六、almost和nearly的用法比较
almost和nearly都是英语口语和书面语最常用的词.在学习过程中,许多学生对这两个词的用法并不十分清楚.他们常常把两个词当作绝对的同义词来使用,写出了“Nearly no one came to the party．”这样的错误句子.下面将从句法、语义和语用等方面介绍这两个词在用法上的异同.
一、almost和nearly在句法和语义上的相同点：
1．almost和nearly都可用于表示度量、计数和时间的名词词组前面.eg：
It is almost／nearly ten o'clock．
There were almost／nearly a thousand people there．
注意：almost和nearly与表示时间的名词短语使用时只用在系动词BE的后面.eg我们不能说：They arrived at almost／nearly five o'clock．而应说：It was almost／nearly five o'clock when they arrived．
2．almost和nearly修饰动词时往往表示进度、进程或结果等意义.eg：
I've almost／nearly finished．I almost／nearly smashed the phone in fury．
注意：1)almost和nearly修饰动词时一般置于动词之前.如果句中只有一个助动词,两词都应置于助动词之后；如果有一个以上的助动词,则两词都应置于第一个助动词之后.eg：
Fanny almost／nearly fainted．He has almost／nearly forgotten the time．
I've almost／nearly been drowned in it three times．
2)almost和nearly都可以用在否定动词的前面.eg：
I almost／nearly didn't get up in time．
3．almost和nearly都可以修饰表示绝对意义的形容词.eg:
我们可以说“almost,／nearly perfect／frozen／dead／impossible",但一般不与表示非绝对意义的形容词连用.eg;
我们不说：①The schools are almost／nearly good there．
②The coast was almost／nearly rocky．
以上两例应改为：①The schools are extremely good there．②The coast was very rocky．
4．almost和nearly都可以用在某些时间状语和地点状语的前面.eg：
I used to ride almost／nearly every day／evening．We are almost／nearly there／home．
5．almost和nearly都可以用在限定词“all,every,everybody”等之前.eg：
Almost／nearly al1(of) my friends came to the party．
二、almost和nearly的差异
1．句法上的差异
(1)almost可以用在any及否定词“no, no one, nobody, never, nothing, none, nowhere 等的前面,而nearly则不可以.eg：
There is almost no leadership at all．(不可用nearly)
但是,nearly可以用在否定词not之后,起加强否定陈述的作用,而almost则不可以.eg：
It's not nearly so nice． We don't do nearly enough to help．
(2)almost可以用在以—ly结尾的副词的前面,而nearly则不可以.eg：
She said it almost crossly． Your boss is almost certainly there．
(3)almost可以用在like之前,表示“相似,但不完全相同”或避免说得过于肯定；nearly则不可以.eg：
It made me feel almost like a hostess．
(4)very,so,pretty可以用在nearly前面,却不可用在almost前面.eg：
We were very nearly at the end Of our journey．
...the American who so nearly won the Open Championship in 1970．
I've pretty nearly finished．
2．语义上的细微差异
一般情况下,“It's almost five o'clock．”和“It's nearly five o'clock．”意思大致相同；但有时almost所表示的意思比nearly更接近一些.试比较：
It's nearly ten o'clock．(=perhaps 9．45) .It's almost ten o'clock．(=perhaps 9．57)
3．语用上的差异
almost是一个“纯”程度副词,而nearly则不然,它同时还传达说话人的某种思想情绪和心理状态.eg：
It's nearly eight kilometers to the ZOO．
到动物园还有将近八公里呢.(比设想的要远些)
It cost me nearly twenty pounds．
它花了我将近20英镑呢.(比估计的价格高,嫌贵了一些)
4．国别差异
almost多用在美国英语中,而nearly在英国英语中则更为常见.
总之,almost和nearly两词的用法比较复杂,尤其是它们在语义和语用上的细微差异,更须在上下文或语境中细心揣摩才能体会到.
