until的用法总结_not…until的用法知识点

1.till与until在用法的区别 :
till和until都可以作为介词和连词，用在肯定句中时，二者均可表示“直到……为止”，
相当于before。
例如： I will wait till(until)seven o‘clock.
我会一直等到7点钟。(介词)
She lived in Tokyo till(until)she died.
她在东京一直住到去世。(连词)
till与until用在否定句中，均可表示“在……以前”或“直到……才” 。
例如： Tom didn‘t come back till(until)midnight.
汤姆到半夜才回来。(介词)
The boys won‘t come home till(until)it is dark.
男孩子们不到天黑不回家。(连词)
需要注意的是：till多用于普通文体，而 until则用于多种文体，并且在句子开头时，用 until而不用till 。
例如：在他回来之前，什么也不能做。
译：Until he comes back，nothing can be done.(√)
Till he comes back，nothing can be done.(×)
not…until/till… 意为“直到……才……”，表示until/till 所表示的时间一到，主句谓语动词所表示的动作才发生。
