① 這裡的“透過”是什麼意思? 是“透過”手段方法的透過? 還是“經過路過”的透過? 如果是後者,by指over surface,從面上過;而through是. in at one end, side, or surface and out at the other。 具體來說:如果有一個平面,無論它怎麼放置,從一邊的表面經過是by,而直接穿過一面都另一面是through,所以by是平面的,而through有立體的感覺。
② 如果“透過”是手段方法,
by = indicating the means of achieving something.
through = by means of (a process or intermediate stage).
by只講結果,因此很“直接”;through側重透過“過程”得到結果,因此有“間接”的含義。
例如:The house was destroyed by tornado, and it has been rebuilt through the help of diasaster relief fund. 這裡Tornado直接作用destroy了house,而fund間接地,透過相關渠道到了屋主手裡,而又透過建築部門,幫助最後完成了重建(through也有at the end of; having (esp successfully) completed,因此這是一致的);透過努力,透過過程,這些都可用through,又如:I learned that through a lot of practice. -- 因此又可看出through比較有感情色彩,而by只是直接陳述(透過某個系統,這些客觀的存在,得到一個真實的結果),所以不透露過程資訊。
I"ll pay you by check --- I"ll pay you by using/writing a check.
I learned that through practice. -- I learned that by practicing.
④ 這只是基本準則,不是一定的,要根據內容來解讀。比如:
I"ll send it to you by/through mail. -- 這裡by和through都可以~。by是客觀機制的產物,through則和系統(經過n多環節)相關。因此by mail,就是透過mail這個機制/手段,得到結果;而through(後面常說the mail),表示mail system。

⑤ by的使用範圍比through普遍。
⑥ by,through和via常常放一起比較~
