enough的用法总结及例句

enough的用法

一、enough可以作名词、代词,意思是"足够;充分"。作代词可以代替可数名词或不可数名词,在句中作主语或宾语。

例句:

Enough has been said on this subject. 关于这一问题说得已经足够多的了。

No, thanks. I've had enough. 不,谢谢。我已吃饱了。(enough=enough food)

注意:当enough后的名词前有冠词、形容词性物主代词、指示代词或其本身就是代词时,要用介词of。如:

We've had enough of your coldness. 我们已经受够了你的冷漠。

二、enough作形容词,意思是"足够的;充分的",常与for或不定式连用,可以作定语或表语。作定语置于被修饰的名词前后均可,前置时强调enough,后置时强调被修饰词。

例句:

Five men will be quite enough. 五个人就足够了。

三、enough作副词的意思是 "十分地;充分地;足够地;充足地",置于被修饰的形容词或副词之后,常与不定式或介词for连用 ,在句子中作状语,表示程度。

例句:

When they reached the burning building they found that their ladders were not long enough to reach the people who were trapped.

当他们靠近烈火熊熊的大楼时,他们发现梯子不够长,够不着那些被火围困的人。

四、enough作感叹词时意思是"够了;停止;住手;不要再继续了",用以表达不耐烦或恼怒。

例句:

You've been practising the violin all afternoon. Enough! 你整个下午都在练小提琴。够了!

五、用在"主语+cannot...+enough"句型中该句型形式上是否定句型,实际上表达的是肯定意义,意思是"再……也不过分;越……越……"。

例句:

I cannot thank you enough. 我对你感激不尽。(我怎么感谢你都不算过分。)
