possible,probable的區(qū)別
這兩個詞的反義詞是impossible,improbable
1）possible作“或許”解,有“也許如此,也許不如此”之意.強調(diào)客觀上有可能性,但常常帶有“實際可能性很小”的暗示.
2）probable用來指有根據(jù),合情理,值得相信的事物,帶有“大概,很可能”的意味.語氣比possible要重,是most likely之意.
It’s possible,though not probable.That he will accept the terms.他也可能接受這些條件,但希望不大.
(2) be possible,be probable常用形式主語it,構(gòu)成句型為：
It is possible/probable + that …（從句）
It is possible /probable+ for sb.to do sth.例如：
他有可能做這件事.
[√] It is possible for him to do this.
[√] It is possible that he will do this.
[×] He is possible to do this.
