Never and ever意思
"Never" 和 "ever" 是英語中常用的副詞,它們的意思分別如下:
-
Never: 從不,永不。用於否定句中,表示某個動作或狀態從未發生過或將來也不會發生。例如:
- I have never seen such a beautiful place. (我從未見過這麼美麗的地方。)
- She will never forget that day. (她永遠不會忘記那一天。)
-
Ever: 曾經,在任何時候。用於疑問句或肯定句中,表示某個動作或狀態曾經發生過一次或多次。在否定句中,"ever" 通常與 "not" 連用,表示「從未」。例如:
- Have you ever been to Japan? (你曾經去過日本嗎?)
- She has never seen a blue rose. (她從未見過藍色的玫瑰。)
- I have not seen her ever since she moved away. (自從她搬走後,我就再也沒有見過她。)
需要注意的是,"ever" 還可以用於「at any time」或「by any chance」的意思,詢問是否有可能發生某事。例如:
- Have you ever considered learning a new language? (你有沒有考慮過學習一門新語言?)
- Would you ever think of coming back? (你有沒有想過回來?)
在某些情況下,"ever" 可以與 "never" 搭配使用,形成對比。例如:
- She has never been late for work, ever since she started this job. (自從她開始這份工作以來,她上班從未遲到過。)
總之,"never" 和 "ever" 分別表示否定和肯定的概念,用於不同的句子結構和語境中。
