梦幻迪士尼-心大星
中国人最容易说错的30句英语
1. I very like it
I like it very much.
2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
The price
is very suitable for me.
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 programme 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?
Are you working at the
moment?
Note:what’s your
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 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
line 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?
Note: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 spell that please?
请问这个单词怎么读?
How do you
pronounce
this word?
5. 明天我有事情要做。
I have something to do tomorrow.
Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
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 up.
6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.
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。
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
brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.
7. 我想我不行。
I think I can’t.
I don’t think I can.
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,
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。
I don’t dance well too.
I am not a very good dancer either.
Note: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?
What time is it,
please?
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 yesterday, 或者what time
is it tomorrow? 所以符合英语习惯
的说法
是:请问现在几点了?What time is it, please?
10. 我的英语很糟糕。
My English is
poor.
I 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 poor. 无论他们的汉语是好是坏,他们会说: I am still
having a
few problem, but I'm getting better.
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。
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。
11. 你愿意参加我们的晚会吗?
Would you like to join our party on Friday?
Would you like to come to our
party on Friday night?
Note: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。
12. 我没有经验。
I have no experience.
I don’t know much about that.
Note:I have no
experience这句话听起来古里古怪,因为您只需要说:那方面
我懂得不多,或者这方面我不在行,就行了。I am not really an expert
in this
area.
13.
我没有男朋友。
I have no boyfriend.
I don’t have a boyfriend.
14. 他的身体很健康。
His
body is healthy.
He is in
good health.
或: He’s healthy.
15. 价钱很昂贵便宜。
The price is
too expensivecheap.
The
price is too high rather low.
16. 我们下了车。
We got off the car.
We got out of the car.
17. 车速快了。
The speed of the
car is fast.
The car
is speeding. Or “The car is going too fast.”
18. 这个春节你回家吗?
Will
you be going back home for the Spring Festival?
是的,我回去。Of course!(这一句是错的)
当然。Sure. Certainly.(这种
说法是正确的)
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
course带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时,用sure或certainly效
果会好得多。同时,of course not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是
certainly not.
19.
我觉得右手很疼。
I feel very painful in my
right hand.
My right hand is
very painful.
或 My right hand
hurts(aches).
20. 他看到她很惊讶。
He looked at her and felt surprised.
He looked at her in
surprise.
21. 我读过你的小说但是没料到你这么年轻。
I have read
your novels but I didn't think you could be so
young.
After having read your novel, I
expected that you would be older.
22. 她脸红了,让我看穿了她的心思。
Her
red face made me see through her mind.
Correct: Her red face told me what she
was thinking.
23.
看到这幅画让我想到了我的童年时代。
The sight
of these pictures made me remember my own
childhood.
Correct: Seeing
these pictures reminded me of my own childhood.
24. 别理她。
Don't pay
attention to her.
Leave her alone.
25.
我在大学里学到了许多知识。
I get a lot of
knowledge in the university.
I learned a lot in university.
26. 黄山正在读书。
Samuel is reading
a book.
Samuel is reading.
27. exciting excited。
28. 我遇到了很多困难。
I am having many difficulties.
I am having a few problems lots of
problems.
29. 请快点走,否则我们会迟到的。
Please hurry to walk
or we'll be late.
Please
hurry up or we'll be late.
30. 她由嫉妒转向失望。
She was so
jealous that she became desperate.
