问题描述
汉语说的“我的每一句话”,说成英语是my every word还是every my word?my 与every的位置关系是哪个在前,哪个在后?
类似的还有:my every friend还是every my friend?
老师答疑
波老师:
完全同意黎老师的语法分析。但对于其中“每一句话”的翻译有一点点小看法。其实“每一句话”也可以用every word来翻译。如:
Get down every word she says. 记下她说的每句话。
The policeman noted down every word I said. 警察把我讲的每句话都记了下来。
I agree with every word you’ve just said. 我同意你刚说的每句话。
At the height of his fame, his every word was valued. 在他声名鼎盛之时,他的每句话都受到重视。
Melina was hanging on his every word, fascinated. 梅利娜凝神细听着他的每句话,被深深吸引住了。
Mrs Hastings’ eyes grow warmer and more appreciative with my every word. 我讲的每句话让黑斯廷斯夫人的眼神变得越来越热情,越来越充满欣赏。
另外,某人说的everything也常被翻译成“某人说的每一句话”。如:
The odour of hypocrisy hung about everything she said. 她说的每句话都假惺惺的。
The little boy parrots everything that his parents say. 那个小男孩机械地重复着他父母说的每一句话。
There was an appealing gravity to everything she said. 她说的每句话都带着一种庄严,很能吸引人。
黎老师:
“我的每一句话”,说成英语是my every sentence 【说明】
1. word 表示“(单)词”,words才表示“话”。a sentence 可以表示“一个句子”或“一句话”。例如:“这两句话说得不妥当。These two sentences are not suitable .”(《汉英双语现代汉语词典》p.840)
2. every 的前面可以用名词所有格或者形容词性物主代词。
my every friend (正确),every my friend (错误)
