有一个句子we differentiate between fruit and vegetable based on the parts of the plant we eat.汉语字幕意思是我们根据所吃植物的部位来区分水果还是蔬菜。
这句话中based的词性我有些疑惑,如果说是动词,那这句话中就有differentiate和base两处动词了,应该不合语法。如果说是形容词,那形容词又不能修饰前面动词differentiate。请老师帮助分析这个问题。
We differentiate between fruit and vegetable based on the parts of the plant we eat.
based on the parts of the plant we eat 是过去分词短语作方式状语,修饰谓语动词 differentiate。
又如:
We can't make a decision based on hearsay and guesswork. (作状语)
我们不能根据传言和猜测作决定。
