常見錯誤

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

×He crews the ship.

He is a member of the ship's crew.

「crew」作為動詞時,主語通常是「一群人」或「團隊」,意指「擔任船員/機組人員」或「一起工作」。當要表達「某人是船員/機組的一員」時,應使用名詞形式,如「a member of the crew」或「He is a crew member」。動詞「crew」不用來描述單一個人擔任船員的動作。

×The crew are responsible for their own tasks.

The crew is responsible for its own tasks.

在美式英語中,將「crew」視為一個「集體單位」時,通常使用單數動詞(如 is, has)。雖然英式英語有時允許使用複數動詞,但學習者應先掌握將「crew」視為單數集體名詞的用法,以避免主謂不一致的錯誤。指代時也常用單數代名詞「it」或「its」。

×They crew the boat yesterday.

They crewed the boat yesterday.

「crew」作為規則動詞,其過去式及過去分詞為「crewed」,需加上「-ed」。學習者可能誤以為它是不規則動詞或忘記變化。

×She crews with a team of engineers.

She crews a team of engineers. / She works with a crew of engineers.

動詞「crew」是及物動詞,可直接接受詞,意指「為(船、飛機等)配備船員/組員」或「擔任(某團隊)的成員」。不需要加上介系詞「with」。若要表達「與團隊一起工作」,使用「work with a crew」更自然。

×He is part of crew.

He is part of the crew. / He is a crew member.

「crew」作為可數名詞,指特定的「一組工作人員」時,通常需要冠詞(如 the, a)或所有格(如 our, my)。「part of the crew」是固定說法,必須有定冠詞「the」。
