as for (至于,就……方面说)和 as to (至于;关于)这两个复合介词在含义上相当接近,但在用法上差别很多。下面谈它们的这些差别。

1.as for

1)用以转换话题:在有前文的情况下as for总是出现在下文的句首,用来引出另外一方或者新的谈话内容,但与前文内容也有一定的联系,起到补充前文又突出后文的作用,使之与前文形成对照,译作“至于”。例如:

①You van have a bed;as for him,he'll have to sleep on the floor.

②Much pasture land is underwater;and as for the grain, most of that has been ruined.

2)用以表现态度:as for还可以用来表示讲话人对某人或某物持有“轻蔑”或“冷淡”的态度,甚至有憎恶之感,讲话时要重读引出的词语并在其后稍作停顿,以示强调,口气上带有嘲讽意味,译作汉语的“至于……嘛”。例如:

①As for you,I never want to see you here in my home again.

②As for his songs,I suppose you've read the sarcastic reviews !

2.as to

1)表示涉及某点:as to常放于句中,表示“关于……方面”、“有关……之事”,但为了突出要提及的人或事之时,也可将as to置于句首,以示强调。但只涉及内容,而不涉及讲话人的态度。例如:

①His wife,an old teacher,has n0 complaint as to salary.

②As to your ability to overfulfil the target,I never had the slightest doubt.

2)用以重提旧事:as to引出的内容都是前文曾经提到过的或
