用法說明
How is "Blow" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Blow"?
blow up vs. blow out
- blow up 通常指「爆炸」或「（用氣體）使膨脹」。它強調物體因內部壓力或外力而破裂或體積變大。
- blow out 則常指「吹熄（火燭）」或「（輪胎）爆裂」。當指爆裂時，它更側重於因內部壓力釋放（如漏氣）而導致的損壞。
- 在比喻用法上，blow up 可表示「（使）發怒」或「（使）情況惡化」，而 blow out 可指「輕易擊敗」或「（風）吹散」。 EN: The soldiers had to blow up the bridge to stop the enemy. 翻譯: 士兵們必須炸毀橋樑以阻止敵軍。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Blow"?Which "Blow" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×The wind is blowing strong.
✓The wind is blowing strongly.
「blow」是動詞，修飾動詞應該用副詞「strongly」，而不是形容詞「strong」。
×He blew the candles.
✓He blew out the candles.
表示「吹熄」蠟燭、火或燈時，通常需要搭配副詞「out」來完整表達意思。單獨使用「blow」意思不完整。
×The storm blew the roof.
✓The storm blew the roof off.
表示強風把某物「吹走、吹掉」時，常需搭配「off」、「away」或「down」等副詞/介系詞，以明確表達結果。
×I will blow a party for my birthday.
✓I will throw/have a party for my birthday.
「blow」沒有「舉辦（派對）」的意思。這是受中文「吹」的引申義影響而產生的誤用。正確動詞應用「throw」、「have」或「host」。
×She blew her nose to the tissue.
✓She blew her nose into a tissue.
表達「把鼻涕擤到…裡面」時，介系詞應用「into」，而不是「to」。
×The fuse was blown.
✓The fuse blew.
「blow」用於保險絲、輪胎等「爆掉、燒斷」時，通常作不及物動詞，使用主動語態。被動語態「was blown」在此情境不自然，可能暗示是人為故意弄斷的。
