一、另起話題

這種情況最常見，沒有實際的含義，只用來另起話題：

1.Anyway, I have to go now. I'm already late. 好了，我得走了，已經(jīng)遲到了。

2.Anyway, let's forget about that for the moment. 好了，我們暫時忘了那事兒吧。

二、除了……

含以上接近 besides：

It's too expensive and anyway the color doesn't suit you. 這太貴了，而且顏色也不適合你。

三、（盡管）……還是……

句子里并沒有表示「盡管」的單詞，通常和 but 連用：

1.He's far from perfect, but she loves him anyway. 盡管他遠不及完美，但她還是愛他。

2.No one expected house prices to fall, but anyway that's exactly what happened. 盡管沒有人預料到房價會降，但后來的確是降了。

四、至少……（用來表示不太確定）

She works in a bank. She did when I last saw her, anyway. 她在銀行工作，至少上次見她的時候是的。

五、到底……；究竟……

常用于問句：

What did you come here for anyway? 你來這里到底是為了什么？

注意，這里的 for 構成的搭配是 come for，而不是 for anyway。

What do you want from me, anyway? 你究竟想從我這里得到什么？。
