as well as意思是“既……又……”、“此外”。其遵循的是就远原则,即谓语动词要与该结构前面的主语保持一致。除了as well as还有but,besides,as much as,along with,in addition to等也要遵循就远原则。
as well as的用法
as well as 在和动词连用的时候,通常译为“两者一样好”。
eg;He can speak English as well as Chinese.(他英语说得跟汉语一样好)。

需要注意的是,此时仍然遵循侧重点在前半部分的规律,不能翻译为“他汉语说得跟英语一样好”。
在连接两个物或人的时候,侧重点通常在前者,即A as well as B 的侧重点在A.
eg:Mary as well as Lily is playing basketball.(Mary 跟 Lily一样,也正在打篮球)。
注意这里用的谓语动词是单数形式,因为as well as 连接的两个人和物,侧重点在前者,这里的主语只有as well as前面的部分,即Mary,因此用谓语单数形式。
