instead of 和instead 区别：
1、词性不同。instead of是短语介词，意思是“代替”、“而不是”。instead 是副词，意思是“代替”、“顶替”。
例如： Shall we have fish instead of meat today?
我们今天吃鱼不吃肉，好吗？
Give me the red box instead of the yellow one.
把那个红色的盒子给我，不是这个黄色的。
2、使用方式不同，instead 一般用在句末，如位于句首时常用逗号与后面阁开。与instead of不同，nstead of后面一般接名词、代词、动名词或介词短语作它的宾语。instead 在顺接句子中作“代替”讲，而在转折(或逆转)句子中作“然而”讲。
例如： Last summer I went to Qingdao. This summer I’m going to Dalian instead.
去年夏天我去了青岛。今年夏天我将去大连。
Lily isn't here.Ask Lucy instead.Lily
不在这儿，去问Lucy吧。注意：当instead在祈使句中时，只能位于句末。
3、特殊句子表现意思不同。instead这个副词时，句子中的动作是被“取”的，即要去做的，而用instead of时，of后面的动是被“舍”的，即不去做的。例如：
Last summer I went to Qingdao. This summer I'm going to Dalian instead.
去年夏天我去了青岛。今年夏天我将去大连。
Instead of going to Qingdao I'm going to Dalian this year.
今年我将去大连，而不去青岛。
4、instead 与instead of可以转换。例如：
He didn't answer me,instead,he asked me another question → He asked me another question instead of answering me.
他不知道答案但是我告诉他了其他方式。
I'll of instead of her.→She won't go.I'll go instead.
我代替她去了。
扩展资料：
instead of sth/doing sth 代替，而不是 (这个地方考的较多的就是instead of doing sth，也是就说如果of后面跟动词，要用动名词形式，也就是动词的ing形式）.
如：I will go instead of you. 我将代替你去。
