右侧笔记支持独立滚动。边听名师连读拆解,边对照右侧的语法事实与统计数据笔记。

say 说话(接说话的内容) tell 告诉(接双宾语可以接人+物)
say something / anything / nothing tell us a story、tell you a secret
say so / no more tell the truth / lies
say goodbye / a good word tell the difference(辨别) / the time
在表示“说,讲”时,say 后面不跟间接宾语(人)。如果一定要指明,则用“to +名词/代词”。表示“道别,诵读(祈祷),背诵”等含义时用 say 而不能用 tell。say 有“表达(思想、意见等)”、“据说”含义, tell 则没有。 在表示“说,讲”时,tell 后面可以跟双宾语。tell 经常用于表示“讲(实话,谎话,秘密等)”。tell可以表示“辨别,分辨”,say 则不可以。在英国英语中,tell the time(美语为 tell time)表示根据钟表等。
say 和tell 后面跟 so 时含义不一样
  • I told you so! 我告诉过你是这样的!(用于情况被证实之后)
  • Who says so? 谁这么说的?
  • I say so. 我这么说的。

If you say so, I suppose it' s true.
