,其词义相当于after(that),af-terwards,句(2)中的later可以译为“过一会儿”、“待会儿再说”,句(3)中的later可以译为“后来”,句(4)中的later可以译为“过了一会儿”。
