Mr. McWhorters academic specialty is language history and change, and he sees the gradual disappearance of whom, for example, to be natural and no more regrettable than the loss of the case endings of old English.
【析句】本句是一个并列句,包含两个以and 连接的分句,其中第二个分句比较复杂:宾语是the gradual disappearance of whom,后面
是插入语for example,紧跟着to be natural of Old English 作上述宾语的补足语。
句中的see 是考虑,认为(consider)的意思。
【讲词】specialty 的意思有专业,专长,特长,特制品,饭店的特色菜也可用specialty 表示。His specialty is biology, mine is
physiology.(他的专业是生物学,我的专业是生理学。)Wood carving is a specialty of this village.(木雕是这个村子的特产。)
答案:
麦克沃特先生的学术专长是语言史和语言变化。举例来说,他认为whom一词的逐渐消失是自然的,并不比古英语中词格尾缀的消失更让人惋惜。
