从句的语序

从句的语序

英语中从句经常用疑问词（wh-word）引导，

如what, who等，但与疑问词引导的简单句

不同。从句不使用疑问句语序，而使用陈述

句语序，即主语在前，谓语在后的顺序排列。

还应注意，因为从句不使用疑问倒装结构，

所以一般现在时和一般过去时不再用do,

does, did等助动词构成从句结构。试比较一

下句子：

疑问句：What is he doing?

宾语从句：I don’t know what he is doing.

疑问句：When will they go?

主语从句：When they will go hasn’t been

decided.

疑问句：What does he want to know?

表语从句：That’s what she wants to know.

1.常用来引导从句的疑问词有what, when,

where, who, whether, how等，这些疑问词一

般仍保留原有的疑问含义。

She wanted to know when my brother had

visited Paris.

They wondered why we would like to join them.

Could you plea tell me where we are going?

It’s hard for me to tell which one I like better.

How he plays the trick is a cret.

r可以引导主语从句，if 不能引导主

语从句，但是两者都能引导宾语从句。引导

宾语从句时，两者都表示“是否”的意思，

只是if后面不能加or not.

⑴主语从句：

Whether he will accept the job is difficult to say.

Whether you will like it or not has nothing to do

with me.

⑵宾语从句

She wanted to know whether/if my brother had

visited Paris.

They wondered whether/ if we would like to

join them.

, where等若用来引导状语从句，它们

不再是疑问词，也不具有疑问含义，因此它

们的语序亦应为陈述句的语序。

⑴状语从句的语序

When she visited the famous muum in Paris,

she met my brother.

她在巴黎参观那个著名的博物馆时遇见了

我哥哥。

Could you stay for a while where you are now?

你们能在现在的地方留一会儿吗？

⑵定语从句

She still remembers the day when she met my

brother in Paris.

她还记得在巴黎遇见我哥哥的那一天。

Could you plea tell me the place where you

met for the first time?

你能告诉我你们初次相会的地方吗？
