almost nearly mostly mainly 的区别
1.almost=very nearly,表示"几乎、差不多",常可互换使用.例如:
It's almost/nearly ten o'clock.差不多10点了.
He fell off a tree and almost/nearly died.他从树上摔下来,几乎丧命.
析:从事实角度讲,almost比nearly的差距更小.从说话人的心理角度来讲,almost暗含"还有距离",nearly暗含"似无差别".比如上面的例句,第一句用almost比nearly反映出时间更接近10点,但用almost反映出说话人的心理活动是"还差一点儿才到10点",若用nearly则反映出说话人的心理活动是"可以说已到10点了".第2句也是这样:用almost反映出说话人的心理活动是"还活着";用nearly反映出说话人的心理活动是"快死了".所以用almost,还是使用nearly,说话人的心理活动是关键..
