in addition to; as well as
Used to say that there is something more, in addition to what you already talked about.
用法模式:
besides [something] / besides [doing something]
常见错误:
Learners often confuse 'beside' (next to) with 'besides' (in addition to). 'I sat besides him' is wrong; it should be 'I sat beside him.' Another common mistake is using 'besides' where only 'except' is correct. If you want to exclude something, use the 'except/other than' meaning of 'besides' (sense 3) or use 'except' instead.

moreover; used to add a reason
Used to add another reason or point to what you just said, similar to 'also' or 'moreover'.
用法模式:
Besides, [clause]
常见错误:
Learners sometimes put 'besides' in the wrong place in the sentence. In this meaning it usually comes at the start of a new sentence or clause: 'I’m busy; besides, I’m tired.' It is not natural to say *'I’m besides busy and tired'* in this sense. They also confuse it with 'beside' (next to), which cannot be used as a sentence adverb.
近义词
moreover (Very close in meaning but more formal and more common in written text than in everyday conversation.)
|
anyway (Often used in a similar position but can sound more casual and can change the topic, while 'besides' clearly adds another supporting point.)
反义词
however (Introduces contrast or an opposite point, while 'besides' introduces an additional supporting point.)

3
except for; other than
Used to say that you do not include something or someone; similar to 'except for' or 'other than'.
用法模式:
besides [someone/something]
常见错误:
Learners often confuse this excluding sense with the 'in addition to' sense. Compare: 'I don’t read any books besides this one' (only this book) versus 'Besides this book, I read many others' (this book plus others). Word order and the rest of the sentence help show if the meaning is 'except' or 'in addition to'. When in doubt, 'except' or 'except for' is safer and clearer for learners.
近义词
except (Very close in meaning; often slightly more common and straightforward for learners in this excluding sense.)
|
other than (A neutral alternative that can replace 'besides' in many excluding contexts.)
反义词
including (Means that something is part of a group, while 'besides' here means it is not part of the group.)
