常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Concerned"?Which "Concerned" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I am concerned about the safety of the building.
✓I am concerned about the safety of the building.
雖然句子本身正確，但許多學習者會誤以為 'concerned' 只能接 'about'。實際上，'concerned' 後面可接 'about'、'with'、'for' 或 'that' 子句，語意略有不同。'Concerned about' 表示擔心某事；'concerned with' 表示與...有關或涉及；'concerned for' 表示為某人感到擔憂。
×The concerned parents attended the meeting.
✓The parents concerned attended the meeting.
形容詞 'concerned' 放在名詞前後，意思不同。放在名詞前 (如 concerned parents) 意思是「擔憂的、關心的」。放在名詞後 (如 parents concerned) 意思是「相關的、涉及到的」。這裡想表達的是「相關的家長」，所以應放在名詞後。
×I concern about the rising cost of living.
✓I am concerned about the rising cost of living.
'Concern' 作動詞時，主語通常是事物 (sth concerns sb)，表示「使某人擔憂」。若要表達「某人擔心某事」，應使用被動語態 'be concerned about' 或使用 'concern' 的名詞形式 'have concerns about'。這裡想表達主語「我」的感受，應使用形容詞 'concerned'。
×As far as I am concerned, the plan is perfect.
✓As far as I'm concerned, the plan is perfect.
片語 'as far as I am concerned' 用於表達個人意見或立場，意思是「就我而言」、「依我看」。雖然文法上 'I am' 沒錯，但在這個固定片語中，口語及非正式寫作中更常使用縮寫 'I'm'。學習者常誤解此片語意思，以為是「就我所關心的範圍」，實際上它與「擔憂」無關，僅用於引述個人觀點。
×He looked concernedly at the broken machine.
✓He looked concerned at the broken machine.
'Concerned' 本身就是形容詞，修飾主語 'He' 的狀態，意思是「他看起來很擔憂」。'Concernedly' 是副詞，修飾動詞 'looked'，但用法較不自然且少見。在 'look'、'seem'、'appear' 等系動詞 (linking verbs) 後，應使用形容詞 'concerned' 來描述主語，而非副詞。
