參考來源:
"Than before" 是一個英語比較短語,字面意思是"比之前",用于強調當前狀态與過去狀态的對比變化。以下從三個層面詳細解析:
核心語義
由比較連詞"than"和時間副詞"before"組成,整體表達"與過去相比更..."的遞進含義。例如:"Now the air quality is better than before"(現在空氣質量比之前更好)。這種結構省略了具體比較對象,默認指向過去某一時間點。
語法特征
• 常接在形容詞/副詞比較級之後:"She speaks English more fluently than before"
• 主句時态多為現在時或現在完成時:"Prices have risen faster than before"
• 可替代重複的完整時間狀語,避免冗餘(如不說"than it was before")
同義替換
根據語境可替換為"than previously"(更正式)、"than in the past"(強調長期變化)或"than [具體時間段]"(如than last year)。注意:"than ever before" 強調"史上最...",語氣更強烈。
典型誤用提醒:該短語不可單獨使用,必須依附于比較級結構。錯誤示例:❌"This method is effective than before" → 正确應為"This method ismore effective than before"。
