adj.(形容詞)

late的基本意思是“晚的”,可指與規(guī)定的、預(yù)期的或慣常的時(shí)間相比“晚的”“遲的”,也可指在事物本身發(fā)展過(guò)程中或某一時(shí)間單位(如年月)“晚期的”“后期的”。作這兩種解釋時(shí)可在句中作定語(yǔ),表語(yǔ),可用于比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)。late還可指在時(shí)間或順序上的“新近的”“晚期的”。late用在頭銜、人名前可作“已退職〔休〕,新近故去的,前任的”解,這時(shí)其前通常須加the,在句中常用作定語(yǔ),沒(méi)有比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)形式。

表示“做某事遲了”, late后接(in+) v -ing 。如果動(dòng)名詞后面有賓語(yǔ), in+ v -ing 形式則可用with代替。在口語(yǔ)中, late可直接跟動(dòng)名詞,省略in。

late用作表語(yǔ)時(shí)后接for表示“遲于規(guī)定時(shí)間做某事”“趕不上做某事”;后接at表示“遲于規(guī)定時(shí)到達(dá)某地”;后接“ in + v -ing ”表示“做某事遲了”;后接of表示“從前”,指從前居住的地方或某人參加的某種組織、協(xié)會(huì)等。

adv.(副詞)

late用作副詞表示“晚”“遲”,指遲于規(guī)定〔預(yù)期〕時(shí)刻,作此解時(shí)沒(méi)有比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)。late還可表示“末期地”,指到達(dá)或接近某事物的后端。

as late as后跟年月日時(shí),不再加介詞。

late用于時(shí)間時(shí),表示“不久前”。

adj.(形容詞)

late, latter

這兩個(gè)詞的共同意思是“較晚的”“較后的”。其區(qū)別是：

1.late指在一個(gè)具體時(shí)間之后;而latter指一段時(shí)間或一個(gè)時(shí)期的“后一半的”“接近終了的”,還可以指在時(shí)間或順序上的“后者的”“近來(lái)的”。例如:

She returned in the late afternoon.她下午很晚才返回來(lái)。

He mentioned it in the latter part of his speech.他在演講的后面提到了它。

2.late只能用于時(shí)間;latter則除了可以用于時(shí)間外,還可以用于順序。例如:

The train was ten minutes late.那趟火車(chē)晚了10分鐘。

Of the pig and the cow, the latter is more valuable.豬和牛相比,后者更有價(jià)值。

3.latter只能用于名詞之前作定語(yǔ),而late還可用作表語(yǔ)。

adv.(副詞)

last, latest

這兩個(gè)詞都是late的最高級(jí)。其區(qū)別是：

在正式用法中, last表示“順序上的最后”;而latest則表示“時(shí)間上的最近”。例如:

This is his latest book,I hope it's not his last.這是他最近的著作,我希望這不是他的最后著作。

adj.(形容詞)Have you read Steinway's latest novel?

誤

你讀過(guò)斯坦韋最后的小說(shuō)嗎?

正

你讀過(guò)斯坦韋的最新小說(shuō)嗎?

析

late的最高級(jí)latest的意思是“最新的”“最近的”,而不是“最后的”。
他在晚年退出了政界。

誤

He withdrew from politics in his late years.

正

He withdrew from politics in his later years.

析

當(dāng)表示“晚年”時(shí),常用它的比較級(jí)later。
這件事發(fā)生在60年代后期。

誤

It happened in late 1960s.

正

析

表示“年代”的數(shù)字前面須用the,加late后the也不能省略。

正

Tell him not to be late for the meeting.
他晚到公共汽車(chē)站。

誤

adv.(副詞)湯姆上學(xué)遲到了,第一節(jié)課沒(méi)趕上。

誤

Tom came to school lately and missed the first lesson.

正

析

late的形容詞形式和副詞形式相同, lately并不是late的副詞形式, lately的意思是“最近,近來(lái)”。
