In British English, the adjectiveelder is usually only used to describe brothers and sisters....her elder sister. You useolder to talk about the age of other people or things.elder cannot be followed bythan butolder can be.I've got a sister who is older than me.Do not confuseelder andelderly. If you describe someone aselderly, you mean that they are old, but this is a slightly more polite word than 'old'. 'Theelderly' are elderly people.
英国英语中形容词 elder 通常只用来指哥哥、姐姐,如,her elder sister (她姐姐)。older用于指年龄。elder 后不能接 than,而 older 则可以。例如,I've got a sister who is older than me (我有个姐姐)。不要混淆 elderelderly。elderly意为“年老的”,但比用 old 稍显礼貌一点。the elderly 指老年人。

adj.(形容词)

词义辨析
adj.(形容词)
elder, elderly
  • 这两个词的区别是:elder表示“年龄较大的”“年长的”,指相对于某人或某事来说年龄比较大; elderly表示“上了年纪的”“过了中年的”,是绝对意义上的年纪较大。例如:
  • She is my elder daughter.她是我的大女儿。
  • He's very active for an elderly man.按老年人来说,他非常活跃。
  • elder, older
  • 这两个词都是old的比较级。其区别是:
  • elder强调“次第”,而older强调“年龄”。
  • 1.older在句中,可用作定语也可用作表语,且可与than连用; elder在句中只能用作定语,不可与than连用。例如:
  • My elder brother is two years older than me.我的哥哥比我年长两岁。
  • 2.older可修饰人或事物; 而elder则只能修饰人。例如:
  • It claims to be the older insurance company in the world.据称这是世界上一家较早的保险公司。
  • He is my elder brother.他是我哥哥。
  • 3.在英国说“哥哥”“姐姐”时用elder; 而在美国则用older。
