关于be adj enough to do结构语法的请教

来源:www.chuangyutime.com 2024-12-08

口语外教教了一句话:Our town is also small enough to where you can walk just about everywhere. 

我问这句话语法是不是正确,他表示这是非常地道的口语表达。但我真不知道这个语法结构。enough to后面应该是动词啊,这里确接了个where。即使这句话是约定俗成,是否也该有个“进化”过程啊,譬如是 small enough to go where you can walk之类的,但我了解我这句话也有问题。在这里请教了,谢谢!

第一,这个句子没错误。enough to where+主谓结构,是介词短语表示enough的结果状语。类似的句子在COCA语料库有100多个。where引导名词性从句,where等于that, 为非正式使用方法。但that从句不可以做介词的宾语,而where引导从句则可以作介词宾语了。也可以理解to where=to the result that, that引导限制性同位语从句修饰the result.  即 to where等于so that引导结果状语从句。

你的句子可翻译为:大家的城镇也够小了,以致于大家可以步行到每一个地方。当然你可以润色为更为通顺的汉语,但意思就是如此的。

更多的COCA例句:

The iPad mini is small enough to where I can prop itup on something else .

 I am disabled enough to where I can notstand for long periods of time.

I started prying the door open enough to where I could getout to the latch.

There were only a couple of timeswhere it got hot enough to where I had to kind of cover my face up.

I've been here long enough to where the staff andfront office guys know who I am.
