till和until的区别是什么？

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

until和till的区别：中文意思不同、词性及用法不同、侧重点不同。until可作介词和连词，含义有到…时、直到…为止，是till的强调形式，用以加强语气；till作介词、连词、名词和动词，含义有直到、交款处、耕作等，一般用于普通语态。扩展资料一、until的中文含义及用法介绍until作为介词时，用于肯定句，意为直到…为止，表示某一动作或状态一直持续，这时主句的谓语动词是延续性动词。用于否定句时表示的是一种持续的`否定状态，否定状态一结束，肯定动作或状态就开始。例句：Let'swaituntiltherainstops.咱们等雨停了吧。UntilshespokeIhadn'trealizedshewasn'tEnglish.直到她开口说话我才知道她不是英格兰人。UntilnowIhavealwayslivedalone.直到现在，我一直独自生活。Hecontin[84202.c o m.cn]

Answer 2

till与until同义, 但在主句前的从句或短语中, 通常用until。例如:

Until then, I knew nothing at all about it.
在那时以前, 我对这事一无所知。

用法
USAGE: In most contexts, till and until have the same meaning and are interchangeable. The main difference is that till is generally considered to be more informal than until. Until occurs much more frequently than till in writing. In addition, until tends to be the natural choice at the beginning of a sentence: until very recently, there was still a chance of rescuing the situation. Interestingly, while it is commonly assumed that till is an abbreviated form of until (the spellings 'till and 'til reflect this), till is in fact the earlier form. Until appears to have been formed by the addition of Old Norse und (‘as far as’) several hundred years after the date of the first records for till.
