Overtime 和 over time 这两种拼法都对,也都是标准英语,但两者的意思截然不同,千万不可混淆。 Overtime 可用作名词或副词,先说名词的情况,overtime 作(不可数) 名词时意为“加班;加班费”,例如: 1. If your normal work week consists of 40 hours of work but you work for an additional 10 hours, then those 10 hours are considered overtime. 译:如果你每周的正常工作时数为 40 小时,但你多工作了 10 小时,那么这 10 小时就被视为加班。 2. You can earn some overtime by working after 6.00 p.m. 译:你可以工作到六点以后,赚些加班费。 除了「加班;加班费」之外,当名词用的 overtime 还意为「(运动比赛的) 延长赛」。例如: As with many NBA rules, the rules governing overtime have evolved over time. 译:与 NBA 许多规定一样,这些规范延长赛的规定与时俱进。 Overtime 当副词时意为「加班地」,通常与动词 do 或 work 连用。例如: Peter and Paul are doing overtime this weekend. 译:彼得和保罗这个周末要加班。 I’m working overtime to get the job done on time. 译:我加班俾准时完成这项工作。 再看 Over time,这是个副词短语,意为「随著时间;渐渐地」,相当于 with time, gradually,用法比较简单,例如: Like weather, climate also changes over time. 译:跟天气一样,气候也会随著时间而改变。 搞清楚了吗?点赞告诉我~ |
