not...any more表示次数不再继续;如:他哭了好几次,他不再哭了.He didn't cry any more.
而 not ...any longe表示时间不再继续.如:他等了很久,不能再等了.He couldn't wait any longer.
no longer / no more / not any longer / not any more
不再,再也不
--- no more / no longer 放在 be 动词、助动词、情态动词之后,行为动词之前.no more 多用来修饰具体动词;no longer多用来修饰某种具体状态动词.例如:
He no longer lived here.
He has no more trouble.
Bruce works in a company.He is no more a student.
--- 表示时间“一度,曾经”,强调以前的情况不再继续下去,once but not now.用no longer,not any longer,not any more.但no longer,not any longer多与持续性动词连用;not any more 多与终止性动词连用.
She used to study English,but she doesn’t study it any longer/any more.
I am afraid she doesn’t live here any longer/any more.
Does Tom live here?No he no longer lives here.
He is no longer happy.
He doesn't come here any more.( 不用any longer)
no longer=not any longer
no more=not any more
no more 和 not any more 可以做宾语,no longer 不可以
No longer意思是“不再”,其确切含意为某状态在某个时刻之后不再继续下去了.所以,当你从学校毕业了,就可以说:I'm no longer a student.我不再是个学生了.
有两个短语和no longer同义,即not…any longer和not…any more,但他们侧重的方面不同.前者侧重时间,比如:
He no longer lives here.= He doesn't live here any longer.
他不在这儿居住了.(一个时间以前他住在这儿,过了这个时间,他就离开了.)
后者侧重程度和数量,比如:
You can drink no more.= You can't drink any more.
你不能再喝了.(喝酒的量到了一定程度,不能再继续下去了.)
要注意的是:由于no longer本身就带有否定的含义,即表示“再也不”,所以不能在同一个句子中加入否定词,比如:
I'll come here no longer.我再也不来了.
