曾看到这样一个句子:
I am so very sad that he is having cancer now.
请问是不是错误句子?如果有错误,如何改正?
被so强调的形容词或副词是可以被very修饰的,只是用的较少而已。所以这里没有错误。错误在于have错误的使用了进行时态。have表示一个人患有某种疾病时为静态动词,不用进行时。例如《韦氏高阶》对have这个意义的释义和例句:
not used in progressive tenses : to experience or be affected by (an illness or injury)
I have a cold.
My uncle has diabetes.
She has a broken leg.
这个句子改为一般现在时即可:
I am so very sad that he has cancer now.
