- 词义辨析
between, among
这两个介词都可表示“在…之间”。它们的区别在于:among一般表示在三个或三个以上的人或事物之间,这些人或事物往往构成一个集合体; 而between一般表示在两个人或事物之间, between用来指在三者或三者以上的人或事物之间时,往往强调一方与其他诸方各自之间的关系。
among，between，amid，amongst
这些前置词都含“在……之间，在……之中”之意。among指三者或三者以上的同类事物之间。between多指两者之间，但现代英语中也可指三者或三者以上，表示彼此间清楚的独立的个体关系。amid正式用词，侧重指在某个地方的中间或被某个东西包围着或在非同类人中间。amongst与among同义，是among的变体。一般说来among总能替代amongst,而amongst则不然。
