专业提示

避免误用场合

该短语仅用于引出对立或补充的观点,不适用于简单的因果关系或并列关系。例如: ❌ ‘I like coffee, on the other hand, I drink tea.’(错误,两者并非对立) ✅ ‘I like coffee, but on the other hand, it keeps me awake at night.’(正确,表达对立观点)

黄金法则

结构完整性

使用时需确保前后观点具有对比性或补充性,避免逻辑混乱。

语气平衡

在正式写作中,‘on the other hand’比‘but’更显庄重,适合用于学术或商务文本。

词源

源于英语口语表达,直译为‘在另一只手上’,用于比喻引出对立或补充的观点。历史可追溯至16世纪,最初用于实物比喻(如实际的双手),后演变为抽象概念的转折表达。

用法说明

1. 该短语通常位于句中或句末,用于引出与前文观点相反或补充的陈述。 2. 在正式写作或演讲中使用频率较高,口语中也常见。 3. 与‘on the one hand’配对使用时,形成对比结构,但单独使用也很常见。
