in front和in the front都需要加of再加可数名词复数,表示在……的前面,但二者又有区别:
in front of 表示广义的在……之前,没有空间范围的限制,反义词是behind.例如:
1.Tom sits in front of me.汤姆坐在我的前面.
2.There is a beautiful garden in front of my house.我家前面有一个美丽的花园.
in the front of表示在一定空间范围内的前面,反义短语是in the back of.
例如:
The blackboard is in the front of our classroom.黑板在教室的前面.
The national flag is in the front of the playground.国旗在操场的前面.
