常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Blunder"?Which "Blunder" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×He blundered to make a mistake.
✓He blundered by making a mistake.
「blunder」作為動詞時，通常不接不定詞（to do）來表示犯錯的方式。正確用法是使用「by + V-ing」或直接接名詞片語來描述所犯的錯誤。
×I blundered a cup of coffee.
✓I spilled a cup of coffee.
「blunder」意指因愚蠢或粗心而犯下嚴重錯誤或失策，通常與決策、行動或言論相關，而非指意外打翻物品這種具體的物理失誤。打翻東西應用「spill」或「knock over」。
×It was just a small blunder.
✓It was just a small mistake.
「blunder」本身帶有「嚴重、愚蠢、明顯」的錯誤含義，通常不用「small」、「tiny」等形容輕微錯誤的詞來修飾。若要表示小錯誤，應使用「mistake」或「error」。
×She blundered the exam.
✓She failed the exam badly.
「blunder」通常不直接以考試、測驗等作為受詞。它更常指在過程或行動中犯錯，導致糟糕結果。表達考試考得很差，應使用「fail badly」或「make serious mistakes on」。
×Don't blunder to say that again.
✓Don't make the blunder of saying that again.
使用祈使句直接警告他人不要犯錯時，較少單獨使用動詞「blunder」開頭。更自然的說法是使用「make the blunder of + V-ing」或「don't make the mistake of...」。動詞「blunder」更常用於描述已發生的錯誤行為。
