先说逻辑:
你听到窗外树上有鸟叫。你可以用汉语作这样一个表达:“树上有鸟。”这在汉语,是
一个明确,完整的表达。英语只有用“There's a bird on the tree. 或者“There
are birds on the tree”
都必须先把树上究竟是只有一只鸟还是有一只以上的鸟弄清楚。如果这个信息对你很
重要的话,那么,不妨先去把鸟数一下然后再说话,也就罢了。可是,在绝大多数场合
,我们并不关心鸟的具体数目,这类信息即使弄清楚了也没有表达出来的必要,何况还
有弄不清楚的时候。并且,如果窗外的树不止一棵,那么,就英语而言,除了有“
There are birds on the tree”外,还有“There are birds on the trees”的可能
。你想要不把话说错,不但要把鸟数清楚,还要弄清楚这些鸟是停在同一棵树上还是分
停在不同的树上。
这种词尾变化越多,语言的效率就越低。对精确性也毫无帮助。
汉化后的英语将会是这样:当我们知道树上有鸟但是数目不详或无意表达数目时,可用
“There be birds on the tree”。... 阅读全帖 |
