nevertheless 的用法及固定搭配

nevertheless

1.nevertheless由never,the和less三个单词组合而成,这三个单词都是副词,never是“并不”,the是“因为了这个”,less是“比较地少些”。nevertheless直译作“并不因为了这个而比较地少些”,就是“虽然这样而仍旧不少些”,也就是“仍然”或“依然”的意思。例如:

  • Helen is not altogether dependable. She is, nevertheless, a good cook.
  • I warned him about the danger, nevertheless, he would go.

Nevertheless等于none the less,但该注意none the less前面和后面都不用逗号。例如:For all her years and infirmities, she is none the less eager to keep up with things.

2.nevertheless前面有时有yet或but。
