根深蒂固

 

 

正確使用I, Me, My, Mine and Myself

孩子對我說：你可以讀故事好幾遍，為何你不讀文法？怪不得你英文那麼差。我想了很久，是的，我該讀文法。今天的文法課是：正確使用I, Me, My, Mine and Myself.

如果你對I, Me, My, Mine and Myself覺得困擾，你並不孤單！在本課程中，您將學習他們之間的區別與正確的使用。

I and ME

我是主詞 - 誰是活動的人。只能用“I”時，是指自己在句子的主詞。換句話說，你是採取主動。

我給約翰書。

ME是受詞 - 誰接收了一個指令。代名詞“me”時，是指你執行別人的指令。

這本書是約翰給我的。或者約翰將書遞給我。

當有一個以上的主語或受詞，人都變得有點糊塗了，所以我們看如何正確使用：

約翰和我在party看到Jane。

John=主詞

I =主詞

Jane=受詞

老師叫吉姆和我。

老師=主詞

吉姆=受詞

我=受詞

My and Mine

名詞之前用My，名詞之後，用Mine。

記得My總是跟著名詞，其中Mine替換名詞。

約翰是我的朋友。

約翰是我的一個朋友。

這些都是我的眼鏡。

這些眼鏡是我的。

MYSELF

代名詞“MYSELF”只有當執行自己的動作中使用。沒有人可以對你做任何事情。

這個詞myself用在兩種情況下：

當你做你自己

如）我用刀子不小心割傷自己。

因為重視 - 當你想強調自己 “I”

如）我烤這個蛋糕嘍！

BY MYSELF

BY MYSELF表達的是單獨的意思：

我自己出去吃晚飯了。

 

Using I, me, my, mine, and myself correctly

正確使用I, Me, My, Mine and Myself

My son talk to me: “Why you reading a story many times, but you havn’t study grammar? So, your English always poor.” I think a long time, Why? I decide study grammar immediately. Today I study “Using I, me, my, mine and myself correctly.”

If you’re confused by the words I, me, my, mine, and myself, you’re not alone! In this lesson, you will learn the difference between them and when to use the right one.

I and ME

I is the subject – the person who does the action in the sentence. Only use “I” when you are referring to yourself in the subject of the sentence. In other words, you are the one taking action.

I gave John the book.

Me is the object – the person who receives the action in the sentence. The pronoun “me” should be used when someone else will perform the action to, or for, you.

John gave me the book.

OR: John gave the book to me.

When there are more than one subject or object people do get a little confused , so we will see how to use it correctly

John and I saw Jane at the party.

John = subject

I = subject

Jane= object

The teacher called Jim and me.

The teacher = subject

Jim = object

me = object

MY and MINE

Use my before the word, and use mine after the word.

Remember my is always followed by noun where as mine replaces the noun.

John is my friend.

John is a friend of mine.

Those are my glasses.

Those glasses are mine.

 

MYSELF

The pronoun “myself” should only be used when you are performing the action on yourself. No one else can do anything to yourself.

The word myself is used in two cases:

When you do something to yourself

Eg) I accidentally cut myself with the knife.

For emphasis - when you want to emphasize the “I”

Eg) I baked this cake myself!

BY MYSELF

The expression by myself means alone:

I went out to dinner by myself.
