內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介

英語(yǔ)中表示人、事物、地點(diǎn)、時(shí)間的疑問(wèn)詞可以和單詞 “ever” 搭配，組成新詞，引導(dǎo)讓步狀語(yǔ)從句。比如，“what + ever” 組成 “whatever（不管怎樣，無(wú)論什么）”；“where + ever” 組成 “wherever（無(wú)論在哪里，無(wú)論什么地方）”。這類(lèi)詞語(yǔ)之間的共通之處是什么？看視頻，快速了解這些詞的正確用法。

文字稿

Hi, everyone. I’m Saskia and in this episode, we’re going to look at what it means when we add the word ‘ever’ to the end of a question word.

The most important thing to know is that when we add ‘ever’ to a question word, it is not talking about anything specific. It often means we don’t know the ‘who’ or the ‘where’, or they are not important.

Let’s look at some examples:

“Whoever ate my cake is in big trouble!” This example means that I do not know who ate my cake.

“Whenever I go to the café, there are never any sandwiches left!” This means the time when I go to the café is not important.

“I never put on weight, so I can eat whatever I like.” This means what I eat isn’t important.

“The puppy followed the girl wherever she went.” By adding ‘ever’ to ‘where’, it means the place is not important.

So, if you want to say that the time, place, person or thing you’re talking about is not important or unknown, just add ‘ever’ to the correct question word.

用法總結(jié)

1. "Whoever" 指 “…那個(gè)人，無(wú)論什么人”。

• Whenever I go to the café, there are never any sandwiches left!
  無(wú)論我什么時(shí)候去咖啡館，三明治總是都賣(mài)光了！

3. "Whatever" 指 “無(wú)論什么，不管怎樣”。

• I never put on weight, so I can eat whatever I like.
  我從來(lái)都長(zhǎng)不胖，所以我可以想吃什么就吃什么。

4. "Wherever" 指 “無(wú)論在哪里，無(wú)論什么地方”。 

• The puppy followed the girl wherever she went.
  無(wú)論女孩走到哪里，小狗都跟著她。
