中国人最易犯错的30句英语

sweetspot

1. I very like it
I like it very much.
9 {0 y9 J0 n+ M
2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
; Q* ?; I6 D6 I- `. y& K7 M
The price is very suitable for me.
  S. i7 m* n0 n5 K& V+ P3 L" \
The price is right.

Ｎｏｔｅ：suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上，如：下列节目儿童不宜。The following

6 l( V' ^+ p+ z; N) a% cprogramme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。

3. 你是做什么工作的呢？What’s your job?

( b( t' f) i* H! K# HAre you working at the moment?
4 R+ S7 l3 j9 @) k3 @( q
& q/ W- G5 L9 L3 K5 E$ k9 tＮｏｔｅ：what’s your
$ I: o- F$ n) f2 L3 b" |% ]& P
job这种说法难道也有毛病吗？是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业，如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子，所以您要问：目前您是在上班吗？Are you working
  ^$ |! r. r+ q) C$ O4 X3 s" [6 |
at the moment?接下来您才问：目前您在哪儿工作呢？Where are you working these days?或者您从事哪个行业呢？What

& n$ e: Z) D* L  J, l0 gline of work are you in?顺带说一下，回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点，不要只是说经理或者秘书

4. 用英语怎么说？How to say?

How do you say this in English?
5 ~- `9 p* k0 T# ^6 M! D/ ~
2 i: o' B" }1 \7 j# E, @! L+ GＮｏｔｅ：How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一，这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有：请问这个词如何拼写？How do you
1 _0 P1 O  P% ^+ n7 q$ b% a
spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读？How do you pronounce this word?
7 r, t" D" i- z. U0 f
- y+ |  f' `0 p9 H' y* [) k9 }% R0 K5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow?
9 b. O, ~6 @1 L1 o% y8 R2 x
Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
/ V. }1 \1 D+ s2 K
% ]. i; R$ K( C' O) C; @用I have something to

do来表示您很忙，这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做，躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙，脱不开身：I’m tied

% u" R8 Y6 f2 P$ N. p! C" @! \# ?up.还有其他的说法：I’m I can’t make it at that time. I’d love to, but I can’t, I
" N+ _; r2 }/ h" ?% X% t2 E' y. g# v7 A
6 b" P  D" `7 F  S" ~have to stay at home.

! `+ I# _7 m9 t8 T6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.
! g' w1 x7 s; a! B3 S  ~
I don’t have an English name.

Ｎｏｔｅ：许多人讲英语犯这样的错误，从语法角度来分析，可能是语法功底欠缺，因为have在这里是实义动词，而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以，这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。
' N% H6 K2 f; U' i( E
  r7 |0 L8 J0 G( d明白道理是一回事，习惯是另一回事，请您再说几话：我没有钱；I don’t have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹；I don’t have any

# S6 P* G, }0 s0 Cbrothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.
0 m2 ?7 w4 v. |7 _6 P7 N
7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t.
3 f/ a  `0 @7 K: T" z) P
I don’t think I can.
3 x0 C  Z: f, U% c: p$ Q/ m& X
Ｎｏｔｅ：这一组然是个习惯问题，在语法上称为否定前置，这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候，英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候，只要您留心，也会习惯英语的说法的，
* ?; [! \5 `7 I4 i5 o4 J+ [
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.
; q; r: u' x9 s9 s3 V
I am not a very good dancer either.

3 `8 [0 Q7 r9 x8 ]0 AＮｏｔｅ：当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候，英语里面通常用not good at something，英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到：我不是一个好的舞者。

9. 现在几点钟了？What time is it now?
( G% ^" K+ L+ N/ ]# I
What time is it, please?
- Y9 D' V, {  G' U9 s3 V9 L% G" _
Ｎｏｔｅ：What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子，讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it
+ C% e( d. S9 }& t
2 d* \7 Z3 z% wyesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是：请问现在几点了？还有一种说法是：How are we

% B3 e/ f  M7 ~* k0 Cdoing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适

" G  k2 x; Y0 H% P* N' N4 {10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor.

% i3 b! J' \1 A2 X- W7 uI am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.

Ｎｏｔｅ：有人开玩笑说，全中国人最擅长的一句英文是：My English is poor.实话说，我从来没有遇到一个美国人对我说：My Chinese is

9 P  r. B3 K# x% V% Dpoor. 无论他们的汉语是好是坏，他们会说: I am still having a few problem, but I getting better.
2 d* L2 t( i( {) u8 {, S; N
当您告诉外国人，您的英语很poor，so what(那又怎么样呢)，是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢，还是说我的英语不好，咱们不谈了吧。

另外一个更大的弊端是，一边不停的学英语，一边不停地说自己的英语很poor,这正像有个人一边给车胎充气，又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。

) g3 r9 I8 b( ~+ ~6 I我坚信，先不谈别的，如果您现在就苦下功夫，把这本薄薄的《英语５４３２１》吃通吃透，您的英语水平立即就会迅速的提高。所以您再也不用说：我的英语很poor.
* M" M( H: f  S
" Z0 S0 n" o3 d  d9 ^您可以实事求事地说，我的英语还不算十分流利，但至少我在进步。

; X2 l' r4 {" w$ T% l" W; T, qWould you like to come to our party on Friday night?

  u% z) @1 s) K$ J4 D& g4 Y1 nＮｏｔｅ：join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会，如：join a health club; join the Communist

Party.事实上，常常与party搭配的动词的come 或者go。如go a wild party，或者come to a Christmas Party。

. ?" Y# W! h3 Q* F- F& S9 ^2 B以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多，只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为of

course后面隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦！难道我是一个傻瓜吗？”因此，of
