it is fun doing
it is fun to do
这两种句型在意思上究竟有没有区别?
龙老师:
两者没什么区别,许多词典和语法著作都将两者划等号。如:
1. It was fun to go on the roller coaster.=It was fun going on the roller coaster. 乘过山车很好玩。——《朗文实用英语词语搭配词典》
2. She’s fun to be with. = It’s fun to be with her. = It’s fun being with her. [=her company is enjoyable]——《韦氏高阶英语词典》
关于这两类用法(用不定式和动名词作主语)的原则区别,《朗文英语语法》是这样说的:-ing形式可指进行中的动作,而不定式可有“一般”的含义。
