常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Accurate"?Which "Accurate" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×His answer was very correct.
✓His answer was very accurate.
在描述數據、測量、描述或資訊與事實相符時，應使用 'accurate'（準確的），而非 'correct'（正確的）。'Correct' 多用於答案、行為或判斷是對的。
×She is accurate at her job.
✓She is accurate in her work.
描述在某方面準確時，介系詞通常用 'in'（在...方面），或用 'with'（對待...時）。'At' 通常用於描述技能，如 'good at'，但與 'accurate' 搭配不自然。
×This map is not accurate enough to use for hiking.
✓This map is not detailed enough to use for hiking.
'Accurate' 強調資訊正確無誤，而 'detailed' 強調內容詳細。地圖可能很準確（位置正確），但若不夠詳細，仍不適合徒步旅行。
×His watch is more accurate than mine.
✓His watch keeps better time than mine.
雖然語法上正確，但在描述鐘錶走時精準時，更地道的說法是 'keep good/bad time' 或 'is precise'。'Accurate' 用於此處稍顯正式且不常見。
×Please accurate your report before submitting it.
✓Please make your report accurate before submitting it.
'Accurate' 是形容詞，不能直接當動詞使用。應使用動詞片語如 'make something accurate'、'ensure something is accurate' 或使用動詞 'correct'、'verify'。
×It's an accurate information.
✓It's accurate information. / It's a piece of accurate information.
'Information' 是不可數名詞，前面不能加不定冠詞 'an'。可以單獨使用，或用量詞如 'a piece of'。
