英语中的主从复合句可不可以从句中再套从句呢?是不是可以无限套下去,语法也是对的?

Answer 1

完全可以,英语的语言规则是很严谨的,只要按照从句的规则写,不会出现理解上的问题.当然,套得越多,要顾及的地方就越多,对作者的要求就越高.
从句嵌套的数量最好限制在三四个以内.无限套的话,那么说这句话就气绝了.
下面给个例子,基本涵盖了从句的几种主要形式.
I think that Finding a special perspective that judges the society,he,who is my brother,saw more than any other sociologist could see.
这里,I think是主句,that后面全是宾语从句.
Finding a special perspective that judges the society是状语从句,里面镶嵌了一个定语从句that judges the society
he,who is my brother saw more than any other sociologist could see.是上面状语从句的主句,里面又镶嵌了一个定语从句who is my brother和另一个宾语从句more than any other sociologist could see.
