He returned from the war a broken man. 他从战场上回来,整个人都垮了
请问这句话中的a broken man是怎么回事? 是什么语法现象呢?
有没有其他的例句呢?
这是名词作状语,表示谓语动作发生时主语的身份。句子等于:
When he returned from the war, he was a broken man.
这类似于形容词作状语。形容词作状语,表示谓语动作发生时主语所处的状态。
He died young. = When he died, he was young.
He died a hero. = When he died, he was a hero.
