若不是意思相近,lately 和 recently 是死活不会被扯到一块的,但是不管它们之间有什么区别,小编我始终觉得存在就是合理的,如果 lately 够用,为什么会有 recently,反之亦然。 可能你翻遍所有的权威字典,关于 lately 和 recently 的明确区别,估计你是很难找到的;能被找到的都是一些差不多一样的区别,那么我们先从它们差不多一样的区别开始往真相出发。 Lately 和 recently 一般情况下通用,特别是用于现在完成时和现在完成进行时,它们基本上是互为备份,讨论的是过去的情况且现在还在继续,例如:They haven't written to each other lately/recently.他们最近没有通信。Have you seen any good movies lately/recently?你最近看过什么好电影吗?Alice has been sick a lot recently/lately.爱丽丝最近病得很厉害。They've been seeing a lot of each other recently/lately.他们近来老泡在一起。但是今天的重点是研究它们不能通用的情况,在以下情况中,它们不能通用,也是大家比较认同的“规则”,比如: 1. recently 可以置于过去分词之前,而 lately 不行,例如:最近出版的书a recently published book (正确)a lately published book (错误)最近上映的电影a recently released movie (正确)a lately released movie (错误)最近完成的项目a recently completed project (正确)a lately completed project (错误)最近宣布的运动a recently announced campaign (正确)a lately announced campaign (错误)最近发现的行星a recently discovered planet (正确)a lately discovered planet (错误)2. 在一些组合中,用 recently,而不用 lately,例如 as recently as, more recently,most recently 或 until recently 等,例如:I was going to paint the room white, but more recently I've been considering a light blue.我本来打算把房间漆成白色,但最近我一直在考虑用浅蓝色。As recently as a year ago, he was a former Olympic champion.就在一年前,他还是前奥运冠军。Until recently they were living in York.他们不久以前还住在约克。3. recently 可用于一般过去时(发生在过去的某个时间点),用来讨论不久前发生的事情,而 lately 不可以,这也是很多人觉得 recently 用于时间点,而 lately 用于时间段,例如:他最近发现了真相。He discovered the truth recently. (正确)He discovered the truth lately. (错误)我们不久以前收到了他的一封信。We received a letter from him recently. (正确)We received a letter from him lately. (错误)这家银行最近在德国开设了一家分行。The bank opened a branch in Germany recently. (正确)The bank opened a branch in Germany lately. (错误)但是在一些非正式的场合中,lately 可用于一般现在时或现在进行时,而 recently 不这样用,因为按照定义,recently 意为“not long ago”,反应的时间必须始于过去的某个时间,例如: 她最近似乎很高兴。She seems to be happy lately. (正确)She seems to be happy recently. (错误)他最近很小心。He’s being very careful lately. (正确)He’s being very careful recently. (错误)就像开头说的,存在就是合理的。总结一下 lately 和 recently 的区别就是:1. 当两者用于现在完成时或现在完成进行时,是互为替身。2. 因为 recently 必须总是与过去的时间联系起来,所以它还可以用于一般过去时,那么它不用于一般现在或现在进行时;而 lately 在某些场合中可以用于一般现在时和现在进行时。3. recently 可置于过去分词之前和用于比较句型,而 lately 不可。一顿分析猛如虎,分来分去还是挺有结果的嘛,因此存在就是合理的,很多时候感觉都会的语法也都只是一种感觉,学习要认真,有的时候也要较真。您的支持最重要!!!如果您觉得这篇文章对您有帮助,请不要吝啬在右下角点“在看”和点赞。为了防止迷路,请设置为”星标“,我们将一如既往地输出更多优质的此类文章。
