unless = if not =except if
unless本身就有否定意味,其實就相當於if條件句的否定形式(if not),中文要表達「除非…否則…」、「如果不…」,英文只要用unless就可以,後面一定為肯定句,否則會造成雙重否定的問題。
連接兩句時:句子1 + unless + 句子2,意味著若「句子2」不成立時,就會發生「句子1」這種狀況。
除非;除了在…的情況下
You can't get a job unless you have experience (= you can only get a job if you have experience).
除非有工作經驗,否則你找不到工作。
Unless you call me to say you're not coming, I'll see you at the theatre (= I will see you there if you do not call to say you are not coming).
除非你打電話說你不來了,否則我就在劇院等你。
