himself
/hɪmˈsɛlf/KK
hɪm·sɛlf
1.
他自己；他本人
作為反身代名詞，指代句子的主詞男性，表示動作回到他自己身上
用法：通常不能單獨作主詞。主詞是男性單數時，反身代名詞要使用這個形式
He taught himself how to cook.
他自學了如何烹飪。
He hurt himself while playing basketball.
他打籃球時弄傷了自己。
2.
他本人；他自己
作為強調代名詞，強調男性主詞本人，而不是其他人
用法：此用法不是反身受詞，而是用來強調主詞本人

校長親自歡迎新學生。
He himself made the birthday cake.
他本人親手做了生日蛋糕。
3.
他自己；獨自地
在「獨自」或「沒有他人協助」的意思中，表示男性一個人完成某件事
用法：「獨自」的意思通常使用介系詞搭配「by himself」，不能直接用這個字取代整個片語

他自己一個人住在火車站附近。
He did the work by himself.
他自己做了這件事。

學習提示
・「himself」可表示「他自己」或「他本人」，要根據句子判斷是反身用法還是強調用法。
・表示「獨自」時，最常見的搭配是「by himself」。
・不要把「himself」當作男性單數的主格代名詞；主詞位置應使用「he」。
