not at all除了表示「哪裡的話,別客氣」,還有什麼其他用法?

Not at all是否定式,不如連肯定式at all等也一併討論。以下透過例句,來展示其用法:

(1) 肯定式:
I was surprised at his coming at all.
他居然來了,我很奇怪。
I doubt whether it's true at all.
我懷疑這件事究竟是否真的。
He'll go anywhere at all to get a job.
只要找到一份工作,去哪裏他都願意。
(2) 否定式:
I didn't enjoy it at all.
對此我毫不欣賞。
A: Thank you so much.
B: Not at all.
(或You are welcome.)
(3) 疑問式:
Do you believe it at all?
你到底相不相信?
(4) 條件句:
He doesn't eat much, if at all.
他即使吃,也吃得很少。
