over副词"重复"的用法疑问

问题:两遍two times over可以说成over two times吗? 

缘起:柯林斯中over的adv再一次用法例句: Dave, the pianist, played it over a couple of times. 演奏钢琴的戴夫将这支曲子反复弹了两三遍。 看样子这个over似乎是adv"多余"而不是adv"重复",老师们怎么认为?

网友注意:英语的“两次;两遍;两倍”,通常用twice,不用two times。这是简练原则。

twice over = twice,加上over 表示强调,没有增加次数。例如:

He had to have everything spelled out twice over for him.  

他不得不把所有事项都对他详细说明了两次。

来自柯林斯例句

You've bought enough paint to paint the house twice over!  

你买的颜料足够把这所房子粉刷两次用的!

来自辞典例句


Dave, the pianist, played it over a couple of times. 

这个句子,over 是修饰played 的,表示“反复弹奏”,不是修饰后面的 a couple of times。

又如:read it over 再读一遍
