The particle

§ 254. The particle is a part of speech the meaning of which is difficult to define. It either emphasizes or limits the meaning of another word, or phrase, or clause. Particles are invariable and have no syntactical function in the sentence. They form a whole with the part of the sentence (a word or a phrase) they refer to.

Particles may combine with any part of speech.

Don’t worry – that’s just Aunt Fanny practising her balancing act.

- John is very proud of his daughter. - I should just think so.

Isn’t that just beautiful?

She lives just round the corner.

I said just what I thought.

Just as we thought the sun would sink, it grew still redder.

Particles generally stand before the word they refer to but they may also follow it. This book is for advanced students only.

According to their meaning particles fall into six groups.

1. Intensifying particles:

just, even, yet, still, all, simply.

They emphasize the meaning of the word (or phrase, or clause) they refer to or give special prominence to the notion expressed by it.

The skirt comes just below my knees.

They even offered him higher wages.

Maggie felt all the safer for that.

These days we’re working with still greater efficiency.

We had yet another discussion.

The particles all, still, yet, mostly intensify the comparative degree of adjectives and adverbs.

Play yet more softly.

2. Limiting particles:

only, merely, solely, but, alone.

They single out the word or phrase they refer to or limit the idea (notion) expressed by them.

I only wanted to ask you the time.

Man cannot live on bread alone.

Time alone will show who was right.

She is still but a child, she wants to play.

Mr. Green merely hinted at the possibility.

Just, merely, simply can be used at the beginning of imperative sentences.

You don’t have to be present. Just (merely, simply) send a letter of explanation.

3. Specifying particles:

right, exactly, precisely, just.

They make the meaning of the word or phrase they refer to more precise.

Draw a circle right in the middle of the map (точно, прямо по середине).

We were just about to start (как раз собирались...).

They arrived precisely at ten (ровно, точно в десять).

The room looks exactly as it did when I was here last year (точно так, как).

What exactly do you mean (что именно...)?

4. The additive particle else. It combines only with indefinite, interrogative and negative pronouns and interrogative adverbs. It shows that the word it refers to denotes something additional to what has already been mentioned:

Something else, nobody else, what else, where else.

5. The negative particle not.

Not a word was said about it.

Not saying anything was a bad idea.

Not everyone likes this book.

Do you want to go? - Not me!

6. Connecting particles: also, too, which may function as conjuncts (see § 253 on conjuncts).

Were you at the film? - I was also there.

I went there too.
