连接副词的分类:
连接副词可分为两类,一类是用于连接句子或从句,常见的有therefore, besides, otherwise, however, moreover, still, thus, meanwhile等;
另一类是用于引导从句或不定式,主要的有when, why, where, how等。
连接句子或从句的连接副词:
其性质类似于并列连词,使用时其前通常用分号或句号;若其前用逗号,则通常带有并列连词(如and):
如:I don't like it; besides, it's too expensive. 我不喜欢它,而且也太贵了。
We all tried our best; however, we lost the game./ We all tried our best. However, we lost the game. 我们都已尽了最大的努力,不过我们还是输了。
注意:有的连接副词(如however等)后通常有逗号与句子的其他成分隔开。另外,有的这类副词还可位于句中或句末:
如:Peter is our youngest child, and we have three others besides. 彼昨是我们最小的孩子,我们另外还有三个孩子。
He may, however, come later. 不过,他也许一会儿就到。
We all tried out best. We lost the game, however.我 们都已尽了最大的努力,不过我们还是输了。
引导从句和不定式的连接副词:
用于引导从句(名词性从句)或不定式的连接副词主要有when, why, where, how等:
如:Tell me when we shall leave./ Tell me when to leave. 告诉我什么时候离开。
I don't know how I can find him./ I don't know how to find him. 我不知道如何找到他。
Where we can get the money is just our problem./ Where to get the money is just our problem. 到哪里去弄这笔钱正是我们头痛的事。
That's why he speaks English so well. 那就是他为什么英语讲得这么好的原因。
注:连接副词why后不能接不定式,如可说:I don't know why I must leave. (我不知道我为什么必须离开),但不能说:I don't know why to leave.
