when, as, while
when从句动词点动词,持续性动词均可,
as重在表示动作同时发生,伴随进行,
while 从句动词为持续性动词 While I slept, a thief broke in.
whereas, nevertheless, but, however, still, while, yet
这组词都有“但是,可是,然而,而”的意思,其区别是:
whereas表对比,一般可与while互换。
nevertheless指尽管作出完全让步,也不会发生任何影响。
but口语常用词,语气较强,泛指与前述情况相反。
however表转折关系,语气稍弱于but,连接性也弱一些,因而常作插入语。
still语气强,多用于肯定句或疑问句。指尽管作出让步,采取措施或表示反对,但情况仍然如故,无所改变。
while表对比,一般可与whereas换用,但程度弱一些。
yet常用于否定句,语气比still稍强。指不管作出多大努力或让步,仍达不到预期的结果。
