Разница между Like и As в английском языке

Урок 117
A

Like = ‘similar to’, ‘the same as’ - как (что-либо); подобно (чему-либо); такой, как. В этом смысле использовать as нельзя:

В этих предложениях, likeпредлог. Так, за ним следует существительное (like a palace), местоимение (like me / like this) или форма -ing (like walking).

Вы также можете сказать ‘... like (somebody/something) doing something’:

B

Иногда like = например:

Вы также можете использовать such as (= например):

C

As = in the same way as, or in the same condition as – таким же образом, как; точно так же, как. Мы используем as перед подлежащим + сказуемое:

Like также возможно в неформальном разговорном английском:

Сравните as и like:

Заметьте, что мы говорим as usual / as always:

D

Иногда as (+ подлежащее + сказуемое) имеет другие значения. Например, после do:

Мы также говорим as you know / as I said / as she expected / as I thought и др. :

Like обычно не используется в этих выражениях, за исключением глагола say (like I said – как я сказал):

E

As также может быть и предлогом, но значение будет отличаться от like. Сравните:

  • Sue Casey is the manager of a company. As the manager, she has to make many important decisions.
    (As the manager = in her position as the manager.)
    Сью Кейси – менеджер/управляющая компании. Как менеджеру/Будучи управляющей, ей приходится принимать много важных решений.
  • Mary Stone is the assistant manager. Like the manager (Sue Casey), she also has to make important decisions.
    (Like the manager = similar to the manager)
    Мэри Стоун – помощница менеджера. Как и менеджеру, ей также приходится принимать важные решения.

As (предлог) = в качестве - in the position of, in the form of etc. :
