   区别一:old 通常的比较级和最高级分别是 older, oldest。可用于人或物,可用作表语或定语,可与 than 连用。如:


  He is older than me. 他比我年纪大。
  I’m two years older than he. 我比他大两岁。
  The cathedral is the oldest building in the city. 这座教堂是城里最古老的建筑。
  区别二:elder 与 eldest 1 主要用于家人之间表明长幼关系。通常只用于人而不用于物,只用作定语而不用作表语,也不与 than 连用。如:
  This is my eldest son (daughter). 这是我的大儿子(女)。
  His elder brother (sister) works in a clothing factory. 他哥哥(姐姐)在一家服装厂工作。
  注:在美国英语中,也可用 older, oldest 表示长幼关系。如:
  older brother 哥哥 oldest daughter 最大的女儿
  elder 与 eldest 的区别是:前者指两者中年纪较大的, 而后者指三者或三者以上的年纪最大的。如:
  one’s elder son 指两个儿子中年纪较大的一个
  one’s eldest son 指三个或三个以上的儿子中年纪最大的一个
  区别三:elder 和 eldest 作为形容词,通常只能用作定语,不用作表语;但若不是用作形容词(即其后不接名词)而是用作名词,则可以用作表语(此时通常有冠词或物主代词修饰)。如:
  Jim is my eldest. 吉姆是我最大的孩子。
  I’m the eldest in the family. 我是全家年纪最大的。
  He was the elder of the two sons. 他是两个儿子中较大的。
  He is my elder by two years. / He is two years older than I. 他比我大两岁。

adj.最年长的,最年老的
  • The King's eldest son is the heir to the throne.国王的长子是王位的继承人。
  • The castle and the land are entailed on the eldest son.城堡和土地限定由长子继承。
