表示转折时while与but的区别:
二者都有“而,然而”之意,但while强调二者的对比,而but强调前后的转折关系。
例如:
while
Some people waste food while others haven't enough.
有些人很费粮食,然而有些人却吃不饱。
The son was having a good meal at home, while the parents were working in the fields.
儿子在家吃好饭而父母却在田里辛勤劳作。
but
I ought to have helped her, but I never could.
我本该帮她但没能。
Honey is sweet, but the bee stings.
蜂蜜很甜,但蜜蜂有刺蜇人。
