记忆这两个短语的意思的时候,最好要抛开汉语的影响,而用英语去解释英语
no less than = as many / much as ;
no more than = as little / few as
因此翻译汉语的时候,no less than 要翻译成“不比。。。。。。少”,而no more than 则要翻译成“不比。。。。。。多”,更多的时候no more than 直接翻译成“仅仅”就可以了。
(no + 某形容词/ 副词的比较级+ than 可以看成是as + 某形容词/ 副词的反义词的原级+ as 结构)。
比如no easier than =as difficult as 不比。。。。。。简单,像。。。。。。一样难)
理解这两个短语的时候一定要与not less than 及not more than 区分开,not less than要翻译成“不少于”也就是说是“大于等于。。。。。。”的关系,not more than 则翻译成“不多于”,也就是说是“小于等于。。。。。。”的关系。翻译:
