×You will dehydrate if you don't drink enough waters.

You will dehydrate if you don't drink enough water.

「water」在此為不可數名詞,指「水」這個物質,不應使用複數形「waters」。「waters」通常用於指大片水域(如海域、河流)。

We dehydrated the fruits to make them last longer.

表達目的或意圖時,應使用不定詞「to + 動詞原形」(to make),而非「for + 動詞原形」。

雖然「dehydrate」可作及物或不及物動詞,但描述皮膚「變得乾燥脫水」這種通常非主動進行的狀態變化時,更自然地使用「get/become + dehydrated」。使用「dehydrates」聽起來像是皮膚主動執行脫水動作。

×This medicine will dehydrate you from the body.

動詞「dehydrate」本身已包含「從身體中去除水分」的意思,加上「from the body」是多餘且不自然的。
