“随时”别翻译为“at anytime”,别被这些小细节坑啦_Anytime

原标题:“随时”别翻译为“at anytime”,别被这些小细节坑啦

1、“随时”千万别翻译为“at anytime”

When to Use Anytime (One Word)

Anytime, used as a single word, is an adverb, and it has a meaning similar to “whenever,” “at any time,” or “ on any occasion.”

作为一个单词使用时,anytime是一个副词,它的意思类似于“whenever(不论何时)”, “at any time(随时)”, or “on any occasion(在任何场合)”。

例句:

If you have any questions, you can contact me anytime.

如果有任何问题,你可以随时联系我。

When to Use Any Time (Two Words)

Any time is a noun phrase, and it has a meaning similar to “any amount of time”.

Any time是一个名词词组,它和“any amount of time”的意思一样。

Just like the one-word anytime, the two-word any time also functions adverbially, but it also has additional functions as a noun phrase.

就像单词anytime一样,两个单词的any time也有副词用法,但它除此之外还可以作为名词词组。

那么大家可能就会有疑问了,既然这俩都可以作为副词,那是不是就意味着他们可以互相替换呢?其实并不可以。在我们在造句的时候,尤其需要注意他们与介词连用时,只有分开的两个词 any time 可以和介词连用,

举个例子:

I can hang out at any time tomorrow night. (CORRECT)

I can hang out at anytime tomorrow night. (WRONG)

因为介词后是不可以接副词的,大家在写作时一定要注意这些细节哦~

2、“体检”千万别翻译成”body check”!

曾经熬过的夜、吃过的各种重口味食物,报应就清清楚楚地写在体检报告上了。今天我们来说说体检的各种表达吧!有两种常见表达,一种是:physical exam,即:身体检查,这里的physical,意思是:身体的。另一种常见的说法则是:checkup(或check-up),两种说法都很常见,大家可以替代使用。
