用法說明
How is "Deliver" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Deliver"?
deliver something vs. deliver to someone/something
- deliver something 強調交付的「物品」本身，是較常見且直接的用法。
- deliver to someone/something 則強調物品送達的「目的地」或「接收者」。
- 當上下文已清楚接收者是誰，或焦點在物品時，通常省略
to。 - 在正式或書面語中，為了明確指定接收方，會使用
deliver to的結構。 EN: The courier will deliver the package tomorrow. 翻譯: 快遞員明天會送達包裹。
EN:Please deliver this message to the manager directly.
翻譯:請將這個訊息直接傳達給經理。
總結建議
一般情況下使用 deliver something 即可，當需要特別指明接收對象或地點時，則使用 deliver to someone/something。
易混淆對比
What is the difference between "Deliver" and similar words?How to choose "Deliver" vs alternatives?
deliver vs send
「deliver」強調將物品或訊息「送達」至特定目的地或接收者手中，常涉及完成最後一哩路的遞送。而「send」則泛指「寄送」或「傳送」的動作，不保證或強調最終送達的結果。
deliver vs distribute
「deliver」通常指將單一物品或訊息送達特定單一對象或地點。而「distribute」則指將多個物品「分發」或「分配」給多個對象或多個地點。
deliver vs provide
「deliver」常指透過某種行動或服務來「傳遞」或「履行」某物（如貨物、成果、承諾）。「provide」則更廣泛地指「提供」所需的物品、服務或資訊，不一定涉及「遞送」的動作。

EN:So she goes, "Can you deliver on that promise?"

語氣強調

EN:You need to deliver big time on this project.
翻譯:這個專案你必須要交出漂亮的成績單才行。
停頓填充
在思考或組織語句時，有時會用 "to deliver" 或 "delivering on" 作為短暫的停頓點。 EN: The key point is... to deliver... a clear message to the team. 翻譯: 關鍵是…要傳達…一個清楚的訊息給團隊。
EN:Our main goal, you know, delivering on customer satisfaction, that's what matters.
翻譯:我們的主要目標，你知道，就是達成客戶滿意度，這才是重點。
正式寫作注意：以上口語用法（如引述句式、重複強調、停頓填充）在正式報告、學術論文或商業契約中應避免使用，應改用更精確、結構完整的句子來表達。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Deliver"?Which "Deliver" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×The company will deliver the product to you until tomorrow.
✓The company will deliver the product to you by tomorrow.
使用 'until' 表示動作或狀態持續到某個時間點，而 'deliver' 是一個瞬間完成的動作。表達在未來某個時間點之前完成，應使用 'by'。
×He delivered a baby yesterday.
✓He delivered a baby yesterday. (Context: He is a doctor/midwife.) OR The baby was delivered yesterday.
'Deliver a baby' 的主語通常是醫生或助產士。如果是一般人（如父母）談論嬰兒出生，更自然的說法是 'The baby was born' 或被動語態 'The baby was delivered'。主動語態 'deliver a baby' 暗示執行分娩動作。
×I will deliver you the message.
✓I will deliver the message to you.
'Deliver' 通常不接雙賓語 (deliver + 人 + 物)。標準結構是 'deliver something to someone'。少數動詞如 'give', 'send' 可用雙賓語，但 'deliver' 不在此列。
×He delivered a great presentation for the audience.
✓He delivered a great presentation to the audience.
表達向某人進行演講、報告或表演時，動詞 'deliver' 後面應接介系詞 'to'，表示對象。'For' 在此處表示目的或替代，不適用於此情境。
×We need to deliver our promise on time.
✓We need to deliver on our promise on time. OR We need to fulfill our promise on time.
'Deliver a promise' 不是常見搭配。'Deliver on a promise/commitment' 是慣用語，意為「履行、兌現（承諾）」。單獨使用 'deliver' 通常接具體事物（包裹、演講）。表達實現承諾，更常用 'fulfill', 'keep', 或 'honor a promise'。
×The pizza was delivered to my home at 7 PM.
✓The pizza was delivered to my home at 7 PM. (Correct, but often redundant) OR The pizza was delivered at 7 PM.
這個句子文法正確，但在語用上可能冗餘。如果上下文清楚（例如外送對話），'to my home' 常被省略，因為 'deliver' 通常隱含送到指定地點（家或辦公室）。學習者有時會過度指定已知資訊。
