独立主格,第一它是一个“格”,而不是一个“句子”。在英语中任何一个句子都要有主谓结构,而在这个结构中,没真的的主语和谓语动词,但又在逻辑上构成主谓或主表关系。
独立主格结构不是主谓完整的简单句,而只不过一个短语。
什么叫独立主格?
独立主格结构 是一种特定的英语句式,由两部分组成,前一部分是名词或者代词,后一部分是非谓语动词 或形容词、副词、名词或介词短语。前后两部分具备逻辑主谓关系。即:
名词/代词 + 目前分词
名词/代词 + 过去分词
名词/代词 + 动词不定式
名词/代词 + 形容词、副词、名词或介词短语
+
独立主格结构可以说是英语学习中的一个难题,由于它在乎义上可以独立成句,却与另一个句子组成句子,不需要连词。那样,让大家来看看独立主格结构是怎么样形成的。
独立主格结构的特征:
1、独立主格结构的逻辑主语与句子的主语不同,它独立存在。
2、名词或代词与后面的分词、形容词、不定式、介词等是主谓关系。
3、独立主格结构一般有逗号与主句分开。
独立主格结构主要用于描绘性文字中,其用途等于一个状语从句,常用来表示时间、缘由、条件、行为方法或随着状况等。
独立主格的使用方法
独立主格结构是一个独立主格的名词或代词,加上一个分词、形容词、副词、不定式、介词短语。其用途等于状语,多用来表示行为、方法或随着的状况,有时也用来表示时间和条件。这种结构多用在书面语中。

with复合结构 与 独立主格结构
它们都可以在句中作缘由状语,随着情况状语,条件状语,时间状语或结果状语用,一般也可以相互转换.虽然它们的语法功能和意义相同,但其结构形式和名字却不相同.
with复合结构的模式是:
with+名词/代词+分词/形容词/副词/不定式/介词短语
独立主格结构的模式是:
主格名词/代词+分词/形容词/副词/不定式/介词短语
一,作时间状语
1,With winter coming on, the trees turn yellow and
some birds fly south.
=Winter coming on, the trees turn yellow and some
birds fly south.
二,作缘由状语
1,With the weather terribly cold, we entered the
room to warm ourselves.
= The weather terribly cold, we entered the room to warm ourselves.
2,With the key having been lost, she could not
enter the room.

playing on the bed.

2,Last night I followed him, with a sword in my hand.

无论with复合结构还是独立主格结构,都不可有动词的谓语形式充当其中的逻辑谓语.如下例中的was就需要去掉:
He sat at the desk reading
with a pen was in his right hand.
with复合结构可以作后置定语修饰名词,而独立主格结构则不可作后置定语修饰名词.
Soon she arrived at a park with grass green and
flowers in blossom.
= Soon she arrived at a park whose grass was green
and whose flowers were in blossom.
