用法說明

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

benefit from doing vs would benefit to do

  • benefit from doing 是最常見且正確的結構,表示「從做某事中獲益」。介系詞 from 是必要的,後面接動名詞 (V-ing)。
  • would benefit to do 是一個常見的錯誤。benefit 作為動詞時,後面不能直接接不定詞 (to + V) 來表示受惠的動作。
  • 若要表達「某人/某物會因做某事而受益」,應使用 would benefit from doing
  • 在正式寫作中,benefit by doing 有時也會出現,但 benefit from doing 是更普遍、更推薦的用法。 EN: Companies can benefit from investing in employee training. 翻譯: 公司可以從投資員工培訓中受益。

EN:A good night's sleep would benefit from turning off electronic devices.

翻譯:睡個好覺會受益於關掉電子設備。

總結建議

建議一律使用 benefit from doing 的結構,避免使用 benefit to do

常見錯誤

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

×I benefit to join the club.

I benefit from joining the club.

作為動詞時,'benefit' 後面通常接 'from' 來表示從某事物中獲益,而不是接 'to'。

×This policy will benefit to the community.

This policy will benefit the community.

當 'benefit' 作為及物動詞時,後面直接接受益的對象,不需要加 'to'。

×She benefited a lot of the training.

She benefited a lot from the training.

表示從某事物中獲益時,'benefit' 後面需要 'from' 來引出具體來源。'a lot' 是修飾獲益的程度,不能取代 'from'。

×The company is benefitting by the new technology.

The company is benefiting from the new technology.

動詞 'benefit' 的現在分詞/動名詞拼寫為 'benefiting' 和 'benefited'(過去式/過去分詞),只有一個 't'。介系詞應使用 'from' 而非 'by' 來表示獲益來源。

×It benefits for everyone to participate.

It benefits everyone to participate.

當 'benefit' 作為及物動詞時,後面直接接受詞(everyone),不需要 'for'。使用 'for' 是受到名詞用法 'a benefit for someone' 的影響。

×He made benefit from the situation.

He benefited from the situation.

表達「從...獲益」的正確動詞是 'benefit (from)',而不是使用 'make benefit' 這個不存在的片語。這是受其他語言表達方式影響的直譯錯誤。
