The use of ellipsis in English
省略是一種避免重復、突出新信息并使上下文緊密連接的語法手段。與漢語-樣，英語中的省略也較為常見。
一般來說，只要不損害結構或引起歧義，能省略的地方就可以省略。
省略的意義：可使語言更加簡潔，意思更加明確，句子結構更加緊湊。
What is ellipsis？
省略是指省去可以根據上下文語境或情景語境恢復的句子成分。英語中存在多種多樣的省略現象，句子中既可以省略主語、謂語、謂語的一部分或賓語，也可以一起省略主語和謂語。省略在口語和書面語中都非常普遍。省略的使用包括但不局限于以下情況:
一. 簡單句的省略
省略主語：祈使句中主語通常省略; 其它省略主語多限于少數現成的說法。
(I)Thank you for your help.
(It)Doesn’t matter.
(I) Beg your pardon
省略主謂或主謂語的一部分
(There is) No smoking.
(Is there) Anything wrong?
(Will you) Have a smoke?
Why (do you) not say hello to him?
省略作賓語的不定式短語，只保留to,但如果該賓語是動詞be或完成時態，則須在之后加上be或have:
-Are you going there?
-Yes, I’d like to(go there).
He didn’t give me the chance, though he had promised to (give me the chance).
-Are you an engineer?
-No, but I want to be (an engineer).
-He hasn’t finished the task yet.
-Well, he ought to have (finished the task).
省略表語
-Are you thirsty? - Yes, I am (thirsty).
His brother isn’t lazy, nor is his sister (lazy).
同時省略幾個成分
Let’s meet at the same place as (we met) yesterday.
--Have you finished your work?
--(I have) Not (finished my work) yet.
二. 主從復合句中的省略及其他情況的省略。
主句中有一些成分被省略
(I’m) Sorry to hear you are ill.
(It’s a)Pity that he missed such a good chance.
- Is he coming back tonight? -I think so.
- She must be busy now?
- If so, she can’t go with us.
- Is she felling better today?
- I’m afraid not.
- Do you think he will attend the meeting?
- I guess not.
