7. Particule adverbiale (Adverbial Particles)


Particulele adverbiale sunt asemanatoare ca forma cu unele prepozitii sau adverbe. Ele se deosebesc insa de acestea prin functia lor.

Particulele adverbiale modifica sensul verbelor pe care le insotesc, transformandu-le in verbe cu particule adverbiale: They have put off the meeting again = They have postponed the meeting again. Au amanat din nou sedinta.

Particulele adverbiale cel mai frecvent folosite sunt: about, across, along, around, away, back, by, down, in, of, on, out, over, past, roud, through, up.

Nota: Multe dintre aceste particule adverbiale pot fi folosite si ca adverbe propriu-zise: He is in. Este inauntru. / Este in casa.

sau ca prepozitii: He is in the kitchen. Este in bucatarie.


7.1. Intrebuintarea particulelor adverbiale


a) in majoritatea cazurilor, particulele adverbiale modifica total sensul verbelor la care sunt atasate: He came round after the accident. Si-a recapatat cunostinta / Si-a revenit dupa accident.

b) In alte cazuri, sensul verbului cu particula adverbiala poate fi dedus din analiza elementelor componente: go in, come, bring back, take away.

c) Folosirea unor particule adverbiale pe langa anumite verbe intareste doar ideea exprimata de acestea: drink up (bea tot/pana la fund), stand up, lie down.


7.2. Locul particulelor adverbiale in propozitie. Particulele adverbiale se aseaza imediat dupa un verb intranzitiv: He turned round and looked at me. S-a intors si s-a uitat la mine.

Daca verbul este tranzitiv si este urmat de un complement direct exprimat printr-un pronume sau alt determinant, particula adverbiala este asezata dupa complementul direct: We saw THEM off to the station. I-am condus la gara. Pick THESE up, please. Ridica astea, te rog.

Nota: Prin aceasta caracteristica, verbele cu particole adverbiale se deosebesc de verbele urmate de prepozitii obligatorii, deoarece prepozitiile nu pot fi separate de verb. Comparati: Please look ME up when you come to Bucharest. (up=particola adverbiala)

She was looking at HIM (at = prepozitie)


pag: 164


Daca complementul direct este exprimat printr-un substantiv, particula adverbiala poate fi asezata inainte sau dupa acesta (mai ales in vorbirea familiara): He gave back THE BOOK. He gave THE BOOK back. A inapoiat cartea.

Daca complementul direct este lung, sau este exprimat prinytr-o propozitie subordonata, particula adverbiala este asezata imediat dupa verb: He gave back the book he had borrowed. A inapoiat cartea pe care o imprumutase.
