Grammar

独立主格结构

独立主格结构的构成是:

逻辑主语+分词或形容词,名词,副词,介词短语。使用独立主格结构是因为该结构中的逻辑主语与主句的主语不同。逻辑主语(即意思上的主语)可以是名词代词甚至是一个句子。这种结构和一个从句差不多,前面的名词或代词相当于从句中的主语(也就是后面部分的逻辑上的主语),后面部分相当于从句中的谓语或表语。在描绘性文字中有时会使用这种结构,以是使描述更加生动.这种结构常用作状语,表示一种方式,环境伴随的状况等.with也常常用在这种结构中作引导词.在翻译为汉语时可以译作一个状语或是一个并列的句子.在口语中很少用这个结构.

e.g.He slept with the door open.

门开着,他睡着了.

He stood there with his hat in hand.

他站在那里,手里拿着帽子.

Weather permitting, we’ll play basketball tomorrow.

如果天气允许的话,我们明天打篮球.
