用法說明

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

customize + 名詞 vs. customize + 名詞 + to + 動詞

  • customize + 名詞 是最常見的用法,表示「為某人/某目的調整或修改某物」。焦點在於修改的對象(名詞)本身。
  • customize + 名詞 + to + 動詞 則強調修改的「目的」或「結果」,說明調整是為了讓該物能執行某個特定動作或功能。
  • 兩者意思相關,但後者更明確地指出了客製化的最終用途。
  • 單純的 customize to + 動詞(中間沒有名詞)是錯誤的結構,必須有受詞。 EN: You can customize the software interface. 翻譯: 你可以自訂軟體介面。

EN:You can customize the software to automate repetitive tasks.

翻譯:你可以自訂這套軟體,以自動執行重複性工作。

EN:We customize our service for each client.

翻譯:我們為每位客戶量身打造服務。

EN:We customize our service to fit the unique needs of each client.

翻譯:我們量身打造服務,以符合每位客戶的獨特需求。

總結建議

一般情況使用「customize + 名詞」即可;若需強調修改後的特定功能或目的,則使用「customize + 名詞 + to + 動詞」。

易混淆對比

What is the difference between "Customize" and similar words?How to choose "Customize" vs alternatives?

customize vs personalize

「customize」強調根據標準選項或規格進行修改,而「personalize」更側重於加入個人特色或元素,使其感覺獨一無二。

customize vs modify

「customize」是為了符合個人偏好或需求而進行的特定修改,通常有預設選項;「modify」則是更廣泛地指任何改變,目的可能包括修復、改進或適應。

customize vs tailor

「customize」與「tailor」意思非常接近,常可互換。但「tailor」更強調整體設計或內容從一開始就為特定對象或目的精準打造,如同裁縫量身訂做。

EN:I didn't just buy it off the shelf; I had it customized.

翻譯:我不是直接買現成的,我是特別訂製的。

EN:The software allows you to, um, customize the dashboard to your liking.

常見錯誤

You can customize the design.

'Customize' 是及物動詞,後面直接接受詞,不需要介系詞 'on'。

You can customize your profile here.

在美式英語的上下文中,應使用美式拼寫 'customize'。'Customise' 是英式拼寫,在要求美式拼寫的場合使用會不一致。

雖然被動語態文法正確,但當動作執行者明確且重要時(這裡是 '我'),使用主動語態更自然、更直接。

'Customize' 強調根據規格或需求修改功能或結構;'Personalize' 更常指添加個人標記(如名字)使其獨特。添加名字通常用 'personalize'。
