用法說明
How is "Dive" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Dive"?
dive into doing vs dive to do
- dive into + V-ing / N 強調「立即、全身心投入」某個活動或狀態，通常指開始做某事時充滿熱情或決心。
- dive to + V 則較字面，表示「（為了某目的而）潛入、俯衝」，強調動作的目的性。
- 在非正式美式英語中，有時兩者可互換，但 dive into doing 更常用於比喻性的「投入」。 EN: She dove into researching the company's history before the interview. 翻譯: 她在面試前立刻投入研究這家公司的歷史。
EN:The eagle dove to catch the fish in the lake.
翻譯:老鷹俯衝下去捕捉湖裡的魚。
總結建議
建議區分使用：用 dive into doing 表示比喻性的「投入」，用 dive to do 表示具體的「為某目的而潛入/俯衝」。

正式寫作注意：在學術或正式商業文件中，應避免使用過於口語化的引述（如 "He was like..."）或填充停頓（如 "you know"）。建議改用更精確的動詞，如 "examine thoroughly"、"analyze in depth" 或 "engage fully in"。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Dive"?Which "Dive" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I dived into the pool yesterday.
✓I dove into the pool yesterday.
在美式英語中，動詞 "dive" 的過去式常用 "dove"。"dived" 雖在英式英語中正確，但在美式英語中較不自然。學習者應根據目標語境選擇。
×She dived in the book for hours.
✓She dove into the book for hours.
表達「專心投入、深入研究」某事物時，應使用片語 "dive into"，而非 "dive in" 後直接接名詞。"dive in" 單獨使用時意為「開始做」，後面不直接接受詞。
×The stock price dived down quickly.
✓The stock price dived quickly.
動詞 "dive" 本身已含有「急速下降」的意思，加上 "down" 是多餘的。應避免此類冗詞。
×He is diving to find the answer.
✓He is diving into the data to find the answer.
"dive" 作為不及物動詞表示「深入研究」時，必須與 "into" 連用，後面接探索的對象（如資料、主題）。單獨使用 "dive" 無法完整表達此意。
×Let's dive to eat.
✓Let's dive in and eat. / Let's dive into the meal.
表達「開始吃」或「開動」這個口語意思時，正確的片語是 "dive in"（不及物）或 "dive into"（及物，後接食物或餐點）。"dive to eat" 不符合英文慣用法。
