loss aversion 损失规避 今日语法:限定词语序
能说 a very difficult problem,为什么不能说 a too difficult problem,而要说 too difficult a problem ?<br>
答:因为英语里有一条规律:凡名词前面有形容词(如 difficult problem),而形容词前面又有too, how,so, as等副词时,冠词a (an)要 放到形容词之后、名词之前。因此,不能说a too difficult problem,而要说too difficult a problem ( —个太难的问题)。
说 such a problem,不说a such problem,是不是也属于这一情 况?
答:是一种与此类似的情况,但关联到另外两条规律:
1)冠词a(an)在和such,what, many这三个词一起用时,要放在 其后,不放在其前,如:Such a problem, such a day; what a pity, what a nice place; many a person。<br>
2)冠词放在quite,rather之前或之后都可以,如a quite/ rather difficult problem,或 quite/rather a difficult problem 都可以说,都 是“一个相当难的问题”。但用在后面,比较常见。 无功而返 came up empty-handed
