许多语法书讲解指示代词的章节时认为such为指示代词,有些把so也划到这个章节,有些给so起了一个新的名字:替代词。那么问题来了
1. so如何叫比较合适?
2. 替代词与指示代词、不定代词之间有什么样的关系呢?(不定代词当中的one, ones, that, those也往往被称为替代词。)
So作为替代词,词典的释义为:used to refer to something that has just been stated or suggested。
1 它可以替代前面提及的一个分句:
“Has she left?” “I believe so.” [so替代she has left]
“Is it true?” “I think/hope so.” [so替代it is true]
I didn't like the dress and told her so. [so替代 I didn't like it]
I might be late. If so [so替代I am late], please start the meeting without me.
2 so也可以与系词be合用,so替代前面提及的表语:
“You were late this morning.” “So I was—what's it to you?” [so替代 late]
“Today is the first day of winter.” “Why, so it is.” [so替代the first day of winter]
3 so还可以与实意动词do合用,替代前面提及的动词+宾语或/和状语:
If you have not yet returned the form, please do so immediately. [do so替代 return it]
He said he would sell his car, and he did so three days later. [did so替代 sold his car]
4 so也可以用作指示代词,意为this,为非正式用法。例如:
You can fold the paper like so. [so= this]
