英語中有些形式上否定而內容含義上都是肯定的結構，譯成漢語時不能拘泥于原文的表層結構的否定，要忠實于原文的含義。下面我們對常見的形否意肯結構句進行了歸納，供大家參考。

常見的形否意肯結構：

(1)否定詞+比較級(+than…)相當于最高級，通常譯為“…最…”或“完全，十分，非常”

I cannot agree with you more。

He could not feel better。

The film cannot be better。

He wants nothing more than time。

Nothing is more precious than health。

Notes: 1. 此結構中的否定詞通常包括：not, no, never, nothing, nowhere等；

2. 此結構常用cannot/couldn’t+比較級的形式；

3. 否定詞(通常是全體意義的否定詞：nothing, nobody, nowhere等)+比較級+than…結構中，肯定than后面的部分，表示“最…”。

(2)cannot …too，“越…。。越…, 再…。。也不過分”。在此結構中，cannot可改為can hardly, can scarcely, can never；too也可改為 over + v, enough, sufficient 等

Youcannotbe toocautious。

Youcan hardly praise him too much。

A man can neverhave too many friends。

Newton’s contribution to modern sciencecan scarcely be overrated。

Hecan’t see you quickly enough. = He desires to see you as soon as possible。

Notes:“ cannot wait to…”結構表示“eager to …”

I cannot wait to read your new book. = I am eager to read your new book。

I cannot wait to see her. = I am eager to see her。

(3)no(nobody)… but  “都…， 沒有…。不，只有…。才”

There is no man but has his faults。

There is no rule but has exception。

Nobody reads the book but will be moved。

There existsno manbut has an enemy。

Notes: 這種結構中的but起關系代詞的作用，相當于that, which, who does/ will/ have not。

(4)never (not)…. but (that) 每當…總是…, 沒有哪次不是……

I never see you but think of my mother。

It never rains butit pours.

Never a day passedbut brought us good news。

He will not be angry but that he is offended。

(5)nothing but, none but “僅僅，只有…才”。nothing but 后接非指人的名詞， none but 后接指人的名詞，與nothing other than同義意為“僅僅，只有…才”

We can see nothing but water。

We found none but an old man in the room。

None but me knew what happened。

None but a fool would do such a thing。

You can find that sort of bird nowhere but in Australia。

(6)其他表示形否意肯的否定結構

a. nothing else than(僅僅，完全)

b. no (none)other than正是，僅僅是

c. more often than not, as often as not常常， 往往
