摘要
所谓分裂不定式,就是在动词不定式的符号to和不定式原形之间插入了副词。分裂不定式是英语惯用法的敏感问题,不用则已,用则可能引起非议。虽然分裂不定式已有几百年的历史,但时至今日仍有人对它怀有戒心。有些人竟认为它是对英语的败坏摧残。
The split infinitive is a sensitive problem in English usage. Some people even refer to splitting the infinitive as a mutilation of the English language. But on the other hand split infinitives are extremely common in everyday conversation and in informal writing. What then should be the best advice to Chinese learners of English?
