常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Bored"?Which "Bored" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I am boring.
✓I am bored.
使用 'bored' 表示感到無聊的人；'boring' 形容令人感到無聊的事物。
×I bored with my job.
✓I am bored with my job.
'Bored' 是形容詞，描述狀態，前面需要 be 動詞 (am/is/are/was/were)。
×I feel boring.
✓I feel bored.
'Feel' 是連綴動詞，後面接形容詞描述主語的狀態。主語是人時，應使用 'bored'。
×I am boring of this movie.
✓I am bored of this movie.
表達對某事感到厭煩的正確介系詞是 'bored of' 或更常見的 'bored with'。'Boring of' 是錯誤的。
×This book makes me boring.
✓This book makes me bored.
'Make someone + 形容詞' 表示 '使某人處於某種狀態'。書使人感到無聊，所以人處於 'bored' 的狀態。
×I am very boring at home.
✓I am very bored at home.
此句想表達主語（我）的感受，因此應使用 'bored'。'Boring' 是用來形容主語本身很無趣，意思完全不同。
