常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Athletic"?Which "Athletic" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×He is an athletic.
✓He is athletic.
在中文裡，「運動員」是一個名詞，但英文的 'athletic' 是形容詞，意思是「有運動天賦的；健壯的」。要指「運動員」這個人，應該用名詞 'athlete'。
×He has a very sporty build.
✓He has a very athletic build.
雖然 'sporty' 和 'athletic' 都與運動有關，但 'athletic' 更強調體格健壯、肌肉發達、有運動員般的體魄。'Sporty' 則更常形容風格（如運動風服裝）或對運動的興趣，較少直接用來描述體格。
×She runs very athletic.
✓She runs very athletically.
'Athletic' 是形容詞，用來修飾名詞。要修飾動詞（如 'runs'），必須使用副詞形式 'athletically'，意思是「以運動員般的方式；敏捷地」。
×I go to the gym to look more athletic.
✓I go to the gym to get more fit / to build a more athletic physique.
'Athletic' 通常描述一種天生的或長期訓練形成的整體身體素質和能力，而不僅僅是外表「看起來」健康。'Fit' 或 'in good shape' 更常用來描述通過鍛鍊達到的健康狀態。如果想強調體格，可以說 'athletic build' 或 'athletic physique'。
×The school will hold an athletic next month.
✓The school will hold an athletic event / meet / competition next month.
'Athletic' 作為形容詞，不能單獨用作事件名稱。必須與一個名詞如 'event'（活動）、'meet'（運動會）、'competition'（比賽）或 'program'（計畫）連用。
