Not only but also 用法 概覽

- Not only 放在句首時，需使用倒裝句(inversion)。
- Not only A but also B B後面的動詞需跟從B，不要被A擾亂。
Not only A but also B
前後A B結構必須對等。
因爲not only A but also B 是對等的sentence structure。
A&B可以是單一個名詞、形容詞或子句， A 和 B 兩者的詞性和時態必須是互相呼應的。
即是説：如果 A 是名詞，B 也一定要是名詞，如果 A 是句子， B 也必須為句子。
就是門對門，戶對戶的關係。
例句：
The car not only is economical but also feels good to drive.
VO對VO

Noun 對 Noun
Not only 放在句首時，需使用倒裝句
倒裝句有兩中sentence structure:

例句：
- Not only did she forget my birthday, but she also didn’t even apologise for forgetting it.
- Not only was it raining all day at the wedding but also the band was late.
Not only A but also B
B後面的動詞需跟從B
即是説，B後面的動詞需否加s 全權由B定奪！
例句：

want跟從her friends而非she
