※ 引述《Vucasee (Epsilon)》之銘言:
: since能取代because 嗎?@@
: 我google好久...
: 感覺這樣的用法還蠻少的,只知道since用作解釋原因的時候
: 有弱化且在敘述已知原因(大家都知道的)時才用。
: 我之前寫作文時都直接把since 放在because 的位置使用,
: 補習班老師沒有糾正我...但是最近有朋友覺得我的用法怪怪的
: ex: Money is very useful since we can buy anything we want with it.
: 不知道這樣的用法對嗎?
: 時態上的使用或者其他地方有沒有需要注意的地方?
: 謝謝囉~^^

我今天剛好在圖書館借了常春藤2010.6刊 p53介紹到
Since的用法,我是直接打出來分享,沒修改

1.since為副詞連接詞,表『既然....』、『因為...』之意,其後引導的副詞子句
及所修飾的主要子句=>用一般時態
Ex: Since your company failed to meet our needs, we are going to terminate
the contract.

2.since做副詞連接詞時,亦可表『自從....』、『自...之後』,此時則引導過去式的
副詞子句,修飾完成式或完成進行式的主要子句
Ex: Ever since John was bullied on campus, he has hated going to school.

3.since表『自從....』、『自...之後』時,亦可做介詞,之後接明確的時間、名詞、
動名詞或是then,行成副詞片語,修飾完成式或是完成進行式的主要子句
Ex: Gary has been living in Taipei since childhood.
