欢迎收看《每日语法》栏目,我是卡维。
I'm Lucija. We don't have enough time today, so I suggest we just jump into our lesson!
我是露西佳。今天的时间不多,我建议直接进入正题。
Today we'll go over how to use the subjunctive to express urgency or importance.
今天,我们会详细讲述用虚拟语气来表述紧急性或重要性的用法。
But since we need to hurry, here is one common structure of the subjunctive: Verb + that + object + simple verb.
既然我们比较着急,就介绍一个虚拟语气的常用结构吧,即,动词+that+宾语+简单动词,例如:
I advise that you hire a lawyer.
我建议你雇个律师。
The second form of subjunctive uses: It is + adjective + that + object + simple verb.
虚拟语气用法的第二个形式是:It is+形容词+that+宾语+简单动词,例如:
It is important that she arrive on time.
她准时到达很重要。
Using the subjunctive is a good way to be polite when telling someone what to do.
当你告诉某人要做什么的时候,使用虚拟语气显得礼貌。
The subjunctive is formal and diplomatic.
虚拟语气很正式且严谨。
So instead of saying:
因此,与其说:
Stop slurping your soup!
别在喝汤时发出声音。
You could say:
你可以说:
I suggest that you wait until the soup has chilled.
我建议你等到汤凉了再喝。
Kaveh, did we miss anything?
卡维,我们是不是漏掉了什么?
Ah, yes! It is essential that you remember this:
啊!是的,记住这点很重要:
There is no third person –s in the subjunctive. You can't say:
虚拟语气不存在第三人称(-s),不可以说:
It is important that she reads the book.
It is important that she reads the book.(错误用法)
You have to say:
你要说:
It is important that she read the book.
读这本书对她来说很重要。
Usually the person using the subjunctive has power over the listener.
一般情况下,使用虚拟语气说话的人在听话者面前有一定的权威,
Like a mother speaking to a child or a boss speaking to an employee. It's a polite way to give a command.
例如,母亲对孩子说话或老板对员工说话,虚拟语气是下达命令的礼貌的方式。
