: ※ 引述《sean72 (.)》之銘言：
: : 標題: [文法] can be of xxxx
: : the directory can be of variable size.
: : 請問這個of是什麼意思
: : 感覺這是一個倒裝過之後的句子
: : 請問還原之後應該怎麼寫才對呢
: : --
: : → pierse:這不是倒裝 就是of+名詞=形容詞的用法 04/11 14:39
: : → sean72:意思是說: directory是一個大小可變的東西 對嗎? 04/11 15:34
: : → alixia:應該是說size有大有小 04/14 01:16
: 那為什麼不直接寫
: the directory can be variable size 就好了呢?
"to be of" 有兩種用法，屬較正式的句型。
"to be of" 有 have (the characteristic of) 的意思，後面接的是抽象名詞。
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
例句：
1.) This research project is of great worth.
= This research project has great worth.
2.) Many scholars are of different ideas.
= Many scholars have different ideas.
3.) We are not just selling cheap food but we also make sure the food is of
good quality.
= We are not just selling cheap food but we also make sure the food has
good quality.
worth 與 quality (level of excellence) 皆為不可數名詞，故不用加冠詞。
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
要注意的是這種句法只能使用於抽象的名詞前。
所以不能說 "Jame is of a car." 或 "He is of a lot of money."
此句型還有另一種用法：
"to be of" 接抽象名詞 = "to be" 接形容詞。
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.) to be of importance = to be important
2.) to be of significance = to be significant
3.) to be of consequence = to be consequential
4.) to be of interest = to be interesting
5.) to be of assistance = to be helpful
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
例句：
1.) The SDNPA may consider not to be of significance to National Park
purposes.
= The SDNPA may consider not to be significant to National Park
purposes.
2.) This is of interest to all classic car enthusiasts.
= This is interesting to all classic car enthusiasts.
3.) Please let me know if I can be of any help in this process.
= Please let me know if I can be helpful in this process.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
而原PO所提供的句子可應用於兩種用法：
The directory can be of variable size.
= The directory can have variable size.
= The directory can be variable-sized.
三句的意義是完全相同的。
