Note:Come l'italiano lontano, anche i suoi equivalenti inglesi si possono impiegare in relazione sia allo spazio sia al tempo; vanno comunque distinti gli usi aggettivali da quelli avverbiali. - Come aggettivo, in funzione attributiva lontano si rende con faraway, far-off o distant: un posto lontano tra le montagne = a far-off place in the mountains. In funzione predicativa dopo il verbo to be, se la frase è affermativa lontano si traduce per lo più con away, oppure con a long way away se manca una precisa indicazione di distanza: casa mia è lontana un chilometro = my house is one kilometre away; la chiesa è ancora molto lontana = the church is still a long way away; se invece la frase è negativa o interrogativa, si usa far o far away: è lontana la chiesa? = is the church far?; casa mia non è lontana = my house is not far (away). - Come avverbio, in frase affermativa lontano si può tradurre in vari modi: oggi andiamo lontano = we are driving a long way today; vivo lontano dalla scuola = I live a long way from the school; sentii un cane abbaiare lontano = I heard a dog barking in the distance; in frase negativa e interrogativa, si usa solo far (away) (from): non vivo lontano dalla mia ragazza = I don't live far from my girlfriend; devi andare lontano oggi? = have you got to go far today? - Per questi e altri impieghi, soprattutto idiomatici, della parola lontano e dei suoi equivalenti inglesi, si veda la voce qui sotto* * *lontano/lon'tano/Come l'italiano lontano, anche i suoi equivalenti inglesi si possono impiegare in relazione sia allo spazio sia al tempo; vanno comunque distinti gli usi aggettivali da quelli avverbiali. - Come aggettivo, in funzione attributiva lontano si rende con faraway, far-off o distant: un posto lontano tra le montagne = a far-off place in the mountains.
