"Apart from" is very similar to the phrase"besides" and the phrase "except for." However, when we compare all threephrases, "apart from" is more like "besides." The reason for this is that both "apart from" and "besides" can both include and exclude. "Except for" can only exclude.
「Apart from」與短語「besides」和「except for」非常相似。但是，當我們比較這三個短語時，「apart from」則跟「besides」更像。原因在於「apart from」和「besides」既可以表示包括也可以表示排除。「Except for」只能表示排除。
What do we mean by "include" and"exclude"? If we say "Apart from Jim, we alllike Thai food," that means Jim is excludedfrom the group of people who like Thai food. If we say "Apart from Thai food, we also likeJapanese food and Korean food," we areincluding all of the food in the group of foodwe enjoy. In this sense, it's like saying "inaddition to."
我們所說的「包括」和「排除」是什麼意思呢？如果說「Apart from Jim, we all like Thai food.」 (除了Jim，我們都喜歡泰國菜)，則表示Jim被排除在喜歡泰國菜的人群之外。如果說「Apart from Thai food, we also like Japanesefood and Korean food.」 (除了泰國菜，我們還喜歡日本菜和韓國菜)，就表示包括泰國菜在喜歡的食物之內。這種時候，就和「inaddition to」 (除...之外，還)一個意思。
