修中圈儿
Corner是英语中较为常见的单词,意为“角落/拐角处”。Corner也可组成不同的介词短语,in the corner,at the corner,和on the corner。这三个短语看似相似,在含义上却有差别。
先看看下面这些例句:
She stacked all the books in the corner of the room.
她把所有的书都堆在了房间拐角处。
Let’s go to that bar on the corner after work.
我们下班后去拐角处那家酒吧喝一杯吧。
There is a shop at the corner, where you can buy fruits.
在拐角处有家商店,你可以在那里买水果。
1.In the corner表示在某一范围内的角落 ,一般强调180度以下的内角里和立体的角(如墙角,柜子角等)内。
2.on the corner可以表示“在拐角上/在角上” ,强调在角的顶点上,这里的角一般指平面的角(如道路的拐角)在表示“在拐角处”时可以和at the corner互换。
3.at the corner表示在拐角处,在拐角周围(如角边),范围要大一些。多指在180度以上的角。
因此,上面的例句应该这样翻译更为准确:
She stacked all the books in the corner of the room.
她把所有的书都堆在了房间的墙角处。
Let’s go to that bar on the corner after work.
我们下班后去拐角处(拐角的顶点处)那家酒吧喝一杯吧。
There is a shop at the corner, where you can buy fruits.
在拐角周围有家商店,你可以在那里买水果。
