常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Addictive"?Which "Addictive" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×He has an addictive.
✓He has an addiction.
「addictive」是形容詞，意為「使人上癮的」。要表達「上癮」這個名詞概念，應使用「addiction」。
×I am addictive to this game.
✓I am addicted to this game.
「addictive」描述事物本身的特性（使人上癮的）。描述人的狀態（對...上癮的）應使用「addicted」。
×This drug is addictive for many people.
✓This drug is addictive to many people.
描述「對某人來說是上癮的」時，習慣搭配介系詞「to」，而非「for」。
×That game looks very addictive.
✓That game looks very addictive. (Correct as is)
原句是正確的。常見錯誤是在「looks」後省略「be」動詞，例如誤寫成「That game looks addictive.」雖然此句正確，但學習者可能誤以為「look」是及物動詞而寫出「That game looks us addictive.」這類錯誤句子。正確結構是「主詞 + 連綴動詞 (look/seem/become) + addictive」。
×Drinking coffee every morning is addictive.
✓Drinking coffee every morning is a habit. / Caffeine can be addictive.
「addictive」通常指會導致生理或心理強烈依賴、難以戒除的事物。一般的「習慣」或「慣例」應用「habit」或「habit-forming」（較輕微）。將所有習慣都稱為「addictive」是誇大用詞。
