[quote=ABIGAIL294,435590]I'm confused about the meaning of 除了 because I've seen it translated as both "except for" and "in addition to"/“besides". In my understanding of English, this first translation has a very different, almost opposite meaning, from the second two translations. Let's say A, B, and C are all parts of group D. If I say "except for A, I like D", that means I like B and C but not A. A sentence using "in addition to" or "besides", on the other hand, obviously includes all the parts mentioned. So what's the deal with 除了? Which one does it mean? [mood7] [/quote]
