💌 Dear Mr Dad,
Remember this precious moment 11 years ago? Remember all those beautiful years we had working together side by side? Remember going back and forth to London every week? Remember staying up till late to meet the deadline? Remember the joy we had after all the hard work? Remember your photography & design studio in the heart of Birmingham city centre?
Ohhh how I miss the good old days! To be able to work long hours. To be able to walk tirelessly. To be able to see flawlessly. To be able to breathe without pain…
Thank you for giving me years of priceless experiences that I wouldn’t trade for anything else in this world. And yes, if you asked me, I would do it all over again with you and only you. But as for now, even to be able to wake up every morning, still breathing, and to see your face next to me is more than enough for me…
Maybe I will never be that same energetic person ever again but I promise you that for as long as The Almighty allows me to get out of bed every morning, I will keep on supporting every step of yours until my last breath. And let’s finish #TheOldForgeCottage - our dream house project - together…
Beyond blessed,
Mrs Mom
#wisemomsays
p/s: Thanks to Facebook memories for reminding us of what a wonderful life we had…
up till now 在 Re: [文法] "直到現在"的正確用法?? - 看板Eng-Class - 批踢踢 ... 的推薦與評價
還須各位指教
※ 引述《elbows ( X_X)》之銘言：
: until now 有直到現在的意思
: 但我知道使用until now 時也會有改變的意思
: 所以說 We have been the best friends until now (X)
: 我們是最好的朋友直到現在(將來還會是)
until now是『到目前為止都是』，但未來就不不知道了（未來不討論嗎？）
: 這樣是錯誤的 會有以後就不是最好的朋友的意思
: 所以如果要正確表達將來還會是話
: 是這樣寫嗎 ?? So far, we have been the best friends.
我記得這種情況是：未來不討論
so far和until now都是一樣的
: 還是有另外正確的寫法呢?
: 另外這句 The dream has been planting in my mind until now. 應該也是的錯的吧
: 要如何改寫才正確呢?
: 感激不盡!!
我查了Longman English Grammar後面的索引
till now (adverb) with present perfect 在9.25.1
The present perfect + adverbials that suggest 'up to the present'
We do not use the present perfect with adverbs relating to past time
(ago, yesterday, etc.) [> 9 18, App 48].
Adverbial phrases like the following are used with the present perfect
because they clearly connect the past with the present moment:
before (now), It's the first time..., so far, so far this morning,
up till now, up to the present.
略...
例句：
I've planted fourteen rose-bushes so far this morning.
She's never eaten a mango before. Have you ever eaten a mango?
It's the most interesting book I've ever read.
Olga hasn't appeared on TV before now.
以上四例句感覺起來都是『到目前為止』
那未來呢？是『單純不討論』還是『一定會不一樣』？
第一句：從早上到現在都在從事農作 (未來不討論)
第二句：從沒吃過 (未來不討論)
第三句：目前為止唸過最有趣的書 (未來不一樣了，因為現在唸了一本很有趣的)
第四句：Olga目前為止都沒上過電視，但是現在在電視上 (未來一定不一樣)
會不會這一方面的文法本來就不會探討的這麼詳細？
對了，在索引查until now會連到這一頁，但是上面那兩行藍字還是沒有"until now"
until now是該列在上面的
