请问这句话是什么意思?
本帖最后由 mossmoss13 于 2024-3-4 19:58 编辑Just what is reading, anyway? What is it for? Why is it something to argue and worry about? Reading isn’t synonymous with literacy, which is one of the necessary skills of contemporary existence. Nor is it identical with literature, which designates a body of written work endowed with a special if sometimes elusive prestige.
请问最后一句是什么意思? which designates a body of written work endowed with a special if sometimes elusive prestige. if sometimes 是不是一个插入的短语, which designates a body of written work endowed with a specialelusive prestige . literature 那些所谓的文学作品，讲好听点，称呼他们是文学作品，感觉好高贵。
讲难听点，屁都不是。

我理解 if sometimes 相当于 even sometimes，是‘甚至有时候’的意思。
它也不等同于文学——指定一种书写成的作品为主体，被赋予一种特殊的、有时候甚至是难以表述的威望。 Bartleby 发表于 2024-3-5 13:29
