“独立结构”中偶尔能使用代词主格,最好使用名词的主格的疑问?

曹老师:


您好!


麻烦看一下 http://ask.yygrammar.com/q-43134.html


然后:

Of course, nobody was hurt this time, because we had all been to dinner, none of us being novices excepting Hastings, 

and he having been informed by the minister at the time that he invited him that in deference to the English custom he had not provided any dinner.

上文出现了and he having been informed...这里的he就是主格,就是不如用he的名字(假设he=Mike)普遍? 即and MIKE having been informed...


I was so bewitched with her that I couldn't count my hands if they went above a double sequence; and when I struck home I never discovered it, 

and started up the outside row again, and would have lost the game every time, only the girl did the same, 

she being in just my condition, you see; and consequently neither of us ever got out, or cared to wonder why we didn't; 

we only just knew we were happy, and didn't wish to know anything else, and didn't want to be interrupted.

上文出现了she being in just my condition...这里的she就是主格,也不如用she的名字(假设she=Rachel) 普遍?即Rachel being in just my condition...


就是http://ask.yygrammar.com/q-43134.html当时的提问就是现在我说的吧?


非常感谢!

你又不知从哪里得出了一个错误的结论:独立主格结构中的代词主格最好改为名词主格。

语法书告诉你,独立主格结构用主格代词的时候比较少。言外之意是更多的情况下是名词结构作独立主格结构的逻辑主语。但绝对没有代词主格最好改为名词主格的意思,这是你错误的推理。

既然是独立主格结构,代词用主格是自然的事情。只不过这种结构在日常英语中较为少见而已,以致于有些老外(native speakers) 认为是错误的。可见老外也不见得很了解自己的语言。

你的推理的错误在于,当独立主格结构用she/he作了逻辑主语,意味着上下文已经交代了she/he是谁了,此时把she/he改为人名为语法错误,违背了代词的使用原则。例如下句:

Tom is my friend. He/Tom is doctor. 这个句子中he和Tom的选择你是知道的。独立主格结构中逻辑主语的使用适用同一个原则。问题是独立主格结构本身在日常英语中使用较少,多见于文学体裁中和一些正式问题。中国的英语教科书把独立主格结构滥用了,考试成了热门考题。

对你而言,知道独立主格结构的逻辑主语可以是she/I /he 等主格代词形式就行了,不要再纠缠这个问题了。
