有好多網友inbox問我Present Perfect Tense (現在完成式)同Simple Present Tense (簡單現在式)既問題,我講多少少:
Present Perfect Tense 現在完成式
呢個Tense 用於由以前發生,但冇指明特定時間(i.e. yesterday, last week...),又對現在有關連既事。例如 「I have had everything (all these accomplishments). 我已經擁有一切(成就)」。呢度Have係auxiliary verb(助動詞);had係main verb(主動詞),以past participle(過去分詞)形式出現。係呢一句Present Perfect Tense帶出「已經擁有」呢個時間性。Already呢個adverb(副詞)可以配合使用於Present Perfect Tense,強調「某事比另一件事早發生」,例如「 I would not need to be more successful when I have already had everything. 當我早就擁有一切,我唔需要更成功。」
Simple Present Tense 簡單現在式
一般用於陳述事實、表達概念。例如 「I have everything. 我擁有一切。」Have 就係main verb。Already 亦可以用喺Simple Present Tense,喺度表達「有野比起預期早左發生」,或者「一啲發生左但係你預期之外嘅事」。例如「 I already have everything. 我擁有一切(感覺早左或者意料之外)」。
另外一個問題:用左Present Perfect Tense仲可以加”at this moment”?
我嘅答案係翻譯時要睇當事人想表達嘅原意。我想保留當事人想強調嘅意思,以及我想帶出”This instant”同”At this moment”既分別。雖然中文嘅譯法大家都係叫「而家」,但係意思有少少分別。”This instant”通常配合Imperatives(命令式動詞)使用,好似我片中例子:「Shut up this instant!而家(即刻)收聲!」呢個「而家」帶有「即刻去做某件事」嘅意思;At this moment 既而家就淨係「而家」,當刻嘅意思。基於上述原因,最後我決定加個逗號隔一隔帶有Present Perfect Tense既句子,加”at this moment”喺最後。
PS: 我完全理解口語英文變化好多,我自己講英文嘅時候都會犯正統文法上嘅錯誤。我當初分享英文片段,就係想借生活化嘅題材,以不同嘅表達方式去引起大家興趣,因為解釋英文嘅時候,contextualization 將語言運用搬到去生活上既情景,對理解語言有好大幫助。香港嘅學習英文模式就係缺乏真實嘅context情景去應用同理解,學生學grammar只係機械式不斷造句,睇passage只係睇textbooks作出黎既文章,一嚟欠缺真實性,二嚟邊個會有興趣睇?我希望每一次嘅討論都可以令你有動力去查下、去了解英文嘅運用,甚至問下身邊既人:「應該點講?」。Thank you.
