用法說明

How is "Anybody" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Anybody"?

anybody vs. anybody else

  • anybody 泛指「任何人」,沒有特定的比較對象或範圍。
  • anybody else 則是在一個特定群體或情境之外「任何其他人」,強調「除了已提及的人之外的任何人」。
  • 在比較句或疑問句中,詢問「還有其他人嗎?」或表示「比其他任何人都...」時,通常需要使用 anybody else
  • 在否定句中,兩者常可互換,但 anybody else 的排除感更強。

EN:Does anybody else have a pen?

翻譯:還有其他人有筆嗎?

EN:She is taller than anybody in her class.

翻譯:她比她班上的任何人都高。

EN:She is taller than anybody else in her class.

翻譯:她比她班上其他任何人都高。

總結建議

在比較或詢問特定群體中的「其他人」時,記得使用 anybody else 來使語意更清晰。
