這是最近有人問我的問題,提出來和大家分享8964 copyright protection3588PENANAOjJAGr8bSL 維尼
I am finished / I’m finished 和 I have finished / I’ve finished 意思有沒有不同呢?8964 copyright protection3588PENANAk7eS5Tmte7 維尼
答案是有的,非常不同8964 copyright protection3588PENANA7i4toE7U4q 維尼
I am finished. / I’m finished. 意思是完成了某事8964 copyright protection3588PENANAmuQLyXj31E 維尼
比如東西吃完了、工作做完了、報告寫完了……8964 copyright protection3588PENANAUj8scZpkXl 維尼
此時的 finished 是當形容詞用,表示「完成(某事)的」8964 copyright protection3588PENANAXfIE1csg8x 維尼
另外「人 + be + finished」也有「完蛋了」的意思8964 copyright protection3588PENANA9uYzYhOf8Y 維尼
比如若情侶中一人說 We’re finished. / We’re done. 或 I’m finished / done with you. 意思就是兩人的關係玩完了,要分手了8964 copyright protection3588PENANACkBhW1Xgw7 維尼
闖了大禍之後說 I’m finished. 意思就是「我完(蛋)了」8964 copyright protection3588PENANAJ4Yyj2HUQp 維尼
Patrick is finished in this business. 則是說「派翠克在這行是玩完了/無法繼續在這個行業立足了」8964 copyright protection3588PENANAiX4zf6pYuI 維尼3592Please respect copyright.PENANACEvB2MJA5d
至於 I have finished. / I’ve finished. 則根本是在文法上不對的句子8964 copyright protection3588PENANAzGOLEDhsJd 維尼
因為如果拿它當動詞的話,後面要加受詞8964 copyright protection3588PENANAaQ7ViXfN9p 維尼
比如要說 I have finished dinner. / I have finished my report.8964 copyright protection3588PENANA7ytW7keIMw 維尼
而且用的是 have + p.p. 的句型,是現在完成式8964 copyright protection3588PENANALlqECPcETf 維尼
意思是強調我的確「已經」吃完了晚餐 / 寫完了報告8964 copyright protection3588PENANArQLq0ETt5l 維尼
並非還沒有吃完或寫完8964 copyright protection3588PENANApwJKFRcTRO 維尼
如果雙方都知道是指什麼東西的話,可以在 finished 之後接受格代名詞 it / them8964 copyright protection3588PENANAn0g3ACkVWa 維尼
但還是必須有受詞的8964 copyright protection3588PENANAdi55VWeSRu 維尼
例如要問人家的話,要說 Have you finished it / them?8964 copyright protection3588PENANA8spXLtNVqM 維尼
但仍不可只說 Have you finished?8964 copyright protection3588PENANAO4Zt9hWVpt 維尼3592Please respect copyright.PENANAb66gJHMC1b
我們再來比較一下 Have you finished it? 和 Are you finished with it? 這兩句8964 copyright protection3588PENANAc8hWTStWOH 維尼
首先各位應該要注意到,第二句裡多了個 with8964 copyright protection3588PENANAnO4xIGGZUX 維尼
所以要問別人某事是否完成了,或是否已使用完畢、不再需要某物了8964 copyright protection3588PENANAtjawwugybe 維尼
要用的是 Are you finished with it? 這句8964 copyright protection3588PENANA09y9TUlWYT 維尼
服務生要問客人是否吃好了,盤子可以收了,也是用這句才對8964 copyright protection3588PENANAeq03MAm3H5 維尼
(也可把 with it 省略)8964 copyright protection3588PENANAexPtUsGzJe 維尼
但如果問別人 Have you finished it?8964 copyright protection3588PENANAmBhd0hfNQ5 維尼
則重點又是放在「已經」8964 copyright protection3588PENANAMpcCNkKT0p 維尼
問的人用的是質疑的口氣,想知道的是對方某件事到底做好了沒8964 copyright protection3588PENANA3SNwlC80yj 維尼
比如媽媽看到小孩在玩而沒有在寫功課或唸書8964 copyright protection3588PENANAbryQzvCTDC 維尼
就會問:Have you finished your homework? / Did you finish your homework?8964 copyright protection3588PENANA73ffeqrDs6 維尼
而問 Are you finished with it? 則並沒有質疑的口氣8964 copyright protection3588PENANAeJqElLVdDp 維尼
只是單純詢問事實8964 copyright protection3588PENANAftKzaRR70F 維尼3592Please respect copyright.PENANAYoGLEPKQjd
最後,「be done」這個片語也有完成某事的意思8964 copyright protection3588PENANAZEdngqLlye 維尼
所以 I’m finished. = I’m done.8964 copyright protection3588PENANApmbYniwUz1 維尼
Are you finished with the computer? = Are you done with the computer? (你電腦用好了嗎? / 還要繼續用嗎?)8964 copyright protection3588PENANAJ9DOLnKxx8 維尼
但是它在現在的英語中並沒有「完蛋」的意思8964 copyright protection3588PENANAuTOhLa7tgf 維尼
要講「完蛋」的話要加個介系詞,「be done for」才是「完蛋」8964 copyright protection3588PENANAezQ0AxZBAv 維尼
比如:He is done for. (他完蛋了。)8964 copyright protection3588PENANAhgNGWsMsAK 維尼
另外也可用「be done Ving」表示不會再繼續做此事了8964 copyright protection3588PENANA5R6yczTZ65 維尼
例如:I’m done being nice to her. (我不會再繼續對她好了。)8964 copyright protection3588PENANAEn59YzNclJ 維尼
She’s done helping her brother out. (她不會再繼續幫她哥哥了。)8964 copyright protection3588PENANARsjBaXNp8u 維尼
