用法說明

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

evaluate doing vs evaluate to do

  • evaluate doing 通常用於表示評估一個已經發生或正在進行的行為或過程。這裡的 "doing" 是動名詞,作為動詞 "evaluate" 的受詞。
  • evaluate to do 這個結構在標準英語中並不正確。"evaluate" 後面不直接接不定詞 "to do" 來表示評估某個動作。
  • 若要表達「為了評估某事而做某事」,應使用其他結構,例如 "evaluate something by doing..." 或 "do something to evaluate..."。
  • 在數學或程式設計中,"evaluate to" 後接一個數值或結果,意思是「計算結果為…」,這是一個固定且不同的用法。 EN: The committee finished evaluating implementing the new policy last year. 翻譯: 委員會去年已完成對實施新政策的評估。

EN:The formula will evaluate to a negative number.

翻譯:這個公式計算結果會是一個負數。

總結建議

建議使用 "evaluate + 名詞/動名詞" 來表示評估某事物或某個行動,並避免使用 "evaluate to do" 的結構。
