對等連接詞有哪些?用法解析與題目詳解
對等連接詞有哪些呢? 對等連接詞包含 for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so 共七個(可用每個連接詞的字首來記憶簡稱為“fanboys”) 。對等連接詞用來連接「字」、「片語」、「子句」讓所表達的語句變得更精簡漂亮,是在日常、多益考試及寫作中很常用到的文法概念,除了 "fanboys”外,本文將介紹多益常考相關連接詞的用法,包含both A and B (A和B兩者皆); not only A but also B (不僅A還有B,強調B); either A or B (A或B, 兩者選其一); neither A nor B (既不是A也不是B, 兩者皆非); 使用對等連接詞及相關連接詞時需要注意三個要點: 1.平行結構 2. 標點的使用 3. 主詞動詞一致性。除此之外,英文的"我也是"倒底該怎麼說才是正確的?很多讀者第一反應大概會是 "Me too." 但Me too. 只能用在肯定句的 "我也是",否定句的"我也是" 會講”Me either.” 或 "Me neither.” 本文將介紹如何正確使用 "too, so, either, neither” 這些與對等連接詞相關的字詞來表達"我也是" 除了舉例逐一說明每個對等連接詞及相關連接詞的用法之外,本文文末也將提供多益考試對等連接詞的題目與解析,希望能幫助要考多益的讀者。
對等連接詞Coordinating Conjunctions
在前言中我們提到對等連接詞包含 for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so 簡稱為“fanboys.” 對等連接詞可以用來連接文法功能相同的「字」、「片語」和「子句」讓所要表達的語句變得更精簡,首先我們來看一下如何使用對等連接詞連接「字」和「片語」:
1.對等連接詞連接「字」和「片語」: and, but, or, nor
在使用對等連接詞and, but, or, nor 連接文法功能相同的「字」和「片語」時要注意平行結構,例如:My cats like chicken and fish.
我的貓咪們喜歡雞肉和魚
*在這個句子中用and去連接chicken, fish兩個名詞
[平行結構為: 名詞 chicken + and +名詞 fish]
I swept the floor and cleaned the table.
我掃地並整理桌子
*在這個句子中用and去連接 swept the floor, cleaned the table兩個片語
[平行結構為: 動詞+名詞 swept the floor + and +動詞+名詞 cleaned the table]
She is studying English and (is) listening to music.
她邊讀英文邊聽音樂
*在這個句子中用and去連接 studying English, listening to music 兩個片語
[平行結構為: is studying English + and + listening to music; 第二個 is可以省略因為與第一個is共用]
Do you want tea or coffee?
你想要茶還是咖啡?
*在這個句子中用or去連接tea, coffee 兩個名詞
[平行結構為: 名詞 tea + or +名詞 coffee]
Jenny wants to play badminton or (to) go skating.
Jenny想要打羽球或著去溜冰
*在這個句子中用or 去連接 to play badminton, to go skating 兩個片語
[平行結構為: to play badminton +or + to go skating ; 第二個 to 可以省略因為與第一個to共用]
This house is big but old.
這間房子很大但很舊
*在這個句子中用but 去連接big, old 兩個形容詞
[平行結構為: 形容詞 big + but +形容詞 old]
I was hungry but didn’t eat on the train. I didn’t have time.
我肚子餓但沒有在火車上吃東西. 我沒時間吃
*在這個句子中用but 去連接 was hungry 以及 didn’t eat 兩個片語,主詞都為I 所以可以共用 ]
[平行結構為: was hungry + but + didn’t eat ]
What she needs is not love, nor money. It is respect.
她需要的東西不是愛情也不是金錢 而是尊重
*在這個句子中用nor去連接 love 以及money兩個名詞]
[平行結構為: 名詞 love +逗號 + nor +名詞 money ]
*一般對話中這句話應該會說 What she needs is not love or money. It is respect. 會用 or 去做連接,但是如果想要強調第二個詞語時,可使用nor去做連接
除了平行結構,在使用對等連接詞連接文法,功能相同的「字」和「片語」時要注意標點符號的用法,在開始講解之前,先請讀者先閱讀下面的句子並勾選標點使用正確的句子,測試一下自己已有的先備概念再看後面的講解會更有效率的學習喔~
1. I like cats, and dogs.
2. I like cats and dogs.
3. I like cats, dogs, and rabbits.
4. I like cats, dogs and rabbits.
5. I like cats dogs and rabbits
6. Cats, dogs, and rabbits, are my favorite animals.
正確答案: 2, 3, 4
不知道各位讀者有選對答案嗎? 接下來我們要講的是對等連接詞連接「字」和「片語」標點的用法:
*如果只使用對等連接詞連接兩個字或片語-> 不需要打逗號 例如: I like cats and dogs. -> 只有用and連接兩個字,所以不需要打逗號
*如果連接三者以上的字或片語-> 就需要在每個字或片語之間使用逗號隔開,至於and前面的逗號要不要寫? 答案是都可以 ,句子都是正確的 例如: I like cats, dogs, and rabbits. 和 I like cats, dogs and rabbits. 兩個句子都是正確的
句子中的逗號代表的是說話者在說話時的"停頓",這邊讀者要注意中文與英文在寫作上逗號與句號的符號型態及用法是不同的,寫作時中文的每一個完整句子之間會用逗號(,)隔開,在寫完一整個段落後才會打上句點(。) 但是英文寫作中,一個完整的句子寫完就要打上英文的句點(.) 不可以打逗號(,) 去連接句子喔! 如果要連接兩個獨立子句可使用「對等連接詞加上逗號」來連接,請看下列例句並注意標點符號的使用位置:
正確的句子:
I like cats. My brother likes dogs.
I like cats, but my brother likes dogs.
The brown cat ate some chicken. The black cat ate some fish.
The brown cat ate some chicken, and the black cat ate some fish.
錯誤的句子:
I like cats, my brother likes dogs.
2.對等連接詞連接兩個獨立的「子句」:
對等連接詞除了用以連接「字」和「片語」之外也很常使用來連接子句,如果不清楚子句是什麼的讀者,可以讀 "名詞子句基本用法解析" 這篇文章深入了解,簡單來說「子句」 是一組有主詞和有動詞的字群,有些子句是完整並且獨立存在的,有些子句被稱為 「從屬子句」則不能自己獨立存在,對等連接詞用以連接兩個獨立的子句,兩個子句中間會打逗號隔開:
Alice was tired, so she went to bed. Alice累了所以她上床睡覺
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is one of my favorite books, for I love fantasy.
獅子·女巫·魔衣櫥是我最喜歡的書之一 ,因為我喜愛奇幻文學
*這邊的連接詞 for 意思是because "因為"
Mary took an English class, and Joe took a French class.
Mary修英文課 Joe修法文課
Kate invited me to her birthday party, but I didn't want to go.
Kate邀請我去參加她的生日宴會 ,但是我不想去
Do we have to give a presentation tomorrow, or is it due next Monday?
我們明天必須要上台報告還是說是下周一才是截止日?
It was very hot, yet my grandmother didn't turn on the air conditioner.
天氣非常熱但是我的祖母沒有打開冷氣
*這邊的連接詞yet意思是but "但是"
Bruce doesn't own a house, nor does he plan to buy one.
Bruce沒有擁有房子 他也不打算買
*這邊的連接詞nor意思是 also not "也不" ,用於否定句子之後,以便連接另一個含有相關資訊的否定句子,並且使用倒裝句型寫出
簡單地來說 ,兩個獨立的子句可以使用下列三種方式連接表達:
1. 使用對等連接詞加上句子中間打逗號隔開
My students are learning new keywords, and they need to have more practice.
2. 使用句點隔開兩個句子
My students are learning new keywords. They need to have more practice.
3. 使用分號隔開兩個句子,分號用於連接兩個意思緊密相關的句子
My students are learning new keywords; they need to have more practice.
*如果讀者不確定該如何正確使用分號,可查看兩個句子之間是否能使用句點隔開,如果可以該句點的位置就是可以使用分號
另外要提醒讀者的是:在非正式的寫作中,有時候會看到作者在第二句的開頭使用對等連接詞,這也是正確的:
My students are learning new keywords. And they need to have more practice.
It was late. But he didn’t go to bed.
接下來我們來比較以下兩個句子標點符號的使用:
The wind started blowing in the afternoon, and it continued throughout the night.
The wind started blowing in the afternoon and continued throughout the night.
第一個句子是兩個獨立的子句,所以需要逗號隔開
第二個句子是一個獨立子句中含有兩個動詞,故不需要逗號
以上是關於對等連接詞的基本用法,下文將介紹多益考試中常出現的相關連接詞
相關連接詞 Correlative Conjunctions
多益考試中常出現的相關連接詞有:

neither A nor B (既不是A也不是B, 兩者皆非)
破解多益相關連接詞的題目必須要從了解題目語意及題目中給其中一個連接詞線索去著手(例如: 你看到or這個連接詞 前面的空格就很有可能是either),在本文的最後會提供多益練習題與解析 ,現在我們先來看幾個例句了解相關連接詞平行結構用法: 同上文所述相關連接詞會用來連接有相同文法功能的字詞 ,呈現如: Both 名詞 and名詞; either 形容詞 or 形容詞; not only 動詞+名詞 but also 動詞+名詞 的結構

3. Neither Betty nor Beth is coming to the workshop.
4. David can either read a book or play basketball with his friends.
5. Dr. Melaned not only teaches English literature very well but also speaks six languages.

對等連接詞之 "我也是" Too, So, Either, Neither 用法
英文的"我也是"倒底該怎麼說才是正確的?很多讀者第一反應大概會是 "Me too." 但多數讀者不知道的是
Me too. 只能用在肯定句的 "我也是"
例如: A說: 我喜歡貓 I like cats. B說: 我也是. Me too.
英文否定句的"我也是" 在日常對話中要講 “Me either.” 或 "Me neither.” 才是正確的喔!
例如: A說: 我不喜歡昆蟲 I don’t like insects. B說: 我也是 Me either. / Me neither.
除了口語中的用法,接下來我們來學習英文的 “我也是” 還可以怎麼說:
首先我們來看用兩個完整句寫的句型:
Alice開心,Mary 也開心
Alice is happy. Mary is happy, too.
Alice不開心,Mary 也不開心
Alice is not happy. Mary is not happy, either.
當在表達"我也是"可用兩個完整句表達,注意一個完整句就需要句點後再另開下一個完整句表達,肯定句的 “也” 用too寫,否定句的 “也” 用either 寫,但除此之外我們也可以用and這個對等連接詞去連接兩個句子表達"我也是",在歸類上讀者可以想像以X軸Y軸畫出的四象限: X軸我分為1.後半句以Be動詞作結尾的句型與2. 後半句以助動詞作結尾的句型,Y軸分為1.肯定句與2.否定句接下來將逐一舉例說明:

1.後半句以Be動詞作結尾的句型有:
(1)簡單式中句子主要動詞是Be動詞 (2)進行式及(3)未來式中be going to
1)簡單式中主要動詞是Be動詞
Alice is happy, and Mary is too.
Alice is happy, and so is Mary.
Alice是開心的,Mary 也是
Alice is happy, and her friends are too.
Alice is happy, and so are her friends.
Alice是開心的,她的朋友們也是
*Alice is happy, and Mary is too. 當前半句的動詞是Be動詞,後半句也用be動詞並搭配相應的時態(此句為現在簡單式 )及主動詞一致性(Mary 接is ) ,另外一個寫法Alice is happy, and so is Mary. 為倒裝句寫法,後半句需將主詞Mary和動詞is 的位置做對調: 寫成 so is Mary. 第三個例句Alice is happy, and her friends are too. 在用法上須注意主動詞一致性: her friends是複數,所以動詞會接are ,寫成her friends are too; 第四個例句Alice is happy, and so are her friends. 為倒裝句寫法,後半句需將主詞her friends和動詞are 的位置做對調: 寫成 so are her friends.
2)進行式
Andy is cleaning the house, and Jerry is too.
Andy is cleaning the house, and so is Jerry.
Andy正在清掃房子,Jerry也是
3) 未來式中be going to 寫法
Robert is going to watch TV tomorrow, and his sister is too.
Robert is going to watch TV tomorrow, and so is his sister.
Robert明天將要看電視,他的姐姐也是
*進行式及未來式中的be going to 則是把後面的完整句做省略只寫到be動詞的部分,第一個例句Andy is cleaning the house, and Jerry is (cleaning the house) too. 後半句把cleaning the house省略不寫出來; 第二個例句Andy is cleaning the house, and so is Jerry.為倒裝寫法,主詞Jerry與動詞is位置要對調: 寫成so is Jerry; 第三個例句Robert is going to watch TV tomorrow, and his sister is (going to watch TV tomorrow) too. 後半句把going to watch TV tomorrow省略不寫出來; 第四個例句Robert is going to watch TV tomorrow, and so is his sister. 為倒裝寫法,主詞his sister與動詞is位置要對調: 寫成so is his sister
否定用法:1)簡單式中主要動詞是Be動詞
Alice is not happy, and Mary isn’t either.
Alice is not happy, and neither is Mary.
Alice不開心,Mary 也不開心
Alice isn’t happy, and her friends aren’t either.
Alice isn’t happy, and neither are her friends.
Alice不開心,她的朋友們也不開心
*Alice is not happy, and Mary isn’t either. 請注意否定句的 “也” 要用either 寫; 另外一個寫法Alice is not happy, and neither is Mary. 為倒裝句寫法,要注意的除了主詞動詞作對調之外,更重要的是因為neither 本身就有否定的意思,所以neither後面不能再用isn’t 這個否定動詞,而是會用is寫: 寫成neither is Mary. 第三個例句Alice isn’t happy, and her friends aren’t either. 除了前述的重點須注意主動詞一致性: her friends是複數,所以動詞會接aren’t,寫成her friends aren’t either; 第四個例句Alice isn’t happy, and neither are her friends. 為倒裝句寫法,後半句先寫出neither 因有否定文意aren’t要改成are並將主詞her friends和動詞are的位置做對調: 寫成 neither are her friends. 進行式及未來式中be going to 寫法也是如上所述,例句如下:
2)進行式
Andy isn’t cleaning the house, and Jerry isn’t either.
Andy isn’t cleaning the house, and neither is Jerry.
Andy沒有正在清掃房子,Jerry也沒有
3) 未來式中be going to 寫法
Robert isn’t going to watch TV tomorrow, and his sister isn’t either.
Robert isn’t going to watch TV tomorrow, and neither is his sister.
Robert明天將不會看電視,他的姐姐也不會
2. 後半句以助動詞作結尾的:
除了上文提到(1)簡單式中句子主要動詞是Be動詞 (2)進行式及(3)未來式中be going to 後半句是以Be動詞作結尾的句型,其他的句型都是以一般助動詞(do, does, did, 現在完成式助動詞為have, has )及情態助動詞(will, would, can, could, should 等字)作結尾的,當前半句為一般動詞時,後半句搭配相應時態的助動詞(do, does, did, have, has);前半句若為can, will, should這類的情態助動詞,後半句也搭配同樣的情態助動詞,至於倒裝句的寫法規則同上文所述就不再贅述,下面逐一列出常用時態及情態助動詞的例句給讀者參考:
