威威老師的文法特快車:連接詞 (Conjunctions)

課程導航


哈囉各位同學!我是威威老師。

英文老師最常在你的作文上畫紅線的地方,連接詞絕對排前三名。為什麼?

因為中文寫「雖然…但是…」「因為…所以…」是天經地義,但英文 ❌ 雙連接詞共存就是大忌諱。

英文裡,連接詞像獨佔欲很強的人——「有我就沒你」。一個句子裡只能有一個主軸連接詞。學會這個原則,你的英文作文會立刻提升一個等級。

今天威威老師帶你拆解英文連接詞的 7 大幫派,外加 5 種雙胞胎搭配和倒裝句型。

繫好安全帶 🚂


課前快問 (Pre-Quiz) — 複習 04 介系詞

  1. I am good at ____ (play) basketball.
  2. She was born ____ 2010 ____ a small town.
  3. I look forward to ____ (hear) from you.

一、連接詞 = 句子的「膠水」

英文連接詞(Conjunctions)的工作只有一個:把兩個東西黏在一起。它能黏的東西包括:

  • 兩個單字:apples and oranges
  • 兩個片語:on the table or under the chair
  • 兩個子句:I came because you called.
  • 兩段話的邏輯:It rained**; however,** I went out.

連接詞分兩大幫派

幫派英文角色例子
對等連接詞Coordinating兩個平起平坐的好朋友and, but, or, so…
從屬連接詞Subordinating主子句帶從屬子句(老闆 + 下屬)because, although, when, if…

💡 威威核心比喻:

  • 對等連接詞 = 平輩(兩個地位平等的好朋友手牽手)
  • 從屬連接詞 = 上下級(主管帶部下,主子句是主管,從屬子句是部下)

二、對等連接詞 — FANBOYS 七人組

🎵 超經典記憶口訣:FANBOYS(粉絲)

字母連接詞意思例句
Ffor因為He left, for he was tired.
Aand和、且I like coffee and tea.
Nnor也不He can’t sing, nor can he dance.
Bbut但是She is rich but lonely.
Oor或、否則Tea or coffee?
Yyet然而She tried, yet failed.
Sso所以It rained, so I stayed home.

2-1 主力四天王:and / but / or / so

連接詞功能例句
and加上I like apples and bananas.
but轉折He is rich but lonely.
or選擇 / 否則Stay or leave? / Hurry, or you’ll be late.
so結果It was late, so I left.

2-2 進階三兄弟:for / yet / nor

連接詞功能例句細節
for補充原因(=because)He was happy, for he had won.較正式,常放兩子句中間
yet轉折(=but,但出乎意料)She studied hard, yet she failed.比 but 多「沒想到」感
nor也不He doesn’t like coffee, nor does he like tea.後面要倒裝

🚨 nor 的特殊性:後面要倒裝! ✅ He can’t sing, nor can he dance. ❌ He can’t sing, nor he can dance. 公式:nor + 助動詞/be + 主詞 + 動詞

三、配對連接詞 — 雙胞胎組合

配對意思例句
both A and BA 和 B 都Both Tom and Jerry like cheese.
either A or B要嘛 A 要嘛 BEither you or he must go.
neither A nor BA 和 B 都不Neither Tom nor Jerry likes cats.
not only A but also B不僅 A 而且 BShe is not only smart but also kind.

🎯 配對是固定的:either 配 or,neither 配 nor,not only 配 but also——不能亂配!

3-1 黃金規則:就近原則 (Proximity Rule)

當 either…or / neither…nor 連接兩個主詞時,動詞跟最靠近的那個主詞一致!

句子動詞跟誰?動詞
Neither he nor I ___ wrong.跟 I(最近)am
Neither I nor he ___ wrong.跟 he(最近)is
Either you or she ___ to go.跟 she(最近)has
Either she or you ___ to go.跟 you(最近)have

💎 威威白話:「動詞看右邊那個主詞的臉色!」 不管你是誰,動詞只跟最靠近的人「對齊」。

3-2 not only…but also 的倒裝句型

Not only 放在句首時,後面要倒裝!

一般句序倒裝句序
She not only sings but also dances.Not only does she sing, but she also dances.
He is not only smart but also kind.Not only is he smart, but he is also kind.

倒裝公式:Not only + 助動詞/be + 主詞 + 動詞, but + 主詞 + also + 動詞

🎯 配對連接詞即時練習(5 題)

1. Fill in: ______ Tom ______ Jerry like cheese.(兩個都喜歡)

2. Choose: Neither he nor his sisters ______ at home. (A) is (B) was (C) are (D) has

3. 改錯:Either you and he must come.

4. Translate: 「她不僅聰明而且善良。」(Use not only…but also)

5. Choose the correct inversion of: “He not only writes novels but also paints pictures.” (A) Not only he writes novels, but he also paints pictures. (B) Not only does he write novels, but he also paints pictures. (C) Not only writes he novels, but he also paints pictures. (D) Not only does he writes novels, but he also paints pictures.

四、從屬連接詞 — 副詞子句的引導者

從屬連接詞用來引導副詞子句(從屬子句),修飾主要子句。

💡 主要子句 = 故事主軸;副詞子句 = 背景資訊(什麼時候 / 為什麼 / 在什麼條件下 / 雖然如何)。

4-1 時間連接詞

連接詞意思例句
when當…時When I arrived, he was sleeping.
while在…期間While I was eating, he called.
before在…之前Wash hands before you eat.
after在…之後After he finished, he left.
until / till直到…I waited until he came.
since自從…I’ve lived here since I was born.
as soon as一…就…As soon as I saw him, I waved.
once一旦Once you learn it, you’ll never forget.
the moment / instant一…的瞬間The moment he entered, everyone cheered.

💎 when vs. while:

  • when:時間「點」(瞬間)
  • while:時間「線」(一段持續期間,常配進行式)

4-2 原因連接詞

連接詞意思強度例句
because因為最強I stayed home because it rained.
since既然 / 因為中等Since you’re here, let’s start.
as因為最弱As it was late, we left.
now that既然中等Now that you’re 18, you can vote.

💎 強度差別: because 是「直接原因」(強調因果);since/as 是「順帶提到的原因」(讀者已知或顯而易見)。

4-3 讓步連接詞

連接詞意思例句
although / though雖然Although he is poor, he is happy.
even though即使Even though it rained, we went out.
even if即使(虛擬)Even if you apologize, I won’t forgive you.
while雖然(對比)While I agree with you, I have concerns.
whereas然而(對比)He likes tea, whereas I like coffee.

4-4 條件連接詞

連接詞意思例句
if如果If it rains, I’ll stay.
unless除非(= if not)Unless you study, you’ll fail.
as long as只要As long as you try, I support you.
provided (that)假如Provided that you finish, you can go.
in case萬一Take an umbrella in case it rains.

🎯 unless = if not 的替換——學測常考!

  • Unless you study → = If you don’t study
  • Unless he comes → = If he doesn’t come

4-5 目的與結果連接詞

連接詞意思例句
so that以便Study hard so that you can pass.
in order that為了He left early in order that he could catch the train.
so + adj/adv + that如此…以至於He was so tired that he fell asleep.
such + (a/an) + adj + N + that如此…的…以至於It was such a good book that I read it twice.

🎯 從屬連接詞即時練習(5 題)

1. Choose: ______ I was eating dinner, my phone rang. (A) When (B) While (C) After (D) Until

2. Choose: ______ you call me, I’ll come immediately. (A) Until (B) Unless (C) As soon as (D) Although

3. 改錯:Although she is tired, but she keeps working.

4. Translate using “unless”: “If you don’t study, you’ll fail the exam.”

5. Choose: Wait here ______ I come back. (A) since (B) until (C) when (D) before

五、so…that vs. such…that — 終極對決

這是學測超高頻考點!

句型結構例句
so + adj/adv + thatso + 形容詞/副詞 + thatHe is so smart that everyone likes him.
such + (a/an) + adj + N + thatsuch + (a/an) + 形容詞 + 名詞 + thatHe is such a smart boy that everyone likes him.

💡 記法:

  • so 後面接形容詞/副詞(沒有名詞)
  • such 後面接名詞(前面有形容詞修飾)

對錯比較

對 ✅錯 ❌
It was so cold that I shivered.It was such cold that I shivered.
It was such cold weather that I shivered.It was so cold weather that I shivered.
She speaks so quickly that I can’t follow.She speaks such quickly that…
She is such a kind person that everyone loves her.She is so a kind person that…

so + many / much / few / little + 名詞

⚠️ 例外!如果名詞前是 many/much/few/little,要用 so(不是 such)!

  • so many people that… ✓
  • so much money that… ✓
  • so few chances that… ✓

🎯 so/such 即時練習(5 題)

1. Choose: He was ______ tired ______ he fell asleep instantly. (A) so / that (B) such / that (C) very / that (D) too / to

2. Choose: It was ______ a difficult test ______ many students failed. (A) so / that (B) such / that (C) very / that (D) too / that

4. 改錯:She is so kind girl that everyone loves her.

5. Translate: 「天氣這麼冷,我都不想出門。」(Use such…that)

六、連接副詞 (Conjunctive Adverbs)

連接副詞是「連接詞 + 副詞的混血兒」——它連接兩個句子,但不算正式的連接詞,所以標點要不一樣!

6-1 標點規則

類型標點例子
對等連接詞 (and, but, so)逗號 + 連接詞It rained**, so** I left.
連接副詞 (however, therefore)分號 + 連接副詞 + 逗號It rained**; however,** I went out.
連接副詞(另一種寫法)句號 + 連接副詞 + 逗號It rained**. However,** I went out.

🚨 連接副詞不能只用逗號! ❌ It rained**, however,** I went out. → 這是 comma splice(逗號接兩個獨立子句)! ✅ It rained**; however,** I went out.

6-2 常見連接副詞

功能連接副詞對等連接詞「正式版」例句
轉折however= but(正式版)I tried; however, I failed.
因果therefore= so(正式版)He studied; therefore, he passed.
因果thus= so(正式版)She practiced; thus, she improved.
因果consequently= so(正式版)He overslept; consequently, he was late.
遞增moreover= and(正式版)The food is cheap; moreover, it’s tasty.
遞增furthermore= and(正式版)He is smart; furthermore, he is kind.
遞增in addition= and(正式版)She speaks English; in addition, she speaks French.
對比on the other hand= while/whereasHe likes tea; on the other hand, I like coffee.
對比in contrast= howeverA is small; in contrast, B is huge.
條件otherwise= or elseStudy hard; otherwise, you’ll fail.
時間meanwhile= whileI was studying; meanwhile, he was sleeping.

🎯 連接副詞即時練習(5 題)

1. Choose: He didn’t study hard; ______, he passed the exam. (A) therefore (B) however (C) moreover (D) so

2. 改錯:It was raining, however, we still played outside.

3. Fill in: “The hotel was expensive. ______, it was quite uncomfortable.”(增加負評)

4. Choose: Practice every day; ______, you won’t improve. (A) however (B) otherwise (C) therefore (D) moreover

5. Translate: 「他很有錢;然而,他並不快樂。」(Use however with proper punctuation)

七、考試陷阱大整理

學測連接詞考題的 6 大陷阱

陷阱 1:because / so 不共存(中文邏輯造成)

❌ Because it rained, so I stayed home. ✅ Because it rained, I stayed home. ✅ It rained, so I stayed home.

陷阱 2:although / but 不共存(中文邏輯造成)

Although he is tired, but he keeps going. ✅ Although he is tired, he keeps going. ✅ He is tired, but he keeps going.

陷阱 3:so vs. such 混淆

so + adj/adv + that such + (a/an) + adj + N + that 例外:so many/much/few/little + N

陷阱 4:unless ≠ if(unless = if not)

Unless you study, you’ll fail. = If you don’t study, you’ll fail.

陷阱 5:either/or, neither/nor 的就近原則

動詞跟最靠近的主詞一致!

陷阱 6:連接副詞的標點

連接副詞前面是分號(或句號),不是逗號!

學習科學小知識:意義連結 (Meaning-Based Encoding)

認知科學發現,有意義的訊息無意義的訊息好記 5–10 倍。FANBOYS 七人組之所以好記,正是因為「FANBOYS = 粉絲」這個有意義的詞。

應用:

  • because/so 不共存 → 想像兩人搶一個位置(一個就夠)。
  • although/but 不共存 → 想像「雖然」和「但是」是同個概念,重複了。
  • so + adj / such + N → 想像 so「這麼」配形容詞,such「這樣的」配名詞。

把抽象規則變成故事或圖像,記憶就從「死背」升級成「內化」。
