Their、there 和 they're 是英语写作中最常见的错误之一。它们的读音一模一样,所以拼写检查不一定能发现。下面教你每次都选对。
简短回答 #
| 单词 | 含义 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| their | 他们的(属于他们的) | Their car is red. |
| there | 那里,或用于 “there is/are”(有) | Put the box over there. |
| they're | they are 的缩写 | They're coming tomorrow. |
Their:属于他们的东西 #
Their 是表示所属的词,和 my、your、our 一样。它后面总是跟着一个名词,也就是属于他们的那样东西。
- The students forgot their homework.(学生们忘了带作业。)
- Have you met their new dog?(你见过他们新养的狗吗?)
There:地点或存在 #
There 指一个地点,或者用来引出“某物存在”。
- I left my keys there.(我把钥匙落在那里了。)
- There are three mistakes in this sentence.(这句话里有三个错误。)
- Is there a coffee shop nearby?(附近有咖啡店吗?)
They're:they are #
They're 是 they are 的缩写,撇号代替了省略掉的字母 a。
- They're late again. → They are late again.
- I think they're right. → I think they are right.
快速记忆小窍门 #
- 试着换成 “they are”。 如果句子依然通顺,就用 they're。
- 注意 “there” 里藏着 “here”。 这两个词都和地点有关:here(这里)和 there(那里)。
- 注意 “their” 里藏着 “heir”。 heir 是“继承人”,继承人拥有东西,而 their 正是表示“拥有”。
常见错误 #
| 错误 | 正确 |
