常見錯誤

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

×I bought a beautiful ceramics at the market.

I bought a beautiful ceramic piece at the market.

作為不可數名詞時,'ceramics' 泛指陶瓷藝術或製品,不能與 'a/an' 連用。若要指單件物品,應使用 'a ceramic piece/vase/plate' 或 'a piece of ceramics'。

×Ceramics is a popular hobby in our town.

Ceramics are a popular hobby in our town.

當 'ceramics' 指陶瓷製品(多件物品)時,通常視為複數名詞,動詞用複數形式。當指陶瓷藝術、學科或工藝時,可視為單數不可數名詞。此處指從事的活動(製作陶瓷製品),常用複數動詞。

×He works in a ceramics factory.

He works in a ceramic factory.

修飾名詞時,通常使用形容詞 'ceramic',而非名詞 'ceramics'。'ceramic' 用於描述材質或類型,如 ceramic tile(瓷磚)、ceramic bowl(陶瓷碗)。

×She studied ceramics in college.

She studied ceramics in college.

此句原為正確。常見錯誤是學習者誤加定冠詞 'the'(如 'studied the ceramics'),但 'ceramics' 作為學科或活動名稱時,通常不加冠詞,類似 'studied chemistry'。

×The shop sells many ceramic.

The shop sells many ceramics.

'ceramic' 作為可數名詞時,其複數形式為 'ceramics',用於指多件陶瓷製品。不可使用單數形式來泛指多件物品。
