I don't want to spend my life in some muddy village miles from anywhere.
miles from anywhere 怎么理解?为什么不是miles away from anywhere ?另外,这里的anywhere怎么理解含义?不明白。
从句子反推,这里 miles from anywhere整体是一个介词短语作后置定语,修饰VILLAGE,其中Miles是一个看成程度类修饰语修饰后面的from anywhere,这种用法MILES在传统语法看成程度状语,但是现在语法将这类看为了词组级别修饰语,让层次更鲜明了。这类还可以修饰形容词,副词短语等等。 如3 meters long, miles away,无论如何MILES就是一个修饰语,整体短语词性受限于后面中心词。
