时间上的“较早”或“更早”: 这是最基本和最常用的含义。它表示在时间顺序上发生在另一个事件之前。
顺序上的“较早”或“前面的”: 有时也可指在序列、列表或过程中位置靠前。
作为 "early" 的比较级: "Earlier" 是形容词和副词 "early" (早的/早地) 的比较级形式。因此,它本身就隐含了与另一个时间点或标准进行比较的含义。
与过去时连用表示“先前”、“刚才”: 在口语和书面语中,"earlier" 常与过去时态连用,指代不久之前发生的事,相当于 "a short time ago" 或 "before now"。
"Earlier" 的核心概念是时间或顺序上的靠前。它既可以作为形容词修饰名词,表示“更早发生的”或“更早时期的”,也可以作为副词修饰动词等,表示动作发生在“更早的时间点”或“先前”。理解其作为 "early" 的比较级形式有助于掌握其基本含义。在具体语境中,它常指相对于现在或另一个参照点而言的过去时间。
