一般目前时中,动词come为何没用comes单数呢?
If you cherish our supreme court, if you cherish the separation of powers, you need to reject the Biden Harris ticket,
come November the 3rd re-elect president Donal Trump, and well stand by that separation powers in a nine seats.
其中,为何是come November the 3rd...如此一种倒装结构,为何不是comes呢?
先看二个词典例句:
The days will be longer when springcomes. =Comespring the days will be longer.
Shell be back in schoolcomeSeptember. = Shell be back in school when Septembercomes.
即Come spring= When spring comes
when引导时间状语从句表示以后时间时,现代英语用一般目前时表示以后。但在早期英语中,when时间从句描述的并非事实,而是设想春季到来,所以从句不需要陈述语气,而用动词原型式虚拟语气表示when从句说的还不是事实:when spring come。此时可以省略连词when,而把虚拟语气动词形式come倒装于主语前,形成Come spring。come是虚拟语气形式。这是古体使用方法。你理解时把它理解成现代英语的 when spring comes即可。
你的句子可以改写如下:
When November the 3rd comes, re-elect president Donal Trump, and well stand by that separation powers in a nine seats.
