怎么使用However

如果你不确定“however”的用法是否正确，那是因为它有很多使用方法。由于“however”的每种用法都有各自的标点符号，在句子中也有相应的位置，因此很容易混淆。不过一旦学会了这些区别，你就不太可能会忘记了。

步骤

用“However”来引出对比和矛盾

1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/b\/bd\/Use-However-Step-1.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-1.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/bd\/Use-However-Step-1.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 1 用“However”作为一个对比语句的开头。用“However，…”作为开头，引出一个与上一个句子矛盾或形成对比的句子，这样就会提醒读者即将迎来一个转变。在“However”后面一定要加逗号，然后跟上一个完整的句子。^[1]
   • 你可以这样写：“I was very excited to be invited to lunch. However, I had already made plans.（我很高兴能被邀请吃午饭。但是，我已经另有安排了。）”
   • 另一个例子是，“The pattern was certainly original. However, the new wallpaper did not match the furniture at all.（图案当然是原创的。但是，新墙纸和家具一点都不搭。）”
2. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/4\/41\/Use-However-Step-2.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-2.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/4\/41\/Use-However-Step-2.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 2 用“; however,”连接两个对比语句。当你有两个完整的句子相互对立或形成对比，但又紧密相连时，用分号、“however”和逗号将它们连接起来。这表明第二句话在某种程度上与第一句相反。^[2]
   • 从含义相反的两句话开始：“I would love to join you for lunch. I am too busy.（我愿意和你一起吃午饭。我太忙了。）”
   • 用这种方式连接这两句话：“I would love to join you for lunch; however, I am too busy.（我愿意和你一起吃午饭。但是，我太忙了。）”
   • 这样就会使句子之间的联系更加紧密，有助于使你的写作读起来更有聚合力。

   • 在第二句的主语后面加上“, however,”：“I can't make it to lunch. You, however, are going to love that restaurant.（我不能去吃午饭了。不过你会爱上这家餐厅的。）”
   • 使用它来分隔双动词：“I can't make it to lunch. I could, however, join you next week.（我不能去吃午饭了。不过我下周可以和你一起去。）”
   • 把它放在第二句的末尾：“I can't make it to lunch. I could join you next week, however.（我不能去吃午饭了。不过我下周可以和你一起去。）”

使用“However”作为关系副词

1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/9\/97\/Use-However-Step-4.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-4.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/9\/97\/Use-However-Step-4.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-4.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 1 用它来表示“无论如何”或“不管以何种方式”。当“however”是关系副词时，它被用来表达没有限制。它可以用来作为句子开头，或插入逗号后面的从属子句。^[4]
   • 你可以说，“However you look at it, we owe Puerto Rico significant aid.（不管你怎么看，我们应该感激波多黎各的鼎力相助。）”
   • 你也可以写，“I'll make it to lunch, however the day goes.（不管天气如何，我都会去吃午饭的。）”
   • 用“无论如何”或“不管以何种方式”来代替它，检查是否使用正确。
2. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/3\/37\/Use-However-Step-5.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-5.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/3\/37\/Use-However-Step-5.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-5.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 2 将它与形容词或副词搭配。当与形容词或副词连用时，“However”可以表示“到什么程度”。^[5]
   • 你也可以写，“I'll call you from Tokyo, however much it costs.（不管花多少钱，我都会从东京给你打电话的。）”
   • 另一个例子是，“However doomed the relationship, an open heart is its own reward.（不管这段关系注定如何，敞开心扉就是回报。）”
3. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/4\/46\/Use-However-Step-6.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-6.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/4\/46\/Use-However-Step-6.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-6.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 3 问句用“how ever”开头来表达惊讶。当你想对所描述的行为表示惊讶时，用“how ever”表示“不管以何种方式”。因为“ever”是加强语气的词，所以这两个词应该分开。^[6]
   • 你可以写，“How ever did you find my address?（你到底是怎么找到我的地址的？）”

检查常见错误

1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/1\/10\/Use-However-Step-7.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-7.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/1\/10\/Use-However-Step-7.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-7.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 1 确保分号和逗号位置正确。当你使用“however”作为连接副词时，记住分号在“however”前面，逗号在后面。记住，不能用两个逗号包含“however”。^[7]
   • 错误：“Yes, your new shoes do match your outfit, however; they aren't weather-appropriate.（是的，你的新鞋和你的衣服很搭。但是不合时节。）”
   • 错误：“Yes, your new shoes do match your outfit, however, they aren't weather-appropriate. （是的，你的新鞋和你的衣服很搭。但是不合时节。）”
   • 正确：“Yes, your new shoes do match your outfit; however, they aren't weather-appropriate. （是的，你的新鞋和你的衣服很搭。但是不合时节。）”
2. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/6\/68\/Use-However-Step-8.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-8.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/6\/68\/Use-However-Step-8.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-8.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 2 注意不完整句。当你以“However”开头时，很容易写出不完整句。如果一个句子以“However，…”开头，后面需要跟一个独立从句！检查所有包含“However”的句子，确保句子是完整的。^[8]
   • 错误：“However, the sky in April.（然而，四月的天空）”。这个句子没有动词，所以不完整。
   • 正确：“However, the sky in April was clouded.（然而，四月的天空乌云密布。）”这个句子有主语和动词，所以是完整的。
3. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/6\/66\/Use-However-Step-9.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-9.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/6\/66\/Use-However-Step-9.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-9.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 3 确保你说清楚想表达的内容。当使用“however”作为关系副词时，很多含义取决于语法。如果你忘记了一些标点符号，或者用在错误的地方，可能会造成言不达意。注意句子的意思是如何根据标点符号的位置而变化的：^[9]
   • “Carrots are naturally delicious however they have been cooked.（胡萝卜不管怎么做都是一道天然美味。）”
   • “Carrots are naturally delicious; however, they have been cooked.（胡萝卜是一道天然美味，但是，它们已经下锅了。）”
   • 如果你的意思是胡萝卜不管用什么做法都是美味的，那么第一种选择是正确的。
   • 如果你的意思是胡萝卜生吃很好，但烹饪了就不好吃，那么第二种选择是正确的。
4. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images_en\/thumb\/0\/07\/Use-However-Step-10.jpg\/v4-460px-Use-However-Step-10.jpg","bigUrl":"https:\/\/www.zenmeban.com\/images\/thumb\/0\/07\/Use-However-Step-10.jpg\/v4-728px-Use-However-Step-10.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><\/div>"} 4 不要过度使用“However”，尤其是在句子的开头。限制自己每页只用几次。如果你要用“However”作为句子开头，问问自己用分号和冒号把它和前面的句子连接起来是否更合理。使用不同的连接副词让文章的用词显得更加丰富和独特，例如：^[10]
   • Rather（而是）
   • Instead（反而）
   • Yet（但是）

小提示

• 关系副词通过修饰前面的词、短语或从句来引入从句。
• 加强词是一个副词，它可以加强语气，或起到强调作用。^[11]
