dressed in a smart black suit 是过去分词短语作伴随方式状语。
一般说来,如果由分词短语或句子充当状语,放在主要句子前需要用逗号隔开,放在后面则不需要逗号 (除非句子很长,为了考虑读者读起来不至于过分气促用逗号隔开外)。在这句子中,He left home 仅有三个词,而分词短语也只有七个词,完全可以一口气读下来,因此无需用逗号隔开。
以下是该意思的几种表达方法:
* He left home dressed in a smart black suit. (状语后置)
* Dressed in a smart black suit, he left home. (状语前置)
* He was dressed in a smart black suit and left home. (把状语改为一个完整的句子后与原来的句子的谓语动词并列)
* After he was dressed in a smart black suit, he left home. (状语从句在前)
* He left home after he was dressed in a smart black suit. (状语从句在后)
