语序：动词 + 宾语、地点、时间；频率副词

英语的基本句子按照 主语 + 动词 + 宾语 的顺序。动词和宾语通常紧挨在一起——不要把 very much、well、every day… 插在它们中间。

• I like coffee very much.

  我非常喜欢咖啡。（不说：I like very much coffee）

• She speaks English very well.

  她英语说得非常好。（不说：speaks very well English）

• I read the news every morning.

  我每天早上看新闻。

💡中文说“我很喜欢”，但英语里 very 不能放在动词前面：“I very like it” 是错的。要说 I really like it、I like it very much，或者 I love it。

句子里既有地点（在哪里？）又有时间（什么时候？多久？多常？）时，通常的顺序是 动词（+ 宾语）+ 地点 + 时间。

• We went to Da Nang last summer.

  我们去年夏天去了岘港。（地点 → 时间）

• My family moved to Hanoi in 2018.

  我们家 2018 年搬到了河内。

• Last year, we went to Hue.

  去年我们去了顺化。（时间也可以放在句首）

方式副词（well、carefully、fast）通常紧跟在动词或宾语后面，在地点和时间之前：She sang beautifully at the party last night.

💡中文习惯把时间放在动词前面（“我去年去了顺化”）。英语里时间可以放在句首，但一般不要把它插在动词和宾语或地点之间：要说 I went to Hue last year，不说 “I went last year to Hue”。

有些简短的副词通常放在句子中间、靠近动词的位置：频率副词（always、usually、often、sometimes、rarely、never），以及 also、already、still、just、even、probably、really。具体位置取决于动词：

• 放在 have to 前面：I always have to get up early.
• Probably 放在否定助动词前面：I probably won't come.（也可以说 I'll probably not come，但不说 “I won't probably come”。）
• Sometimes 和 usually 也可以放在句首：Sometimes I work from home.
• All 和 both 也遵循同样的规则：We all love pho. My sisters are both nurses.
• 在疑问句中，副词放在主语后面：Do you often cook? Have you ever been to Sa Pa?

• Lan often drinks green tea in the afternoon.

  阿兰下午常喝绿茶。

• My brother is never on time.

  我哥哥从来不准时。

• I speak English, and I can also speak a little French.

  我会说英语，还会说一点法语。

• We have already booked the tickets.

  我们已经订好票了。

• My sisters are both nurses.

  我的两个姐姐都是护士。

💡Never 本身已经是否定，所以要和肯定形式的动词连用：I never eat meat——不说 “I don't never eat”。标准英语一个句子里只用一个否定词。

• ✗I very like this song.

  ✓I really like this song. / I like this song very much.

  very 不能放在动词前面。

• ✗She speaks very well English.

  ✓She speaks English very well.

  动词和宾语不分开。

• ✗We go usually to the market on Sundays.

  ✓We usually go to the market on Sundays.

  频率副词放在普通动词前面。

• ✗He drinks every morning coffee.

  ✓He drinks coffee every morning.

  先宾语，后时间。

• ✗They arrived last night at the hotel.

  ✓They arrived at the hotel last night.

  通常地点在时间前面。

• ✗I have always to get up early.

  ✓I always have to get up early.

  副词放在 have to 前面。
