elder和older的区别

日期:2019年11月29日 分类:优美句子

elder和older都是old的比较级,在用法上有所区别。

1.elder表示“前辈的”、“年纪较长的”,主要用于表示家庭成员之间的长幼关系;older则不限于此。例如:

My younger daughter is 3 years old and my elder daughter is 5 years old。我的小女儿3岁,大女儿5岁。

Tom is two years older than I.汤姆比我年长两岁。

2.elder在句中只用作定语,不作表语;older两者皆可。例如: 

His elder son got married last week. 他的长子是上星期结婚的。

I think his mother is older. 我认为他的母亲年龄比较大。

The older man in the photo is my grandfather。照片中年纪较大的男的是我祖父。  

3.elder只能用来指人;older既可修饰人,也可修饰修物。例如:

My elder brother joined the army when he was only fifteen.我哥哥年仅15负就参了军。

This dog is older than any other dogs here.这条狗在这里是最老的一条。

由elder引申出来的elderly一个形容词,“较老的”,elderly是委婉用语,意为上了年纪的,the elderly泛指老人。

老年人一般用elderly man,而不用old man显得没有礼貌。

His mother's elder brother is an elderly man now.他母亲的哥哥现在已经是一个老年人了。

My elder brother
