可以看出,英語是一種不合邏輯的語言。
Daytime(白天)是一個詞:night-time或night time(夜晚)則不是一個詞。需要加連字符或者空格。
例句:
During the daytime he has to work and at night he must take care of their children.
他白天需要工作,晚上還要照顧孩子。
The government announced a night-time curfew.
政府宣布實行宵禁。
很多時候還可以不加“time”
例句:
During the day he has to work.
他白天需要工作。
These days everyone is working both day and night to finish the job on time.
這幾天大家都在日以繼夜地忙著完成任務。
