用法說明
How is "Convey" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Convey"?
convey + noun vs. convey + that-clause
- convey + noun 用於直接傳遞具體的訊息、想法、情感或物品本身。
- convey + that-clause 則用於傳遞一個完整的、陳述性的命題或事實，通常更明確地說明內容。
- 兩者常可互換，但 convey + that-clause 在表達複雜或需要精確說明的概念時更清晰。
- 注意：convey 後不直接接動名詞 (doing) 或不定詞 (to do) 作為受詞。要表達「傳達做某事」，需使用 convey + that-clause 或 convey + the idea/message/importance of doing 等名詞結構。 EN: Her tone conveyed her disappointment. 翻譯: 她的語氣傳達了她的失望。
EN:Her tone conveyed that she was deeply disappointed.
翻譯:她的語氣傳達出她深感失望。
EN:The report conveys the main findings of the research.

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Convey"?Which "Convey" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I want to convey my feelings to you.
✓I want to convey my feelings to you.
雖然這個句子本身沒有文法錯誤，但許多學習者會誤以為 'convey' 只能用於傳達具體或複雜的資訊。實際上，'convey' 也能用於傳達情感、印象或氛圍，例如 'convey sadness' 或 'convey a sense of peace'。
×He conveyed me the message.
✓He conveyed the message to me.
'Convey' 不是雙賓動詞 (ditransitive verb)，不能像 'give' 或 'tell' 一樣接直接受詞和間接受詞。必須使用 'convey something to somebody' 的結構。
×His words conveyed that he was angry.
✓His words conveyed that he was angry.
這個句子是正確的，但學習者常誤以為 'convey' 後面只能接名詞。實際上，'convey' 可以接 that 子句或 wh- 子句來引導傳達的具體內容。
×I will convey you at the airport.
✓I will pick you up at the airport.
這是常見的混淆。'Convey' 的意思是「傳達、運送（物品或資訊）」，而不是「（開車）接送某人」。接送某人應用 'pick up' 或 'drop off'。
×She conveyed about the new policy.
✓She conveyed information about the new policy.
'Convey' 是及物動詞，必須直接接受詞。不能像 'talk about' 或 'speak about' 一樣後面直接接 'about'。必須說 'convey something about...'。
×We need to find a way to convey clearly.
✓We need to find a way to convey the message clearly.
'Convey' 作為及物動詞，通常需要一個明確的受詞（如 the message, the idea, feelings）。雖然在特定語境下受詞可能省略（尤其在被動語態或上下文明確時），但學習者應優先使用完整的及物結構以避免語意不清。
