The crime was of interest in itself, but that interest was as nothing to me compared to the inconceivable sequel,
which afforded me the greatest shock and surprise of any event in my adventurous life.
请教老师,句中出现的as nothing可以去掉as吗?这里加了as怎么样理解? as nothing中,as词性和含义分别是什么?
麻烦老师解说一下。
谢谢!
as nothing 与上次提到的 as anything,都已成为习语(两个意思正好相反)。as 表示身份或比拟意义,不可省略。
as nothing:决不/根本不(有趣)
as anything:十分;完全;很 (It was dead as nothing.)
