这句有语法错误吗,如果有请指出
There is no fate but what we make

Answer 1

可以肯定地说,这句话没有语法错误.
but在大家较熟悉的词性中多为介词、连词、副词.
实际上,英语中But可以用作可被用作关系代词,引导定语从句,这种情况往往是先行词具有否定含义或被否定.
此时,But意义上相当于 who not或that not,即用在否定词或具有否定意义的词后,构成双重否定. 如：
1）There is no mother but loves her children．没有不爱自己孩子的母亲.
(相当于There is no mother who doesn't love her children)
2）There was no one present but knew the story already．在场的人都知道这个故事.
（相当于There was no one present who didn't know the story already)
3）There is no man but errs. 没有任何人能够不犯错误.
(相当于There is no man who does not err.)
同样,你的问题There is no fate but what we make相当于There is no fate what we won't make,直译：没有命运我们不能应对
意译：命运掌握在我们自己手中
但要注意,But这种用法只有在but 前有先行词的时候才有此用法!请比较下面这个例句：
He did nothing after graduation but spend his parents' money. 他毕业之后无所事事,就知道花爸妈的钱.该句中but是介词的用法,有转折的意义.
