常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Clutter"?Which "Clutter" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×My desk is cluttering.
✓My desk is cluttered.
「clutter」作為動詞通常用於主動語態（someone clutters something）或被動語態（something is cluttered），不常用進行式來描述狀態。描述雜亂的狀態時，使用「be cluttered」更自然。
×Don't clutter your mind with useless informations.
✓Don't clutter your mind with useless information.
「information」在英文中是不可數名詞，沒有複數形式。使用「clutter」時，後接的物件名詞需注意單複數及可數性。
×He cluttered the toys on the floor.
✓He left the toys cluttered on the floor. / The toys were cluttered on the floor.
「clutter」通常不直接以「人 + clutter + 物 + 地點」的結構使用。更常見的是用被動語態描述狀態，或用「leave something cluttered」等表達方式。
×The website design is too clutter.
✓The website design is too cluttered.
「clutter」是動詞，不能直接當形容詞用。形容「雜亂的」狀態時，必須使用其過去分詞形式「cluttered」作為形容詞。
×I need to declutter the clutter in my closet.
✓I need to declutter my closet. / I need to clear the clutter from my closet.
「declutter」本身已包含「清除雜物」的意思，後面直接接需要整理的地點或物品即可，避免語意重複。若要強調「雜物」，可用「clear the clutter from...」。
×Too many icons clutter on the screen.
✓Too many icons clutter the screen.
「clutter」作為及物動詞時，後面直接接受詞（clutter + 地方），不需要介系詞「on」。此處「the screen」就是被雜物充斥的場所。
