prep.(介词)

1. between的基本意思是“在…之间”，一般说，between指两者之间，其宾语可以是有具体数目的人或物，也可以是用and连接的两个具体的人或物。
2. between在下列情况下可以用于三者或更多的人或物：①表示“每两者之间”时；②用and连接时；③指事物之间的区别或彼此之间的关系时；④强调“由于…的合作结果”时；⑤在divide, share等表示“分享”的动词与表示三者或三者以上的复数名词之间时。

prep.(介词)

between, among

这两个介词都可表示“在…之间”。其区别在于:among一般表示在三个或三个以上的人或事物之间,这些人或事物往往构成一个集合体; 而between一般表示在两个人或事物之间, between用来指在三者或三者以上的人或事物之间时,往往强调一方与其他诸方各自之间的关系。

among，between，amid，amongst

这些前置词均含“在……之间，在……之中”之意。

among指三者或三者以上的同类事物之间。

between多指两者之间，但现代英语中也可指三者或三者以上，表示彼此间清楚的独立的个体关系。

amid正式用词，侧重指在某个地方的中间或被某个东西包围着或在非同类人中间。

amongst与among同义，是among的变体。一般说来among总能替代amongst,而amongst则不然。
