Question about 除了
Posted by trevorb
August 23, 2010 in the Group General Discussion .
In my head I have a sentence remembered from an Elementary lesson that goes like this.
除了读书什么都不知道
Meaning "apart from Studying what does he know?"
I've struggled to understand how this sentence gets that meaning I think part of it maybe because of the omitted 以外 which I think would be here. --
除了读书以外什么都不知道
Would it be right to brake it down to the following literal translation?
Apart from books everything all not know.
