drink doing vs drink to do
- drink doing 通常用於描述「喝酒」這個活動本身，作為一種習慣或享受的過程。
- drink to do 則常用於表達「為了達到某個目的而喝酒」，強調喝酒的意圖或功能。
- 在表示「習慣性、經常性的飲酒行為」時，兩者有時可互換，但 drink doing 更側重活動本身。
- 在表達「為了慶祝、壯膽或社交等特定目的」時，通常使用 drink to do 結構。 EN: They drink watching football games every Sunday. 翻譯: 他們每個星期天都邊看美式足球賽邊喝酒。
EN:They drink to celebrate their team's victory.
翻譯:他們喝酒是為了慶祝球隊的勝利。

EN:She texted me, "Let's grab a drink sometime."

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Drink"?Which "Drink" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I drink a soup.
✓I eat soup.
中文的「喝」可用於液體和流質食物（如湯、粥），但英文的 "drink" 僅用於液體飲料（水、茶、咖啡、酒等）。湯、粥等流質食物需用 "eat"。
×I drank my medicine.
✓I took my medicine.
服用藥物（無論液體或藥丸）在英文中習慣用動詞 "take"，而非 "drink"，即使藥物是液體。"Drink" 會讓人聯想到享受飲料，而非服藥。
×He drinks.
✓He drinks alcohol. / He is a drinker.
單獨使用 "drink" 作為不及物動詞時，在英文中通常隱含「喝酒精飲料」或「酗酒」的意思，語境較為特定。若想表達一般的「喝」這個動作，通常需要加上受詞（如 water, tea）。
×I drinked some juice yesterday.
✓I drank some juice yesterday.
"Drink" 是不規則動詞，其過去式為 "drank"，過去分詞為 "drunk"。學習者常誤將其規則化，加上 "-ed"。
×Would you like to drink something?
✓Would you like something to drink?
在提供飲料的常見客套話中，英文習慣說 "something to drink"（喝的東西），將不定詞 "to drink" 放在 "something" 後面作為修飾語，語序與中文「喝點什麼」不同。
×This water is not for drink.
✓This water is not for drinking.
介系詞 "for" 後面接名詞或動名詞（V-ing）。此處表達「用途」時，應使用動名詞 "drinking"，而非原形動詞 "drink"。
