請問此句中，rather做何解呢？為何會這樣用？
Next week, Monday,
I'd send you all those materials and rather deliver them
to you personally.
謝謝

2014-07-02 21:47:00這裡的rather 有 instead的意味
用and 當連結詞的話 我想這裡是指 甚至 的意思

2014-07-02 22:33:00and (I'd/I would) rather deliver them to youpersonally (than deliver by courier/UPS/mail/...)personally (than deliver them by courier/UPS/mail/...)和尋常方式比較起來，親自送 能表達誠意/歉意（也可以當面道歉）(畢竟重點不是在送抵方式上，所以不需要刻意把後頭略掉的(能意會的)部份講清楚---假設另外還有「更有誠意/更能表達歉意」的（一般）遞送方式，那句會是另外的寫法(我只是打個比方，不要又在"遞送方式的字面敘述"上鑽)

2014-07-03 08:41:00Actually, the original sentence is faulty. It's not real English.I think it should be something like, "I'll send you thematerials rather than bringing them to you personally."

2014-07-03 21:32:00按照樓上的邏輯，rather 有 instead的意味，對吧？
send跟deliver...personally 它們是不是衝突?(B大想的是這個嗎?)

2014-07-04 13:09:00語意怪，到底郵寄還面交？英文應是rather "than" deliver!
