大家好, 想請問下面這句: You can collect the ticket up to 3 days before the show-don't leave it too late. 意思是 1. 表演前三天要取完票 or 2. 表演前三天才開始取票? 謝謝大家 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 109.84.2.245 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Eng-Class/M.1461776888.A.78C.html

是期限
04/28 02:20, 1F

我覺得文法上兩個解釋都有可能,但2.不合常理,沒有
04/28 02:48, 2F

04/28 02:48, , 3F
票這麼晚才開始取的。再加上它都提醒你不要太晚取票了
04/28 02:48, 3F

04/28 02:48, , 4F
,所以應該是1。
04/28 02:48, 4F

04/28 05:54, , 5F
是2
04/28 05:54, 5F

04/28 06:26, , 6F
如果把up to解釋成up until那就會是1.
04/28 06:26, 6F

04/28 06:38, , 7F
yeah i think you're right!
04/28 06:38, 7F

04/28 19:24, , 8F
謝謝大家,看來兩種都有可能?但兩者差好多啊><還是
04/28 19:24, 8F

04/28 19:34, , 9F
謝謝大家!我覺得T說的滿有道理的,但這個取票
04/28 19:34, 9F

04/28 19:34, , 10F
方案是給外國人,因此我覺得2也是滿有可能的
04/28 19:34, 10F

04/28 19:51, , 11F
up to 是 limit or boundary
04/28 19:51, 11F

04/28 19:52, , 12F
我會覺得方向性不可能是從表演當天當起點往前算到第三天截止
04/28 19:52, 12F

04/28 19:53, , 13F
所以說文法都可以,我不同意。
04/28 19:53, 13F

04/28 19:53, , 14F
描述時間性方向性不會是用倒流的
04/28 19:53, 14F

04/28 19:59, , 15F
所以priv也覺得應該是1囉?
04/28 19:59, 15F

04/28 20:53, , 16F
Up to 本身應該沒有方向性,方向是 before 賜予的,
04/28 20:53, 16F

04/28 20:53, , 17F
所以我還是認為文法上兩者皆通。

04/28 20:57, , 20F
(抱歉我不會縮網址)請參考這篇文章的最後一段,其
04/28 20:57, 20F

04/28 20:57, , 21F
中有一句“ If you have intercourse up to 3 days be
04/28 20:57, 21F

04/28 20:57, , 22F
fore ovulation, those sperm can still be viable an
04/28 20:57, 22F

04/28 20:57, , 23F
d capable of fertilising the egg.”。從前後文可以
04/28 20:57, 23F

04/28 20:57, , 24F
判斷,這邊的 up to 就是 no more than 而不是 up unt
04/28 20:57, 24F

04/28 20:57, , 25F
il 的意思。
04/28 20:57, 25F

04/29 18:34, , 26F
在跟時間有關的句子中,"up to" 的確有可能被解釋為 "up
04/29 18:34, 26F

04/29 18:34, , 27F
until",不過若當 "up until" 解的話,跟在其後的應會是
04/29 18:34, 27F

04/29 18:34, , 28F
"a particular/specific point in time or the event
04/29 18:34, 28F

04/29 18:34, , 29F
mentioned",我們來看看「朗文英語聯想活用辭典」對此的
04/29 18:34, 29F

04/29 18:34, , 30F
說明:〝If something happens 'up until' or 'up to' a
04/29 18:34, 30F

04/29 18:34, , 31F
particular time, date etc, it happens continuously
04/29 18:34, 31F

04/29 18:34, , 32F
before that time but no longer happens after that
04/29 18:34, 32F

04/29 18:34, , 33F
time.〞,例句: She continued to write poetry, up to
04/29 18:34, 33F

04/29 18:34, , 34F
the day she died.; 而 "up to" 在跟時間有關的句子中當
04/29 18:34, 34F

04/29 18:34, , 35F
"not more than" 解釋時,跟在其後的通常會是 a general
04/29 18:34, 35F

04/29 18:34, , 36F
term covering a span of time
04/29 18:34, 36F

04/29 18:34, , 37F
CCALD 8th對此的說明為: amount "You use 'up to' to
04/29 18:34, 37F

04/29 18:34, , 38F
say how large something can be or what level it has
04/29 18:34, 38F

04/29 18:34, , 39F
reached.", 例句: It could be up to two years before
04/29 18:34, 39F

04/29 18:34, , 40F
the process is complete.
04/29 18:34, 40F

04/29 18:34, , 41F
LDOCE 對此的說明為: "as much or as many as a certain
04/29 18:34, 41F

04/29 18:34, , 42F
amount or number but not more",例句: a process that
04/29 18:34, 42F

04/29 18:34, , 43F
can take anything up to ten days
04/29 18:34, 43F

04/29 18:34, , 44F
ODE對此的說明為: "indicating a maximum amount",例句:
04/29 18:34, 44F

04/29 18:34, , 45F
the process is expected to take up to two years
04/29 18:34, 45F

04/29 18:34, , 46F
04/29 18:34, 46F

04/29 18:34, , 47F
因此,綜上所述,若原po這句話要做1.來解釋的話,它長的
04/29 18:34, 47F

04/29 18:34, , 48F
應該會像下面這兩個網頁中有出現 "up to" 的句子,節錄其
04/29 18:34, 48F

04/29 18:34, , 49F
中一句: "Currently, such alterations may only be made
04/29 18:34, 49F

04/29 18:34, , 50F
up to the fifth day before the day of poll."
