回答: 请教个问题 由 smurfette 于 2013-03-12 17:32:35

An Amateur potter herself, the accountant offered to help the artist with his business accounts, complicated as they were by his unusual system of record keeping.

请问划线部分是否正确？是否算原因状语从句的倒装呢？

谢谢！

>>>>> 

1)  This sentence is CORRECT.

2)  The underlined part is an inversion of “as they were complicated by …”, for emphasizing “complicated”.

3) The “as” here means “since”.
