barely ad.仅仅,只不过,几乎不
We barely had time to catch the train.我们仅有勉强赶上火车的时间。
【用法】1.barely 用在句首时引起句子倒装。 2.barely 含有否定意义,因此用在反意疑问句中时,句尾的疑问短句要用肯定形式。3.barely...when 结构表示“刚……就……”,barely 所在的部分要倒装。 4.barely 不与 ever,any 和 at all 连用。
【辨析】barely,hardly,rarely 和 scarcely四个词意义相近,都表否定概念,但也有一些差别。
rarely 意为“难得,不常”(not often)。
Rarely have I seen him smile.
hardly 往往强调能力上有困难,意为“简直不,很难”。
He can hardly jump over the fence.
scarcely 往往强调不足,常同 enough,sufficient,any 等表示程度的词连用,意为“不太,几乎,简直没有”。
