关系分句
第34讲 关系分句
3)在非限制性关系分句中
如前所述,非限制性关系分句中,通常用who(m)/whose指人,用which 指物。
The driver, who was very young, had only just got his licence. The book, which only appeared a year ago, has already gone through several editions.
因此,关系代词的选择带有一定的复杂性,必须综合考虑上述诸种 因素加以选择。
1)在限制性关系分句中
a) 在其中作主语时,按照一般的则用who/that指人,which/that指物。 但在实际使用中,指人大多用who,较少用that;指物大多用that,较少用 which;尤其在口语中是如此。
He’s the man who lives next door to us. He drives a car that can travel 150 miles an hour.
(=…and Moriarty passed it on to me.)
状语分句 But he would have to be careful not to offered Crass, the foreman, who could give him the sack at any time.
(=…because he could give him the sack at any time.)
interesting, which is quite a different thing. 在这里,which指的是上文部分内容,即指(men) not half so interesting (as Bowles)。
定语从句
3、由than引导的定语从句 在带有比较级的句子中,than可以 作代词,兼有连词和代词的性质。 在这样的定语从句也可以理解成 than 是连词,后面省略了主语what
The old man has eaten more food than is good for his health.
4、由but引导的定语从句 but作为关系代词主要与具有否定意 义的主句连用,且只用于限定性定 语从句。But可以指代人,也可指代 物,but的意思是who… not, that (which)…not. Not a day went by but brought us new changes.
定语从句(关系分句)
定义:关系分句(Relative Clause) 是由关系词引导的分句结 构。这种分句 结构又称“定语从 句”(Attributive Clause), 因为 这种分句的主要功能是作名词修饰 语(即“定语”)。但是,关系分 句除作“定语”外,还可表示其他 意义,因此将这种结构特征名之为 “关系分句”。
1在限制性关系分句中关系代词 的选择
a) 在分句中作主语的关系代词的选择,一般规则 who/that指人,which/that指物。
He is the man who lives next door to us.
b )关系代词作介词补足成分,介词通常前置, whom指人,which指物。
James is a man for whom I have the greatest respect.
c)当先行项被形容词最高级 ,序数词以及 first、last、few、no、very 等词修饰时。
He is the cleverest man that ever taught in our school.
英语关系分句的解读与翻译新探
英语关系分句的解读与翻译新探英语关系分句是英语语法中的一种重要结构,通常由两个或多个分句构成,其中一个分句包含一个或多个连词,而另一个分句则包含一个或多个副词或从句。
关系分句在英语中广泛应用于句子的转折、因果、条件等语义关系的表达,因此对于英语翻译来说也非常重要。
本文将探讨英语关系分句的解读和翻译新探。
首先,我们将介绍英语关系分句的定义、结构和常见类型。
然后,我们将探讨如何准确地翻译关系分句,包括选择合适的翻译技巧和方法。
最后,我们将通过实例分析,展示如何在实际翻译中应用这些技巧和方法。
一、英语关系分句的定义、结构和常见类型英语关系分句是指由两个或多个分句组成的句子,其中第一个分句包含一个或多个连词,而第二个分句则包含一个或多个副词或从句。
关系分句在英语中广泛应用于句子的转折、因果、条件等语义关系的表达。
英语关系分句通常包含连词和副词,其中连词包括转折连词(switch word)、条件连词(if-then)、并列连词(and-or)等,而副词则常用于修饰连词或从句。
关系分句的结构通常是这样的:主语 + 连词 + 谓语 + 宾语 +副词 + 从句。
其中,主语通常是句子的主要主体,谓语则是对主语的动作或状态的描述,宾语则是动作或状态的对象,而副词则用于修饰连词或从句,以表达句子的语义关系。
英语关系分句常见的类型有:1. 转折关系分句:在两个分句中,第一个分句表达一种负面或相反的关系,而第二个分句则表达一种正面或相同的关系。
2. 因果关系分句:在两个分句中,第一个分句表达一种因果关系,而第二个分句则表达与第一个分句相同的结果或条件。
3. 条件关系分句:在两个分句中,第一个分句表达一种条件关系,而第二个分句则表达与第一个分句相同的结果或条件。
4. 并列关系分句:在两个分句中,第一个分句表达一种并列关系,而第二个分句则表达与第一个分句相同的结果或条件。
二、如何准确地翻译关系分句,包括选择合适的翻译技巧和方法要准确地翻译关系分句,需要选择合适的翻译技巧和方法。

如何区分关系代词与关系副词?
方法1: 准确判断先行词在定语从句中的成分(主、谓、宾、 定、状),正确选择出关系代词/关系副词。 方法2: 用关系代词,还是关系副词完全取决于从句中的谓语 动词。及物动词后面无宾语,就必须要求用关系代词;而不 及物动词则要求用关系副词。
关系分句
关系分句(Relative Clause)关系分句也叫定语从句(attributive clause)限制性关系分句于非限制性分句:限制性分句与先行词是不可分割的。
缺了它,句子的表述就不完整。
Stone is one of the teachers (who) I like most.非限制性关系分句与先行词的关系比较松散,没了,句子也完整。
Stone’s speech, which bored everyone, went on and on, he ignoring our protest.一般来说,当先行词带有表示类别的不定冠词,定冠词或all, any, some, every, no等限定词的时候,其后的关系分句是限定性的。
She was a woman who must be treated decently.He is the man who told me the news.Anyone who knows the answer please raise your hands.当先行词是专有名词或物主代词或指示代词所修饰时,后面的关系分句是非限定的(P420)。
My cousin, who is an engineer, went to Europe last week.Stone, who is my grammar teacher, is a very perverted/obscene man.但是也有定冠词the修饰先行词,后面用限制性关系分句的。
The Chairman, who spoke first, sat on my right.另外一点,非限制性关系分句还可以修饰整个句子,把前面的主句作为先行词。
Liquid water changes to vapor, which is called evaporation.除了which外,as也能引导非限制关系分句,区别(P421 讨论)关系词的选择:1. 用that不用which的情况1) 先行词既指人又指物,后面用that不用who。
《英语语法》第十二章 关系分句
第十二章关系分句限制性与非限制性关系分句分两种:限制性关系从句与非限制性关系从句。
这两种关系分句的划分非常重要,因为它们不仅形式不同,作用也不同。
①Jilian Brown.who lives next door is travelling in Scotland.吉连·布朗,住在隔壁,现在正在苏格兰旅行。
②The girl who lives next door is now travelling in Scotland.住在隔壁的那个女孩子现在正在苏格兰旅行。
③Anne returned my book to the library by mistake, whichJ bought at a bookstore at Cambridge.安妮误把我的书错还给图书馆了,那本书是我在剑桥一个书店买的。
④This is the book(which/that) I bought at a bookstore at Cambridge.这是我在剑桥一个书店买的书。
首先,在①和③中的非限制性关系分句在书写时用逗号隔开,在口语中有轻微的停顿和前后语调的变化。
在句②和④中的限制性关系分句没有这些特征。
其他形式上的区别还包括代词的选择。
如果一个分句是象④句中那样由that来引导(或者是萋羞运贫词歹,那么这个分句一定是限制性关系分句。
但如果是象③句中那样由which引导(或其他wh-词),那么它可能是限制性也可能是非限制性关系分句。
鬯乡趸拳思王韭堡型关系分句中。
其次,两种关系分句作用不同。
限制性关系分句是名词词组不可分割的一部分,为确定先行项的所指对象提供必不可少的信息。
在句②中女孩的身份决定于她的住址。
句④也一样,其中关系分句为书的所指对象提供必不可少的信息。
另一方面,非限定性关系分句只提供那些对确定我们所谈论的人或物的所指对象来说不需要的附加信息,所以,如果省略了非限定性关系分句,并不影响先行项的所指意义。
英语关系分句
关系分句(Relative Clause)是由关系词 (Relative Word)引导的分句结构。关系 分句又叫定语从句。 关系分句就其与先行项的语义关系分为限定 性关系分句和非限定性关系分句。
• 4.the+名词+of+关系代词
• 在这种结构中,关系代词只能用which,它表示的是一种 所有关系.我们也可以用“whose+名词”和“of which the+名词”来代替.如:
• ①I have read the novel,the tittle of which (whose tittle /of which the tittle) is Red and Black.我读过名叫《红与黑》的小说. • ②I live in the house ,the window of which(whose window/of which the window)faces south.我住的房子窗户朝南.
4)Who,Whom
• who,whom用于指人,前者作主语,后者作 宾语。 • The man who greeted you was my neighbor. • Tell me something about the man for whom I shall be working.
5)Whose
2)Where
• where 引导关系分句,相当于介词 in,at+which。
• Have you ever been in a situation__you know the other person is right yet you cannot agree with him?(2002,44) • A.by which B.that C.in where D.where

关系分句的多功能性
关系分句的多功能性关系分句分名词性关系分句和非名词性关系分句。
名词性关系分句由what,whatever,where,wherever,who,whoever,whichever等wh-词引导的关系分句叫做名词性关系分句,这类分句从语义关系上相当于带有关系分句作后置修饰语的名词词组。
从语法结构形式看是分句形式,从语义关系看相当于名词词组,从语义关系看wh-词含有“先行项+关系代词(名词性、副词性关系代词)”的关系。
所以,根据语法结构形式和语义关系称这一类的语法结构为名词性关系分句,“分句”作中心词,所以主要是根据语法结构形式归类命名的。
它在句子中能充当主语、宾语、主语补语或介词补足成分就不言而喻了。
举例说明如下。
1.Whoever told you to quit smoking was quite right.(告诉你要戒烟的人是完全正确的。
)Whoever told you to quit smoking是主语从句。
它相当于带有限制性关系分句作后置修饰语的名词词组(Anyone who told you to quit smoking),这种情况不能使用Who。
Whoever表示特指、泛指、类指均可。
用Whoever比用Anyone who简洁。
2.So that's who he's working for.(确实,这就是他的雇主。
)who he's working for是主语补语从句。
3.I'm who you'er looking for.(我就是你要找的人。
)who you'er looking for是主语补语从句。
特指的who最常见于充当主语补语的分句,尤其在that's后面。
4.Quality is what counts most.(特指,what=that which)(质量是最重要的。
)what counts most是主语补语从句。
关系分句
Who / that
当关系代词指人时,关系代词既可用who, 也可以用that。但在以下情况用who。
1.当先行词是persons, people, those时。例如: Those who are for my plan , please put up your hands. 同意我的计划的人请举手。 Persons who are quarrelsome are despised.好争者被 轻视。 2.当先行词是he, one, all, any, they等时,例如: He who has not reached the Great Wall isn't a true man. 不到长城非好汉。 All who had seen this film were moved.看过这部电 影的人都受感动。
3.当which引导的从句在意义上近乎并列 关系时,可以用and this, and that代替, 意思是“这件事”,例如: He changed his mind, which (and this, and that) made me very angry.他改变了主意, 这使我很生气。 She has married again, which (and this, and that ) was unexpected.出乎意料的是,也 又结婚了。

Jilian Brown, who lives next door, is now traveling in Scotland.(非限制性关系分句/Non-restrictive relative
In form, firstly, non- restrictive clause is set off in writing by commas, which is indicated in speech by a slight pause and characteristic change in pitch both before and after. The restrictive clause is not set off by such features. Secondly, the choice of pronouns is different. If the clause is introduced by ‘that’ or a zero relative pronoun, it must be a restrictive relative clause; if it is introduced by which or other wh -words, it may be either restrictive or non-restrictive. With the non-restrictive relative clause, ‘that’ cannot be used.
两种关系分句在功能上也有很大不同。限制性关系分句是 名词词组不可分割的一部分并且为确认先行项的所指对象 提供了必不可少的信息。相反,非限制性关系分句仅仅提 供额外信息,这不是识别我们正在谈论的这个人或物的必 要信息。因此,这种信息可以省略,但并不严重地影响对 整个句子的理解 。
英语关系分句
• 当一个先行项后面出现一个以上【主要是两个】
关系分句的现象。有两种情况:
• 1两个关系分句由并列连词连接,处于同一层次。 • You will easily find us;just look for a house whose windows need washing and whose fence needs repairing! • 2两个关系分句处于不同的层次。 • She is the only girl i know who can play the guitar.
4)Who,Whom
• who,whom用于指人,前者作主语,后者作 宾语。 • The man who greeted you was my neighbor. • Tell me something about the man for whom I shall be working.
5)Whose
由“介词+关系代词”引导的限定分句
• 能做这种用法的关系代词 主要是which,其次是whom, 有时是关系限定词whose。 • 例句1:They tried to think of
a plan by which they could fulfil their task ahead of time.
• ②Beijing is the place where (=in which )I was born.
• ③Is this the reason why (=for which)he refused our offer?
• 2.复杂介词+关系代词 • 在这种结构中,可使用的关系代词有which,whom 和whose, 常用的复杂介词有at the back of ,as a result of ,because of ,by means of ,in front of ,in support of ,on account of等。
分句间的关系
分句间的关系(学习资料,注意保存)一、并列关系:几个分句分别叙说相关联的几件事情或同一事物的几个方面,能够分为平列式和对比式两类。
并列式常用的关联词,单用的有“也、又、还、同时、同样”等,成套使用的有“也A也B,又A又B,既A也B(又B)、一方面A(另)一方面B、一会儿A,一会儿B,一边A,一边B,有时A,有时B”。
1、山色逐渐变得柔嫩,山形也逐渐变得柔和。
2、他一边来回走动,一边不停地叹息。
3、我们既要有现代化的农业,又要有现代化的工业。
平列式常常不用关联词,如:4、几天来,我持续地漫步山野,巡行田间。
对比式常用的关联词是“不是A,而是B,是A,不是B”5、不是我怕他,而是我不跟他一般见识。
6、人们不应该迷信古书上的道理,而应该重视客观事实。
对比式关联词也有单用的,也常不用:7、虚心使人进步,骄傲使人落后。
二、承接关系几个分句按顺序叙述连续发生的动作或相关的情况。
常用的关联词语,单用的有“就、便、才、于是、而后、然后、接着、后来”等,成套使用的有“首先A,然后B、开始A,后来B,最后C,起先A,后来B”等。
1、我的第一本书,最初也是经鲁迅先生介绍给一家书店,而后又由另一家拿去出版了的。
2、他听了这话,转身便走了。
承接关系也有不用关联词语的,如:3、月亮悄悄地爬上了树头,将银辉洒向辽阔无垠的田野。
三、递进关系后面分句比前一分句表示更进一层的意思。
递进关系的复句必须用关联词语表示。
常用的关联词语,单用的有“而且、并且、何况、况且、甚至、反而、还、更”等,成套使用的有“不但(不但、不只、不光)A,而且(还、也、又)B”、“不但A,而且B,甚至C”,“尚且A,何况(更不用说还)B”、“别说(慢说、不要说)A,连(就是)B也C”等。
1、他一定会打篮球,而且打得很好。
2、他不但学习好,而且思想品质也好。
3、小个子尚且钻不进去,何况大个子。
4、小王不但没露出嫌少的意思,反而说了些领情的话。
“反而”表示跟前文意思相反或出乎意料之外,从相反的角度将意思推动。
并列关系的句子三个分句
1.他即是少先队员,又是我们小组的组长,还是我们班的三好学生。
2.关爱是一个眼神,给学生无声的祝福;关爱是一缕青风,给学生身心的舒畅;关爱是一场春雨,给学生心田的滋润;关爱是一句问侯,给学生春天的温暖。
3.如果说爱是三月淅沥的春风,感恩就是小草吐露的新绿;如果说爱是初夏生机的日光,感恩就是材木成长的浓绿;如果说爱是冬日洁白的雪花,感恩就是颗粒饱满的小麦。
4.您不是雨露,却带来了新生的希望;您不是泉水,却带来了生命的甘甜;您不是太阳,却带来了人间的温暖。
双重关系分句例句详解
双重关系分句例句详解双重关系分句双重关系分句(double relative clause) 指同一个先行项之后跟有两个关系分句的语法现象。
我们知道,一个先行项之后多数只跟有一个关系分句;在同一个句子中,即使出现几个关系分句,也往往各有不同的先行项。
例如:The cat killed the rat that ate the malt that lay in the house that Jack built.猫杀死了那只老鼠,因为老鼠吃掉了麦芽糖,而麦芽糖就在那房子里,房子是杰克盖的。
但是,也有一个先行项后面出现一个以上(主要是两个)关系分句的现象这有两种情况:一种是,两个关系分句由并列连词连接,处于同一层次。
例如:You' ll easily find us; just look for a house whose windows need washing and whose fence needs repairing!你会很容易找到我们:就找一栋房子的窗户需要洗,篱笆需要修!The best play which Shakespeare wrote, but which I haven't read, is probably King Lear.那个最好的剧本,莎士比亚写的,但我还没读过的,可能就是《李尔王》了。
另一种情况是,两个关系分句处于不同层次。
例如:She's the only girl I know who can play the guitar.她是那唯一的女孩,我认识,会弹吉他。
在上例中,第一个关系分句know 修饰the only girl, 第二个关系分句who can play the guitar 进一步修饰the only girl I know.。

关系分句——定语从句简介:关系分句即定语从句,就是由关系词引导的分句结构。
这种分句的主要功能就是作名词修饰语(即定语)。
依据定语从句与先行项的语义关系:1、限制性定语从句2、非限制性定语从句热身体验:1、限制性定语从句:缺少定语,作为先行项的名词便不能明确表示其所指对象。
例如: He is the boy who damaged the vase、2、非限制性定语从句:省略定语,先行项所指意义不受影响。
例如:My cousin, who is an engineer, went to Europe last week、限制性定语从句1、限制性定语从句在口语中前后没有停顿,在书写中通常不用逗号。
例如The man who did the robbery has been caught、The chair (which) i sat was a broken one、Can you show me the house where Shakespeare once lived?The reason why i was alone in the mountains is that i had a difficulty with my guide、2、限制性定语从句通常出现在下列搭配中:2、1、当名词中心词带有表示类别的不定冠词时,其后的定语从句通常为限制性定语从句。
She was a woman who must be treated decently、He spoke to me in a tone which i don’t at all like、2、2、当名词中心词带有前照应定冠词时,其后的定语从句也必定就是限制性的。
例如: He is the man who told me the newsThis is the car i bought last year、2、3、当名词中心词带有all, any, some, every, no 等不定限定词时,其后的定语从句也通常就是限定性的。
