adj.形容词
late, latter这两个词的共同意思是“较晚的”“较后的”。其区别是： 1.late指在一个具体时间之后;而latter指一段时间或一个时期的“后一半的”“接近终了的”,还可以指在时间或顺序上的“后者的”“近来的”。例如: She returned in the late afternoon.她下午很晚才返回来。
He mentioned it in the latter part of his speech.他在演讲的后面提到了它。2.late只能用于时间;latter则除了可以用于时间外,还可以用于顺序。例如: The train was ten minutes late.那趟火车晚了10分钟。

adv.副词
late, lately, of late, recently这是一组同根词,都表示时间的“迟”“晚”“近”。其区别是： late的意思是“迟”“晚”,反义词是early;lately的意思是“不久前”“最近”,即not long ago;of late的意思是“最近以来”,强调时间持续的过程;recently的意思是“最近”“近来”,比lately和of late更加庄重。例如: We went to bed late.我们很晚才上床睡觉。

adj.形容词
late的基本意思是“晚的”,可指与规定的、预期的或惯常的时间相比“晚的”“迟的”,也可指在事物本身发展过程中或某一时间单位如年月“晚期的”“后期的”。作这两种解释时可在句中作定语,表语,可用于比较级和最高级。late还可指在时间或顺序上的“新近的”“晚期的”。late用在头衔、人名前可作“已退职〔休〕,新近故去的,前任的”解,这时其前通常须加the,在句中常用作定语,没有比较级和最高级形式。 表示“做某事迟了”, late后接in+ v -ing 。如果动名词后面有宾语, in+ v -ing 形式则可用with代替。在口语中, late可直接跟动名词,省略in。 late用作表语时后接for表示“迟于规定时间做某事”“赶不上做某事”;后接at表示“迟于规定时到达某地”;后接“ in + v -ing ”表示“做某事迟了”;后接of表示“从前”,指从前居住的地方或某人参加的某种组织、协会等。
adv.副词
late用作副词表示“晚”“迟”,指迟于规定〔预期〕时刻,作此解时没有比较级和最高级。late还可表示“末期地”,指到达或接近某事物的后端。 as late as后跟年月日时,不再加介词。 late用于时间时,表示“不久前”。
