核心问题
(1)We met on the day of conference.
(2) We met the day of conference.
请问这两个句子之中哪一个是正确的?
词典解答
上面两个句子都是正确的。根据CGEL的解释,英国英语大都使用句(1),而美国英语大都使用句(2)(即介词on是可有可无的)。下面是类似的情况:
f(1) We met in the spring of 1983.
(2) We met the spring of 1983. 我们相见于 1983 年春天。
on the early morning of/in the early morning of 见 in the morning of/on the morning on (the) earth 见 on earth/on the earth
on the farm 见 farm
on the morning/in the morning 见 in the morning/on the morning
on time/in time 见 in time
