韦氏高阶词典sake有如此一个例句:Let'sassume, for argument's sake, that it was a mistake. = Let's assume, for thesake of argument, that it was a mistake. [=let's say for now that it was amistake so that we can see how that will affect our discussion]为了便于讨论,大家假设这是不对的。
后面这个:let's say for nowthat it was a mistake so that we can see how that will affect our discussion,不太了解,能否从结构上剖析一下这个句子,
let's say含义是“倘若”,fornow that不太了解为何这么用。
for now是状语,暂且,暂时。that从句是say的宾语从句。你把for now that 连在一块,是误读。
