词义辨析

prep. (介词)

according to, by, from, in, on, under

• 这组词的共同意思是“根据”“按照”。其区别是：
• according to是这组词中最常用的一个,可指依据某人的话语、说法、指示,也可指按照某计划、法规等,可以是正式的,也可以是非正式的; by的本意是“凭借某种手段、方式”,由此引申出“依据,按照”,其宾语常为某种规则、法规、标准、习俗等; from的本意是“来源”,由此引申出“根据事物的来源判断”; in指“依据”时,仅见于与eye, opinion, view等表示观点的名词或order, sequence等表示顺序的名词连用,还见于in law, in practice, in theory等短语中; on是根据事物发生和存在所依靠的基础这一用法,由此引申为“根据,按照”,与之连用的词一般是表示忠告、规则、命令、指示、协议、建议、原理的名词; under通常指根据正式的协议、法令、条款、合同等,含有在其控制或约束之下的意味。

according to, according as, in accordance with

• 这组短语都有“根据; 依据”的意思。其区别是：
• 1.in accordance with可指依照法律、章程、规则、惯例等,强调“和…一致”,也可指依照某一学说或某人的话,即“按照…的观点或说法”; 而according to只指依据某一学说和某人的话等。
• 2.according to也可作“视(质量、专长等)而定”解,而in accordance with无此义。
• 3.表示“按照”时, in accordance with和according to引导状语; 而according as引导状语从句。表示“一致”时, in accordance with和according to引导表语,而according as无此用法。
• 4.在语气上, in accordance with较according to更庄重。
• 5.in accordance with是正式用词; 而according to和according as是一般用词。

according as，according to

• 都是according+介词的固定搭配。
• according as表示“视乎”，有depending及according to whether的意味。According as是连词词组，其后接从句。
• according to表示“根据”、“按照”；according to 是介词短语，其后接名词。
