| 单词 | each other |
| 释义 | each other彼此 each other each other pron.（代词）Each the other. Used to indicate that a relationship or an action is reciprocal among the members of the set referred to by the antecedent:互相：各自。用来表示先行词，指一组人之间的相互关系或行动：The boys like each other.男孩们互相都很喜欢用法:It is often maintained thateach other should be used to denote a reciprocal relation between two entities, withone another reserved for more than two: thusThe twins dislike each other but The triplets dislike one another. Sixty-four percent of the Usage Panel says that they follow this rule in their own writing.But it should be pointed out that many reputable writersfrom Johnson onward have ignored the ruleand that the use ofeach other for more than two, or ofone another for two, cannot be considered incorrect. In particular, there are contexts in whicheach other and one another are subtly different in meaning. When speaking of an ordered series of events or stages,one another is the preferred form. Thus the sentenceThe waiters followed one another into the room was preferred by 73 percent of the Usage Panel to the sentenceThe waiters followed each other into the room. · Each other should not be used as the subject of a clause in writing.Instead ofWe always know what each other is thinking, one should writeEach of us knows what the other is thinking. · The possessive forms ofeach other and one another are written each other's and one another's: 人们经常认为each other 应当用于表达两个个体间的相互关系， 而one another 表示两个以上的个体， 因此双胞胎各自不喜欢对方 而 三胞胎各自不喜欢对方。 64%的用法使用小组成员认为他们在写作中遵守这条规则。但应当指出的是许多著名作家，从约翰逊开始就忽略了这个规则，而用each other 来表示二个以上的人或物， 或用one another 表示两个也不能算错误。 尤其是在一些上下文中each other 和 one another 在意义上有着微妙的差别。 当提及事件或阶段的有序系列时，one another 是更好的选择。 因而句子侍者一个接一个地进入房间 得到了73%的用法使用小组成员的认可， 而不接受侍者依次进入房间 的说法。 Each other 在书面中不能用作从句的主语。不能说我们时刻都知道各自正想什么 ， 而应该说我们各自都知道对方正在想什么 。 each other 和 one another 的物主形式分别为 each other's 和 one another's： They had forgotten one another's (not &I{one anothers'} ) &I{names.} 他们忘记了对方的（不是 one anothers' ) 姓名。 |
