”這個乞丐好像是好幾天沒有吃東西了”翻成英文

Question

這一句怎麼翻呀?
It seems as if the beggar has not eaten anything for days.是正確答案。
但是若要把主詞放前面的話怎麼翻?
The beggar seems as if he did not have anything to eat for several days.這樣寫可以嗎?
請達人幫幫忙囉!!

Answer 1

It seems as if the beggar has not eaten anything for days.是正確答案。
但是若要把主詞放前面的話怎麼翻?
The beggar seems as if he did not have anything to eat for several days.這樣寫可以嗎? -----
要把主詞放前面的話，且用"seem"這個的話，就得依據"seem"這個字的用法：
人或事物 seem to V. ：

--- The beggar seems to have eaten nothing for days.("seem as if"的句型都要用 "it seems as if 子句")
或
--- The begger looks as though he hadn't had nothing for days.
