摘要:核心区别:`if` —— 侧重 条件("是否"带假设性)`whether` —— 侧重 选择("是否"用于明确二选一)✅ 只能用 `whether` 的情况1️⃣ 介词后:- ❌ It depends on if...- ✅ It depends on whe

核心区别:

`if` —— 侧重 条件("是否"带假设性)

`whether` —— 侧重 选择("是否"用于明确二选一)

✅ 只能用 `whether` 的情况

1️⃣ 介词后:

- ❌ It depends on if...

- ✅ It depends on whether it rains.

2️⃣ 不定式前:

- ❌ She can't decide if to go.

- ✅ She can't decide Whether to go.

3️⃣ 名词后(作同位语):

- ❌ The question if he'll come...

- ✅ The question whether he'll come...

4️⃣ 正式写作中(尤其是学术/法律文件)

- ✅ Please confirm whether you accept the terms.

✅ 只能用 `if` 的情况

1️⃣ 纯条件句(无"是否"含义):

- ✅ I'll call you if I need help.(假设条件)

- ❌ I'll call you whether I need help. (错误!意思变成"无论是否需要都会打电话")

2️⃣ 虚拟语气:

- ✅ If I were you, I'd apologize.

- ❌ Whether I were you... (完全错误)

两者通用的情况

在 宾语从句 中表示"是否"时(口语常见):

- ✅ I wonder if/whether she's coming.

- ✅ Ask him if/whether he finished the report.

⚠️ 但注意:

- 句首时只用 `Whether`:

- ❌ If he agrees doesn't matter.

- ✅ Whether he agrees doesn't matter.

经典对比案例

1️⃣ Tell me if you're sick.

= 只有生病时才告知(隐含条件)

2️⃣ Tell me whether you're sick.

= 明确要求回答"生病or不生病"

记忆口诀

"Whether 二选一,if 假设要牢记;

介词、不定式,whether 绝不弃!"
