常見錯誤

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

×He looked at the map bewilderedly.

He looked at the map, bewildered.

「bewildered」是形容詞,用來描述主詞的狀態,而非修飾動詞。使用副詞「bewilderedly」雖然存在但極不常見,聽起來不自然。在這種結構中,使用形容詞「bewildered」作為主詞補語或描述性分詞更為地道。

×I am bewildered about the math problem.

I am confused about the math problem.

「bewildered」表示極度困惑、不知所措,通常用於面對複雜、陌生或混亂到令人迷失的情境。對於一般的、程度較輕的「不理解」(如數學題),使用「confused」更為恰當。過度使用「bewildered」會顯得不自然。

×He was bewildered with the new technology.

He was bewildered by the new technology.

表達「因...而感到困惑」時,標準的介系詞是「by」。使用「with」在此情境下是錯誤的。雖然「confused」可以接「about」或「by」,但「bewildered」幾乎總是接「by」。

×The news was bewildered.

The news was bewildering. / I was bewildered by the news.

「bewildered」是描述「人」或「有感知的生物」的感受狀態,意思是「感到困惑的」。事物本身(如新聞、情況)不能「感到困惑」,而是會「令人困惑」,此時應使用現在分詞「bewildering」。這是一個常見的-ed/-ing 形容詞錯誤。

×He is in bewildered state.

He is in a bewildered state.

「state」是可數名詞,當前面有形容詞(如「bewildered」)修飾時,通常需要不定冠詞「a」來表示「一種...的狀態」。省略冠詞是常見錯誤。

×He looked bewidered / bewilderred.

He looked bewildered.

「bewildered」的拼寫容易出錯,常見錯誤是漏掉第一個「e」(bewidered)或重複「r」(bewilderred)。正確拼寫為「bewildered」,源自動詞「bewilder」的過去分詞。
