用法說明

How is "Compile" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Compile"?

compile + noun vs. compile + from + noun

  • compile + noun 表示「彙編、編纂某物」,直接將名詞作為彙編的成品或對象。
  • compile + from + noun 則強調「從某來源或材料中彙編」,指出資料的來源。
  • 當要強調最終的報告、清單或集合本身時,使用 compile + noun
  • 當需要明確指出用於彙編的原始資料、數據或來源時,使用 compile + from + noun。 EN: The librarian will compile a bibliography of modern Chinese literature. 翻譯: 圖書館員將編纂一份現代中國文學的參考書目。

EN:The report was compiled from data provided by several government agencies.

翻譯:這份報告是根據數個政府機構提供的數據彙編而成的。

正式寫作注意:在非常正式的學術或商業文件中,為求精確,可能會選用更具體的詞彙,如「aggregate data」(彙總數據)、「collate information」(校對整理資訊)或「assemble a report」(彙編報告),而非較為通用的「compile」。但在大多數書面溝通中,「compile」仍是完全適用的。

「compile」的對象通常是資訊、數據、清單或文獻,將其系統性地整理成一份文件、報告或書籍。不能直接用於將實體物品「收集」到某個物理空間(如圖書館)。正確用法是「compile A into B」,其中B是彙編後的成果(如書、清單)。
