文法概念介系詞
單字概述與用法
despite是一個介系詞,語意為儘管、不管,用來表達儘管存在某種情況或事實,但其預期的影響並未發生,或是與該情況或事實相反。換句話說,它用來表示對比或矛盾。despite後面要接名詞、代名詞或是動名詞(Ving)。
- 介系詞:儘管、不管
用法及注意事項:
- despite與in spite of可以互換使用,意義相同,但despite較為常見
- despite所帶領的副詞片語可以在主要子句的後面或前面。在同一個句子中,不要再使用but或however,因為despite本身已經具有這樣的對比意義

正確:Despite the rain, we went out. - 要注意,despite後面不可以加of,這是常見錯誤
- despite通常用在正式語境中,而在口語中,多使用even though或though帶領副詞子句。要注意,despite後面接名詞,而even though或though後面要接句子(有主詞動詞)
- despite後面用動名詞,不要用不定式(to V)

正確:Despite trying hard, he failed.
