常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Away"?Which "Away" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×He is an away person.
✓He is an absent person.
「away」是副詞，不能直接修飾名詞。要表達「不在的」或「缺席的」意思時，應使用形容詞「absent」。
×I will away tomorrow.
✓I will go away tomorrow. / I will leave tomorrow.
「away」是副詞，不能單獨作動詞使用。必須與動詞（如 go, run, walk, drive 等）搭配，或直接使用動詞「leave」。
×Keep the children away the fire.
✓Keep the children away from the fire.
表達「遠離某物/某人」時，必須使用片語「away from」，不能省略介系詞「from」。
×The exam is two weeks away from now.
✓The exam is two weeks away.
在表示「距離某個未來時間點還有多久」時，直接用「時間 + away」即可（如 two days away, three months away），加上「from now」是多餘的，因為「away」已隱含「從現在算起」的意思。
×Turn away the light, please.
✓Turn off the light, please.
「away」表示「離開」或「遠離」的狀態，而「off」表示「關閉」或「中斷」的動作。關閉電器、水源等應使用「turn off」或「switch off」。
×The station is far away from here.
✓The station is far from here. / The station is a long way from here.
「far」和「away」在表示距離時意思相近，通常擇一使用即可。「far from」或「a long way from」是更自然的說法。但在「far away」作為固定片語時（如「It's not far away.」）則可接受。
