It's time to talk seriously about a word that no-no, but worries everyone, because it can often be found. There are many such words. So we need specifics. The participle "previous" is our object of study.
Meaning
In general, if you spread out the word, the following will come out: "this is the one who walks behind something." Today is Friday and the previous day is Thursday. The world is filled with examples of this kind. For example, there is the film "Terminator 2: Judgment Day", and in relation to it, the first is the previous part. If you don't like cybernetic organisms, then you can think of any movie that consists of parts, for example, Back to the Future. In the epoch-making motion picture 3 parts. This means that there the sacrament can occur as much as twice.
You can leave movies alone and think about ordering food at a restaurant. A man comes and orders an omelet. Then he visits the same place the next day, and he is asked: “Would you like to submit the same as in the previous order?” It begs. To summarize, we can say that the previous one is a branch of the past in the language, evidence thatIn general, a person has memory as a tool for interacting with the world.
Now that we have fully realized the full importance of the word, we can also reveal the secret of its meaning: “Former, immediately before the present, previous.”
As you can see, everything is painfully simple. Indeed, why complicate things?
Offers
The Word is always in the team of its twins. They form a sentence, stories, novels, novels are made up of sentences, but not only. It’s not possible to write a novel quickly, but we are quite able to compose sentences to illustrate:
- The young writer's previous novel was a masterpiece. But this is probably not surprising, because that novel was the first. And with the second, things are usually much more difficult.
- In the previous part of the film, all the main characters died. I wonder what will be shown in subsequent films, because nine more parts are planned?
- Your previous hairstyle is something! And the real one? She's fine.
Composing sentences is not such a difficult task. The main thing here is to realize the meaning and understand it well, and then no problems are foreseen. As homework, you can come up with 20 similar sentences, if there is a desire and need. We're not at school.
Synonyms
After the meaning of the word "previous" is left behind, we can consider those words that could replace it. The list is expected to be notable, and itfollows:
- last;
- former;
- past;
- former;
- past.
Not many words. But why are there so many? Seems like these are enough. Yes, the previous one is an interesting topic. But we need to discuss a question that is perhaps obvious only if we are talking about people. Compare two sentences:
- This is my previous one.
- This is my ex.
It's interesting that the first case of the previous one can be anything: a car, an apartment, a tennis racket, a version of the explanation of how the world works. And when we talk about the former, then she can only be her - a girl! The reader can easily and freely say that we are composing, but we do not insist on our hypothesis. In this case, this is nothing more than an interesting observation that we want to share with the reader. The most important thing was to consider the synonyms of the word "previous", we did it, so allow me to take a bow.
