常見錯誤

What are common mistakes with "Amazing"?Which "Amazing" sentences look correct but are wrong?

×I am amazing.

I am amazed.

使用 'amazing' 表示令人驚嘆的事物。當描述自己感到驚嘆時,應使用被動語態 'amazed'。

×It's an amazing.

It's amazing.

'Amazing' 是形容詞,不是可數名詞,前面不需要不定冠詞 'an'。

×He is very amazing.

He is absolutely amazing.

雖然語法上 'very amazing' 可以接受,但在自然英語中,'amazing' 這類極端形容詞常與 'absolutely', 'truly', 'really' 等副詞連用,以加強語氣。

×This food tastes amazingly.

This food tastes amazing.

在感官動詞(如 taste, smell, look, feel)後面,應使用形容詞(amazing)來描述主語的狀態或特性,而不是副詞(amazingly)。

×It's not amazing.

直接說 'not amazing' 可能聽起來過於生硬或負面。在口語中,常使用 'not that amazing' 或 'nothing special' 來更委婉地表達。

×I have an amazing news.

I have amazing news.

'News' 是不可數名詞,前面不能使用不定冠詞 'a' 或 'an'。
