1.
____ did he say?
(Whom/What) 選一個答案
答案是What
用Whom不能嗎? 為什麼不能?
What did he say?=他說了什麼?
不會直接用誰來當say的受詞,因為是He said something to somebody.才對。
我在網路上看見這句,覺得有些類似...
Whom did you see yesterday?
I saw David yesterday.
因為是You saw someone yesterday.的關係。
2.
whoever you respect will respect you as well. 求此句的翻譯
為何要用whoever 而不是whomever呢?
=你所尊敬的人也會尊敬你。
本句的whoever = any one whom you respect ...
所以名詞子句裡當受詞的關係代名詞可以寫成Whomever you respect
但口語中常以whoever取代whomever,除非直接在介系詞或動詞之後當受詞。
3.
Give the book to whoever you think needs it. 求此句的翻譯
為何要用whomever 而不是whoever呢?
whoever是名詞子句的主詞,要用主格:whoever ... needs it
you think是插入語,屬作者的加註
這裡當介系詞受詞的是一整個名詞子句,不是whoever。
可改成形容詞子句:Give the book to anyone who needs it.
口語時,除非直接放在介系詞之後,下列狀況的whomever通常用whoever取代:
You can invite whomever you like.
Whomever you may ask, you wil not get the answer.
