英语翻译:英语中“可能”的几种用法

来源:     时间:2008-06-03     浏览量:71
  句子:我们学英语时很可能犯错。
  误译:We are probable to make mistakes when we learn English.
  正译:1、It is probable/Likely that we will make mistakes when we learn English.
     2、Probably/Likely,we'll make mistakes when we study English.
     3、We are likely to make mistakes when learning English.
  解释:英语表示“非常可能”、“十有八九”等意思,可用probable/probably或likely。注意,likely既是形容词也是副词。probable只能用在It is probable that的句型中,而不能说We are probable to do sth。但likely既可用在It is likely that...,也可用在We are likely to do sth的句型中。
  例如:
  1、他很可能是忘了。It is probable that he forgot.
  2、他或许没听懂我的话。Probably,he didn't catch my meaning.
  3、她很可能被雨淋透了。It is likely that she got so aked through in the rain.
  注意:possible的概率小于probable,就像汉语中的“可能”、“大概”。possible同样也只能用于It is possible(for sb)to do sth的句型。
  例如:
  4、这事多半如此,不只是可能。It's probable,not only possible.
