用法辨析
- proper的基本意思是“適當(dāng)?shù)?恰當(dāng)?shù)摹?指事物合乎邏輯、慣例或情理; 也可指“正當(dāng)?shù)?正常的,正確的”, proper作此解時(shí)沒(méi)有比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)。作“嚴(yán)格意義的,本身的”“真正的”解時(shí),置于所修飾的名詞之后。
- proper也可以表示“特有的”“固有的”“專(zhuān)門(mén)的”“獨(dú)特的”,是正式用語(yǔ),其后常接介詞to引起的短語(yǔ),作表語(yǔ)或后置定語(yǔ)。
- proper還可表示“合乎體統(tǒng)的,正經(jīng)的,高尚的”,多用于修飾人。
- proper還可表示“本身的”和“嚴(yán)格意義上的”“真正的”,在句中作后置定語(yǔ)。
- proper在口語(yǔ)中還可用來(lái)加強(qiáng)語(yǔ)氣,表示“完全的”“徹底的”,常用在貶義詞或不愉快意義的名詞前。proper用于此意時(shí),沒(méi)有比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)。
- proper可表示為“……的本身”,作后置定語(yǔ),用于名詞后。例如Greece proper(希臘國(guó)的本部)和the Dictionary proper(本詞典正文);
- proper也可作前置定語(yǔ),表示“真正的,實(shí)在的”。It is a proper mountain, not a hill. 這是座真正的山,不是丘陵。
