標題[文法] and和then的疑問
時間Sat Aug 20 11:57:10 2016
大家好,想請問一下:
1.
pomelo noun
a large citrus fruit that has thick yellow skin and that tastes similar to a
grapefruit, but sweeter
上述的解釋裡的第二個that可以刪去嗎?成為:
a large citrus fruit that has thick yellow skin and tastes similar to a
grapefruit, but sweeter
原本裡面的and是連接兩個子句,那我是否可以換個角度思考,把那個and想成是連接
一個that子句中的兩個動詞就好,而刪去第二個that?
2.then這個詞蠻奇特的,辭典裡只給副詞、形容詞的詞性(也有辭典多給一個名詞),
但實際上好像常當連接詞用?例如:
朗文
Mix the flour and butter, then add the eggs.
Start off early, then you won’t have to rush.
牛津
He drank a glass of whisky, then another and then another.
劍橋
Let me finish this job, then we'll go.
Give her the letter to read, then she'll understand.
當然,「and then」這種正規的用法也很多,不過我好奇的是沒加「and」的情況。
另查到蘋果日報的專欄,作者認為這樣寫是錯誤的

請教各位看法,謝謝!
