什么是despite

Despite是一个介词,用于表示尽管某事物存在,但另一件事仍然发生或存在。它的意思相当于‘尽管’、‘虽然’等。

despite的用法

despite后面通常接名词、代词、动名词等表示事物的词语。例如:

  • Despite the rain, we still had a great time at the park.(尽管下雨,我们仍然在公园里玩得很开心。)
  • Despite her busy schedule, she always finds time to exercise.(尽管她的日程很忙,她总是能找到时间锻炼身体。)
  • Despite the fact that he was tired, he stayed up late to finish his work.(尽管他很累,他还是熬夜完成了工作。)

与despite相关的词语

除了despite外,还有一些表示‘尽管’的词语,例如:

  • although(虽然)
  • even though(即使)
  • notwithstanding(尽管)

despite和in spite of的区别

虽然despite和in spite of都可以表示‘尽管’,但它们的用法略有不同。in spite of后面通常接名词或代词,而且一般不接动名词。例如:

  • In spite of the rain, we still had a great time at the park.(尽管下雨,我们仍然在公园里玩得很开心。)
  • In spite of his tiredness, he managed to finish his work.(尽管他很累,他还是完成了工作。)

需要注意的是,in spite of后面可以接‘the fact that’从句,而despite则不行。例如:

  • In spite of the fact that he was tired, he stayed up late to finish his work.(尽管他很累,他还是熬夜完成了工作。)
  • *Despite the fact that he was tired, he stayed up late to finish his work.(尽管他很累,他还是熬夜完成了工作。)
