Usage differences and examples
1, the meaning difference between cut-off and cut-off
Deadline means to stop at a certain time, emphasizing "stop"; Limit the time to stop. As of yesterday, the number of trainees has reached more than 53,000.
As means to stop at a certain time, emphasizing "time". Example: As of June 65438+February 65438+February 2022, the newly-increased green area in our district is about1.2000 square meters.
Differential understanding: As of, time words (as objects) must be followed. Until, stop at a certain period, but don't end, continue later. The word "to" in "as of" means to arrive, emphasizing that until a certain time, the time can be extended according to the needs of statistics. "As of" must be followed by a time object, such as "as of yesterday" and "as of a certain month".
From now on, you can't take time words as objects. "Deadline" is usually used after time words. For example, the registration ended yesterday and the exam will be held at the end of this month.
2. The two cannot be used together casually. For example, "so far" cannot say "so far".
But as long as they are matched with the right words, they can be substituted for each other.
As shown in the above example:
As of now, I can't say as of now! But we can say "up to now" because "to" is equivalent to "to". Therefore, as long as the word "to" is added after the deadline, the two can be used interchangeably. The similarities and differences and usages of Chinese words are sometimes so subtle that we need to master and pay attention to them.
3. The general scenarios in which they are used in official documents.
Scope and use: mainly used for data "statistics" and time calculation.
Therefore, in the context, in addition to the expression of the above examples, parentheses can sometimes be used after statistical data or time to play a supplementary role.
Example 1: As of this year 1 1 month, the company has completed 98% of the annual production tasks.
As of this year 1 1 month, the company has completed 98% of the annual production tasks.
It is also possible to use it flexibly in actual use, not too rigid.
