省略と代用

Ellipsis and substitution

so、not、do so、one/ones、短縮された不定詞、助動詞だけの返答を使って、繰り返しを避けましょう。

流暢な話し手は、聞き手がすでに知っている語をほとんど繰り返しません。Ellipsis(省略)は語を省くこと、substitution(代用)は語を so, not, one or do(so、not、one、do)のような短い語で置き換えることです。どちらも話し言葉や書き言葉をより自然にしますが、意味が明確に伝わる程度の情報は残さなければなりません。

手段使い方例
so / not after hope, think, expect, be afraidreplace a whole clauseWill it rain? I hope not. / I'm afraid so.
do soreplace a verb phrase, formalAnyone wishing to leave early may do so quietly.
one / onesreplace a countable nounShall I buy the red apples or the green ones?
Reduced infinitive with toleave out the rest of an infinitiveI haven't visited Rome, but I'd love to.
Auxiliary onlyleave out the main verbNadia enjoys running, and so does her brother.
Neither / nor + auxiliaryagree with a negativeRavi hasn't read it, nor has Aiko.
the former / the latterrefer back to two itemsThe architect and the engineer worked together; the former designed the roof.

think, believe, supposeとexpectの場合、否定の形は2つあります。I don't think soは I think not より一般的で、I hope notとI'm afraid notには別の形はありません。比較の一部を省くときは、助動詞を残します:Her first novel sold far better than her second did. ここでは did が繰り返される動詞 sold を置き換え、second の後の novel は省かれています。
