用法說明

How is "Bang" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Bang"?

bang something vs bang on something

  • bang something 通常指直接、用力地撞擊或敲打某個物體,強調動作的對象是該物體本身。
  • bang on something 則強調在一個表面或物體上進行敲擊的動作,常帶有持續、反覆的意味,或用於描述敲門等行為。
  • 在許多情況下,兩者可以互換,但細微差別在於 bang on 更凸顯敲擊的「位置」或「表面」。
  • 當表示頭撞到某物(如門框)時,通常用 bang one's head on something。 EN: He banged the table in frustration. 翻譯: 他氣得猛捶桌子。

EN:Someone is banging on the front door.

翻譯:有人在用力敲前門。

EN:The shutter banged the wall all night in the wind.

翻譯:百葉窗在風中整夜拍打著牆壁。

EN:Stop banging on the piano keys so loudly!

翻譯:別那麼用力地敲鋼琴鍵!

總結建議

一般來說,bang on 更常用於描述反覆敲擊表面或門窗的行為,而 bang 則用於描述單次或直接的撞擊動作。

常見錯誤

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

×He banged the door.

He banged on the door. / He slammed the door.

「bang」作為動詞表示用力敲擊時,通常需要介系詞「on」來指出敲擊的表面(如 bang on the door/table)。若想表達「砰地關上門」,應使用「slam the door」。

×I banged my head to the wall.

I banged my head against the wall. / I banged my head on the wall.

表示頭部撞到牆壁時,正確的介系詞是「against」(強調撞擊的動作)或「on」(強調撞擊的接觸點),而非「to」。

×The fireworks were banging loud.

The fireworks were banging loudly.

「bang」是動詞,修飾動詞應該使用副詞「loudly」來描述「發出巨響的方式」,而非形容詞「loud」。

×She banged the book down angry.

She banged the book down angrily.

描述「用力放下」這個動作時的情緒狀態,應使用副詞「angrily」來修飾動詞「banged」,而非形容詞「angry」。

×My car banged with another car.

My car banged into another car. / My car collided with another car.

表示車輛「碰撞」時,常用「bang into」或更正式的「collide with」。使用「with」時動詞通常為「collide」。

×I will bang you if you don't stop.

I will hit you if you don't stop. (or other appropriate threats)

「Bang」在非正式口語中雖可指性行為,但極其粗俗且帶有攻擊性,絕非「打」或「敲」的通用替代詞。表達「打」應用「hit」、「punch」等。此誤用可能造成嚴重冒犯。
