问题: now and then

every now and then和now and then有区别么?什么意思?

解答:

根据<<美国传统词典[双解]>>的解释:
1。every now and then 或 every now and again:
(1)From time to time; occasionally.
不时地,时常地;偶尔地
(2) every once in a while
From time to time; occasionally.
不时地;偶尔地
2。now and then 或 now and again
(1)Occasionally. 偶尔地

据我的理解,now and then。事件发生的频率要低一些。
every now and then 。事件发生的频率要稍高一些。
