关于星期的说法在日常英语里非常常见,下面是一些需要注意的语法规则,务必要弄清楚哦~
1. 在 this week, next week, last week 这种表达里,不需要用介词on,但如果语境需要,前面可加 for, until, till, since 等介词。例句:
I have several engagements for next week.
我下个星期有几个预约。
Could you hold off (making) your decision until next week?
你能推迟到下周再作决定么?
2. “今天是星期几”,用英语可以这样表达:
What day is it today?
What day of the week is it today?
3. “两个星期”,在美式英语里表达成这样 two weeks,但在英式英语里比较常用 fortnight。
4. 下面几个表达的意思容易混淆,需要进行区分:
a week ago today =seven days ago
上个星期的今天
a week on Tuesday =seven days from next Tuesday
下周星期二后的一个星期
today week=this day week = a week from today
下个星期的今天
Thursday week = the Thursday after next Thursday
下下个周四
5. 星期几的名词(Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday)的用法:
(1) 跟月份名词连用时,一般放在前面。例句:
Gilbert was born at 11:58 on Friday November 18th 1986.
Gilbert 生于1986年11月18日星期一的11点58分。
(2)“每周的星期五”习惯表达成 every Friday,而不是 on Friday every week。
(3) 表示在周几,前面一般课用介词on,但在非正式文体里常可省去。例句:
I'll see you Saturday.
周六我们再见。
(4) 可以有复数形式,表示经常性的。例句:
He used to come here on Sundays.
他过去每个星期天都会来。
We get paid on Mondays.
我们是每个星期的周一发工资。
