It does the same job as except它跟except做的是同一件事, though actually excepting feels more careful, a little old-fashioned不過其實excepting給人的感覺比較講究、有點老派, and more at home in writing, notices, and legal language than in ordinary chat比較常出現在書面文字、公告和法律用語裡，而不是日常聊天中 — most people just say except大部分人就只會說except。

You can also flip it: “not excepting” means you are folding that person in too. “Everyone was tired, not excepting the teacher” means the teacher was tired as well. It can sit before a noun (“excepting children”) or before a whole little phrase (“excepting when it rains”).

You can also flip it你也可以把它反過來用: "not excepting" means you are folding that person in too「not excepting」的意思是你要把那個人也算進去。"Everyone was tired, not excepting the teacher" means the teacher was tired as well「Everyone was tired, not excepting the teacher」意思是老師也一樣累。It can sit before a noun它可以放在一個名詞前面 ("excepting children"「excepting children」，意思是小孩除外) or before a whole little phrase或是放在一整個小片語前面 ("excepting when it rains"「excepting when it rains」，意思是下雨的時候除外)。
