On a recent program, we talked about present participles.

在最近的一個節目中，我們談到了現在分詞。

The present participle is a word form that ends in I N G and serves several functions in English.

現在分詞是一個以I N G結尾的詞形，在英語中具有多種功能。

One of them is with verbs of perception, also known as sense verbs.

其中之一是用感知動詞，也就是感覺動詞。

These are verbs that describe experiences we have through physical senses such as sight, sound, touch, smell and taste.

這些動詞描述了我們通過視覺、聽覺、觸覺、嗅覺和味覺等物理感官獲得的體驗。

Listen for the sense verb and the present participle.

聽感動詞和現在分詞。

In this sentence, I heard people talking as I entered the hallway here.

在這句話中，當我進入這裡的走廊時，我聽到人們在談論。

The sense verb is here, and the speaker used the verb talk in its present participle form, talking notice that the sentence structure is sense for plus object plus present participle.

感動詞在這裡，說話人用的是動詞talk的現在分詞形式，talking注意，句子結構是sense為加賓語加現在分詞。

The object in the sentence is people after sense verbs.

句中的賓語是意義動詞後的人。

Use of the present participle shows that the speaker experienced Onley part of what happened.

使用現在分詞，表明說話人經歷了Onley的部分事情。

It emphasizes that inaction was in progress or not finished when a speaker experienced it.

它強調說話人經歷不作為時，不作為正在進行或未完成。

This next example also involves a sense verb and the present participle.

接下來這個例子也涉及到意義動詞和現在分詞。

Do you feel the floor shaking.

你感覺到地板在搖晃嗎。

I think the washing machine needs repairs.

我覺得洗衣機需要維修。

The sense verb here is feel, and the verb shake is in its present participle form shaking.

這裡的意義動詞是feel，動詞搖動是現在分詞形式搖動。

The object is the floor use of the present participle.

賓語是現在分詞的地板用法。

In this sentence suggests the speaker felt Onley part of the shaking.

在這句話中，表明說話人覺得Onley也是震動的一部分。
